Fix espresso machines and grinders faster, with answers you can check
EspressoScanner is an AI assistant for the technicians who service commercial espresso machines and grinders. Describe the problem the way you'd say it in the shop and get an answer grounded in the manufacturer's manuals and parts books — with the manual and page it came from.
Answers that cite the manual
Every answer links the service manual or parts book and the page it came from, so you can check it before you order a part. When the manuals don't cover something, it says so instead of guessing.
Guided diagnostics
Start a session for the machine in front of you. It asks one question at a time, takes your readings — pressure, resistance, voltage — and narrows the fault down to the part and the fix.
Parts and error codes
Search tens of thousands of parts from indexed parts books by part number, name, or the words techs actually use — group screen, gicleur, klixon, relay — and look up what an error or alarm code means.
Fleet, work orders and invoices
Keep the machines you service in one place with their service history. Company accounts can write up work orders and send invoices to their customers.

Questions
What is EspressoScanner?
An AI assistant for technicians who service commercial espresso machines and grinders. It answers repair and parts questions from indexed manufacturer service manuals and parts books, cites the manual and page, and guides you through diagnosing a fault step by step.
How is it different from asking a general AI chatbot?
General chatbots answer from whatever they picked up on the web and often invent part numbers. EspressoScanner searches the manufacturers' own manuals and parts books first, links the page it used, and tells you when the documents don't cover your question.
Which machines and grinders does it cover?
Over 700 manuals, parts books and spec sheets are indexed, for brands including Nuova Simonelli, Victoria Arduino, La Marzocco, Mahlkönig, Mazzer, Eureka, Rancilio, La Spaziale, Compak, Sanremo, Synesso, Slayer. Coverage keeps growing as documents are added.
Does it understand shop terms?
Yes. Ask for a group screen, a gicleur, a klixon, a pop-off or a grinder relay and it searches for what the parts book calls it — shower screen, restrictor, safety thermostat, safety valve, feeder or electronic box.
Is there a mobile app?
EspressoScanner works in any phone or tablet browser today. iPhone and Android apps are on the way.
Can I trust the part numbers?
Part numbers are only quoted when they appear in an indexed parts book or catalog for that machine, and the source is linked. AI can still be wrong, so always check against the manufacturer's documentation before ordering.
