Frequently Asked Questions
How does ScalpDecode AI work?
You take 4 guided photos of your scalp. Our AI analyzes the images and generates a visual profile with scores, observations, and personalized recommendations — all in about 2 minutes.
Is this a medical diagnosis?
No. ScalpDecode AI is a visual pattern analysis tool for personal scalp health tracking. It is not a substitute for a dermatologist or medical professional.
How much does it cost?
A single premium report costs $19.99. We are also launching a membership option for unlimited scans and trend tracking.
What do the SCV scores mean?
SCV (Scalp Classification Values) measure four key metrics: Oil Balance, Surface Cleanliness, Scalp Comfort, and Hair Coverage. Each is scored 0-100 with a description of what the AI observed.
How accurate is the AI analysis?
Our AI is trained to identify visible scalp patterns like oil, flakes, redness, and hair density. Results should be used as a reference for tracking changes over time, not as a clinical measurement.
Is my data private?
Yes. Your images and data are encrypted and stored securely. We do not share your personal data with third parties. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Can I track changes over time?
Yes. Your scan history is saved to your profile. Future scans are automatically compared to your baseline so you can see how your scalp health is trending.
What devices are supported?
ScalpDecode AI works on any modern smartphone browser (Safari, Chrome). For best results, use a device with a good camera and good lighting.
How do I get the best scan results?
Use natural or bright indoor light. Part your hair to expose the scalp. Keep the camera steady and follow the AI guidance during the scan.
Can I get a refund?
If a technical error prevents you from receiving your report, contact support@scalpdecode.com and we'll help. All other sales are final as the AI analysis is generated upon payment.
