About MeatGrader
What MeatGrader actually does
A photograph, a clear quality read, in seconds. No certificates, no jargon, no marketing claims to wade through.
Labels are claims, not certifications. "Wagyu", "Prime", "grass-fed" mean different things in different countries, and the buyer is left to trust whoever printed the sticker. MeatGrader gives you your own read: photograph any beef cut and get a MeatGrader quality tier and 0-100 score, built from the factors that actually drive quality, marbling, color, texture, and fat. We are not a grading body and we are not affiliated with any certifier.
