Snap, Deduct, Repeat: How AI Photo Detection Works
By The Let's Deduct! Team
One photo, a lot of value
When you upload a donation photo, Let's Deduct!'s AI looks at the image and identifies:
- The item type and category
- Its likely condition (Poor to Excellent)
- A fair market value range based on IRS guidelines
Why condition matters
Condition drives value. A "Good" winter coat is worth far more than a "Poor" one. The AI suggests a condition, and you can always adjust it before saving.
Tips for the best results
- Use good lighting and a clean background.
- Capture the whole item in frame.
- Add a note for anything unique or high-value.
It's the fastest way to build a complete deduction record without a spreadsheet.
