About Skinscanner

Skinscanner was founded with a clear mission: to make reliable, technology-assisted skin awareness accessible to everyone.

The idea for Skinscanner originated in Germany, where a multidisciplinary team of software engineers, data scientists, and medical consultants began working on automated image analysis for dermatological education and early risk awareness.

During early development, the team focused on one central challenge: many people notice changes in their skin but delay seeing a specialist due to uncertainty, lack of access, or cost. Skinscanner was created to bridge this gap by providing fast, understandable, and non-diagnostic AI-based insights.

Skinscanner does not aim to replace dermatologists. Instead, it helps users better understand what they see on their skin and encourages timely professional consultation when needed.

Today, Skinscanner is operated by Skinscanner LLC in the United States and continues to evolve through ongoing research, technical development, and user feedback.
