Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Probe, AI scene analysis, privacy, accuracy, and supported devices.
Probe is a forensic scene analysis app. You photograph any scene and AI reconstructs what happened — identifying objects, people, contextual clues, and building a detective-style narrative with confidence scores and annotated overlays.
Free users get 3 scene analyses per day. The count resets at midnight. No ads, no paywalls for the free tier.
Full-resolution photos are sent to the AI model for processing and are not retained after analysis. Only a compressed thumbnail and the text results (narrative, deductions, annotations) are saved to your case file history.
Anything — a room, a street, an accident scene, a messy desk, a historical photo. Probe works best with scenes that have visible objects, spatial context, and details to interpret.
Yes. We only collect your phone number for login. Photos are processed by AI and not retained. Analysis results are stored encrypted. All communication uses HTTPS. You can delete your account and all data anytime from the app.
Analysis requires a clear photo with visible details. Try again with better lighting or a different angle. If the problem persists, check your internet connection.
Probe sends your photo to an advanced AI vision model that examines every element in the image — objects, people, spatial relationships, lighting, context, and environmental cues. The model then constructs a forensic-style reconstruction: a narrative of what likely happened, individual deductions with confidence scores, a projected timeline, and annotated overlays marking key evidence on the original photo.
Probe uses state-of-the-art AI vision models, but analyses are probabilistic interpretations, not definitive conclusions. Each deduction includes a confidence score so you can gauge reliability. Accuracy improves with higher-quality photos that have good lighting, clear details, and multiple contextual elements. Probe is designed for curiosity and exploration — it should not be used as the sole basis for legal, medical, or safety decisions.
Probe is available on iOS (App Store) and Android (APK download). On iOS, it requires iOS 15.0 or later. On Android, it requires Android 8.0 (API level 26) or later. Any device with a working camera can capture scenes for analysis. You can also upload existing photos from your gallery.
Both. You can capture a fresh photo using your camera directly in the app, or upload an existing image from your photo gallery. Historical photos, screenshots, and saved images all work — the AI analyzes whatever visual content you provide.
Each deduction in a Probe analysis includes a confidence score — a percentage indicating how certain the AI is about that particular observation or inference. Higher scores mean stronger visual evidence supports the conclusion. Lower scores indicate the AI is making a more speculative interpretation based on limited visual cues. This transparency helps you evaluate which parts of the reconstruction are well-supported and which are informed guesses.
