Ask Specific Questions
Better questions get better answers:
❌ “Tell me about this ring” ✅ “Estimate the total gold weight and identify the center gemstone type”
❌ “Is this valuable?” ✅ “Provide an estimated retail value based on current market prices”
Troubleshooting
Analysis seems inaccurate
- Provide higher-quality images
- Include multiple angles
- Add known specifications
- Request professional-tier analysis
CAD model doesn’t match design
- Upload clearer reference images
- Specify design details explicitly
- Use 3D view from multiple angles
- Contact support for manual review
Cost estimates vary widely
- Market prices fluctuate
- Regional differences apply
- Labor rates vary by location
- Use estimates as rough guidelines
Next Steps
