Aurascope is a camera-first mobile app that lets you scan real-world objects, places, and people to see how they affect your energy. Track your daily score, grow your collection, and compete with friends to stay in sync with your surroundings.
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!
great product! Our experience in Avatalk surely tells us this is gonna be a good one!
Aurascope is a fun, creative way to explore your energy through photos. Totally hooked!
Thank you all so much for your kind words, support, and amazing ideas on how to take Aurascope to the next level. You’re awesome. Love this community!
Obsessed with this app! Super fun to see the score of different things around my life and eager to get the highest score! Seriously so fun alone or with friends 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
I didn't know what to expect, but it's oddly satisfying. I started with a test scan and then had to start scanning stuff around me. Very interesting take on adding interest in people's surroundings in an unexpected way (and I suspect collecting a lot of world scan data as they do it :) I worked on one of the original vision AR apps - Layar - and I can see how this can become something pretty special. Congrats on the launch, and good luck!!
Such a fresh take on daily wellness tracking. Using scans to measure how spaces and people affect energy? Super creative concept. Congrats o the launch!
Hello team, solid idea and clean interface. Just a suggestion maybe add a journal style feature to reflect on energy changes over time. Great start!
Would be cool if we could scan a location before entering and get a quick vibe check score. Might be useful for choosing workspaces or cafes too.
This feels like a fresh take on mindfulness and self-awareness through tech. Super creative.
At first, I thought this was just a novelty app, but after using it daily, I’ve noticed I’m more mindful of my surroundings and how they impact my mood. Definitely recommend it!
Congrats on the launch @sabakarim- I’m already obsessed! Aurascope is bringing back the joy in taking photos of daily life. Such a fun idea!
Wow—this is such a creative spin on camera tech! The idea of visualizing the 'vibe' or energy of everyday objects is both fun and introspective. I love how it turns curiosity into self-awareness. Super cool concept—can’t wait to see where this goes!
Congratulations on launching Aurascope! The concept of tracking energy influence is intriguing. How do you determine the aura points for different objects and locations, and what metrics are used to assess their impact on users’ energy?
This is such a fresh and fascinating take on using a camera — turning everyday objects into reflections of personal energy is both playful and oddly insightful. Love how frictionless the experience sounds. Definitely scanning my workspace first!
It reminds me of those paranormal TV shows when they scanned the Ectoplasm. :D
I think that there is a group of people who would like to use it (Ghostbusters are back)
