Scan shelves, not just spines.
Point the camera at a shelf: RakeScan reads the spines, matches them against real buyback demand and hands you a pull list.
| What you learn | From a photo | From a barcode |
|---|---|---|
| A whole shelf | ✓ one frame | one by one |
| Spines worth a scan | ✓ flagged | — |
| The edition in your hand | ✗ a photo cannot tell it | ✓ |
| A price | ✗ never | ✓ the verdict, with its full data ladder |
flag first, verify always
It flags. It never prices from a photo.
A photo can tell you which spines are worth a closer look; it cannot tell you the edition in your hand. So Shelf Scan hands you a pull list instead of a promise, and the barcode verdict, with its full data ladder, stays the final word.
1 · Photograph
ONE FRAME
A whole shelf: estate walls, library tables, the back room nobody has scanned yet.
2 · Triage
FLAGGED
Spines matched against real buyback demand, not guesswork about covers.
3 · Confirm
BARCODE
It has the last word. Flags tell you what deserves a scan; the verdict still comes from data.
