Authenticity is Everything

Has anyone tried this Verimarx Ai tool that's advertised on this site?

Was wondering if anyone here has used it here and had it work well? I can't find much information on this tool, supposedly it detects forgeries, just wanted thoughts on it.

"Does VeriMarx authenticate, certify, or verify autographs?

No. VeriMarx does not authenticate, certify, verify, or guarantee the authenticity of any autograph or item. The service provides analytical insights only and is intended to support informed decision-making, not replace expert review or third-party evaluation."

"Can VeriMarx tell me if an autograph is real or fake?

No. VeriMarx does not make definitive determinations. Instead, it highlights patterns, consistencies, and potential red flags that may help you decide whether further review is warranted."

AI has been brought up here before. Not recommended .It is or can be self confirming and can be led to believe anything. From the above quote from the FAQ I would wonder why anyone would even bother. Use your own experience, observations and files of known exemplars. Some trusted eyes in here as well if an assist is needed. No one will care more about your autographs than you.

VeriMarx is completely free for the next few months. It's only 4-5 months old, still learning, improving all the time, and I think it has REAL potential.

I've tested it and seen strong, consistent results in many cases, especially where it's learned an autograph from many exemplars of good and bad.

It doesn't fully authenticate, and the owners say they don't plan for it to. It analyzes the autograph for signs of authenticity and forgery, both generally and for the specific signer, takes the photo quality into account, and tells you what it sees as signs of potential forgery or authenticity, and tells you its confidence in its opinion.

Then you make your own decision whether to buy something, sell something with confidence it's likely genuine, or spend potentially $100s sending it to a TPA.

Even when they start charging, it'll only be $4.

It does what we tell collectors to do to help determine if an autograph is likely real or not. And like us, it will help people who use it become more knowledgeable collectors.

Users get their analysis privately, typically in 15 seconds or less after upload in my experience. As good as our opinions usually are, we'll never be able to do that.

The more free submissions you upload, the better it will get.

So use it, report on AML what it tells you, and give your opinions.

It reads the site. It'll learn from us.
