Your report

One honest picture,
in plain English.

Two clear read-outs — how healthy it is, and whether it's really what the seller claims — plus every part at a glance. And when a fact can't be proven, Caliper says so, right on the page.

A used machine tells the truth about itself.
Caliper reads it — and won't pretend to know what it can't.

So simple, anyone can do it

Open it. Click once.
Read the report.

No commands, no know-how. Caliper opens one window with one button. Click it, and about 30 seconds later a clear report opens in your browser — automatically.

01

Open Caliper

Double-click to launch. One window, one button — nothing to figure out.

02

Click “Scan”

It checks the machine and asks permission to look a little deeper. About 30 seconds.

03

Read your report

A clear picture opens in your browser: healthy or not, honest or not — in plain English.

Made for the second-hand market

Run it before money
changes hands.

If you're buying

Don't get burned. See the device's real condition and catch inflated claims before you pay — then walk away, or negotiate with the facts in hand.

If you're selling

Sell faster, for more. Hand buyers an honest, verifiable report that backs up your listing — trust is what closes a used-gear deal.

Shops & refurbishers

Add trust at scale. A consistent, tamper-evident report on every unit — your “inspected & verified” badge, on autopilot.

The things a listing won't tell you

The questions you
can't ask a listing.

Caliper answers them from the device's own records — not the seller's word.

01Is the battery actually good — or faking a perfect 100%?Battery
02Is the drive worn out or close to failing?Storage
03Is it really the model, memory and specs they claim?Specs
04Was it quietly wiped to look brand new?History
05Any hidden faults buried in the machine's own error logs?Logs
06And when something can't be proven, it says so — never a fake all-clear.Honest
Why you can trust it

The only check that admits
what it can't prove.

Most “health checks” flash green even when they never measured. Caliper won't — a fact it can't verify is marked, clearly. And every report is sealed with a tamper-proof fingerprint, so a buyer or seller can confirm it wasn't edited. Trust, in a single file you can share.
