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.

Example: 55/45 left-right, 52/48 top-bottom

Corners

Examines all four corners for whitening, dings, bends, or wear. Sharp, pristine corners are essential for high grades.

Checks: Whitening, fuzzing, dings, bends

Edges

Analyzes all four edges for chipping, whitening, or damage. Clean edges without wear significantly impact the overall grade.

Checks: Chips, whitening, roughness, nicks

Surface

Inspects the card surface for scratches, print lines, staining, holo damage, and other defects that affect appearance and value.

Checks: Scratches, print lines, stains, holo damage

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 a fast, professional alternative to traditional mail-away grading — delivering accurate condition assessments in seconds instead of weeks. Our DCM Optic™ AI evaluates the same factors as traditional grading companies, giving you a professional grade without shipping your cards.

How accurate is DCM's AI grading?

DCM Optic™ analyzes 30+ condition factors using advanced computer vision. Whether you're grading for your collection, preparing listings for sale, or simply curious about your card's condition, DCM delivers professional results instantly.

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. For maximum resale value, some buyers prefer physically encapsulated cards, but DCM grades are increasingly recognized as a trusted condition reference in the marketplace.
