AI Metal Type Identifier

Upload a photo of a metal object or piece of scrap and the AI suggests what metal it most likely is, with the clues it used.

Overview

Sorting scrap, checking a fitting or curious about something you found? Upload a clear photo and the AI suggests the most likely metal, such as steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper, brass, bronze, zinc, lead, silver or gold coloured metal, from its colour, shine, patina, rust or green tarnish, and any stamps or marks. A photo cannot prove what a metal is made of: plating, paint and alloys can look like something else. For anything valuable, confirm with a magnet test, a scratch or acid test kit, or a jeweller or assayer.

Features

Colour, shine and tarnish

Copper reds, brass yellows, aluminium greys, rust and green patina are the main visual clues.

Marks and stamps

Hallmarks, grade stamps and maker marks in the photo help narrow the answer.

Honest about limits

The answer comes with a confidence level and says when a simple test would settle it.

How It Works

1

Clean a small spot

Wipe off dirt so the real colour shows, and photograph it in daylight, close up.

2

Upload the photo

The AI suggests the most likely metal and the clues it used.

Confirm with a quick test

A magnet sticks to iron and most steel, but not to aluminium, copper, brass or most stainless kitchenware.
