AI identifies item & estimates value
Our AI identifies what the item is, gives you a Flip Score (1–10), and shows estimated resale value based on real eBay sold comps from the last 90 days. You'll know in seconds if it's worth buying.

Small habits that make a big difference in accuracy.

Good lighting
Natural light is best. Step near a window and turn off your flash. Flash creates hot spots that wash out brand details and logos — exactly what the AI needs to identify the item.

One item per photo
Scan one item at a time. Multiple items in the same photo confuse the AI. Isolate the item on a clean, neutral surface — a table, floor, or white sheet works great.

Include labels & tags
Show the brand. If the item has a label, tag, or model number visible, include it in the shot. Brand and model information dramatically improves identification accuracy.

Try multiple angles
Different angles = better ID. If the first scan doesn't nail it, try a different angle. Front, side, and close-up shots of distinctive features all help the AI get it right.

Common questions
Quick answers to what people ask most.
Pricing is based on real eBay sold listings from the last 90 days — actual completed transactions, not asking prices. It's a strong signal for what buyers are actually paying. That said, actual sale prices vary by condition, timing, and buyer demand. Always cross-check with current sold comps before making a big purchase.
PicZFlip works best with items that have active resale markets:
  • Electronics — phones, consoles, laptops, headphones
  • Collectibles — trading cards, vinyl, vintage toys
  • Vintage items — antiques, retro gear, mid-century finds
  • Clothing — brand-name, streetwear, designer, sneakers
  • Tools — power tools, hand tools, shop equipment
If you're unsure, just scan it. The Flip Score tells you whether it's worth flipping.
After scanning, scroll to the Launch Kit section. Choose your platform (eBay, Facebook Marketplace, Depop, or Poshmark), then tap Copy Full Listing. Open the platform, start a new listing, and paste. The title and description are pre-written — just add your photos and set the price.
