Last month I fell down a weird rabbit hole. I was playing around with a meal tracking concept — but ended up pointing the camera at everything except food. It started as a joke. I scanned my chair, and it told me: “Looks fancy, but might be hurting you long-term.” That one hit. So I scanned my TV. My bookshelf. Even my plants... And suddenly, I started thinking bigger. I was thinking about the stuff around me: Where I live, what I touch, what I surround myself with, and what it all might say. That moment led to Aurascope. Aurascope is a camera-first mobile app that lets you scan people, places, and things — and gives each one an aura score out of 100. It analyzes over 500 visual and contextual signals — from lighting and composition to mood, context, time of day, and emotional cues. There are dozens of metadata layers in every scan. (I was a photographer in a past life BTW). It started as single-player: explore the world, scan your surroundings, build a collection, become more self-aware, and display it all on your beautiful spinning orbit. But users quickly asked for more: to view global leaderboards, compete with friends, and compare their scores — so that’s what we’re revealing now. The beauty is, and please try this yourself, there’s no long onboarding. No account needed. You’re scanning in 5 seconds and getting value instantly. This was especially important after seeing so many apps make users jump through countless hurdles to only be presented with a paywall. We've even heard people would love to see awards and prizes for achieving the highest score for the week or month etc., so we're looking into how to bring that to life too. I mean, who doesn't want to get paid for $aura farming? Anyway, if you try it, we would LOVE your feedback. Let me know what you scan first — your mug, your desk, your dog, your ex’s hoodie on your desk (we’ve seen it all). This is just the beginning. Thanks for reading!
