What this app helps with

A product's impact extends beyond the moment you use it. Carbon Scanner Pro introduces lifecycle carbon-footprint estimates for photographed items, including food, clothing, electronics and vehicles, to help frame questions about how an item is made and used.

An example workflow

Photograph an item clearly and review whether the recognized category matches it. Read the breakdown as a set of estimates and assumptions. When comparing alternatives, keep the function, quantity and expected lifetime comparable instead of comparing unrelated products by a single headline number.

Access and important limits

A photograph cannot establish a complete supply chain, manufacturing method or actual product lifetime. Estimates are not an independently verified lifecycle assessment or a certification. For procurement, reporting or regulated claims, use appropriately sourced data and qualified assessment.
