What DCM Evaluates
DCM analyzes the same four key factors used by professional grading companies like PSA, BGS, and CGC.
Centering
Measures how well the image is centered on the card. We calculate precise left/right and top/bottom border ratios for both front and back.
Corners
Examines all four corners for whitening, dings, bends, or wear. Sharp, pristine corners are essential for high grades.
Edges
Analyzes all four edges for chipping, whitening, or damage. Clean edges without wear significantly impact the overall grade.
Surface
Inspects the card surface for scratches, print lines, staining, holo damage, and other defects that affect appearance and value.
DCM Grading Scale
DCM uses a 10-point grading scale aligned with industry standards. Each grade reflects the overall condition of your card.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is DCM grading the same as PSA, BGS, or CGC grading?
DCM provides AI-powered grading analysis that evaluates the same factors as traditional grading companies. While we're not a replacement for encapsulated slabs, DCM helps you understand your card's condition before deciding whether to submit to professional graders.
How accurate is DCM's AI grading?
DCM Optic™ analyzes 30+ condition factors using advanced computer vision. Our grade estimates are designed to align with industry standards. We recommend using DCM to pre-screen cards before submitting to traditional grading services.
Do I need to ship my cards?
No! DCM is completely digital. Simply take photos of your card's front and back and upload them. Your cards never leave your possession.
What photo quality do I need?
For best results, use good lighting (natural light works great), place your card on a flat, contrasting surface, and take clear, focused photos. Most modern smartphones work perfectly.
Can I use DCM grades to sell my cards?
Yes! Many collectors use DCM grades and reports to inform buyers about card condition. Our downloadable labels and slab images are perfect for listings. However, buyers typically pay premium prices for professionally encapsulated cards.
