Refurbishment grading
Assign a consistent grade with evidence behind it, instead of one technician's judgement.
Hardware Diagnostics
Hardware Diagnostics — Grade a Whole Machine in One Pass
Wipora Erase Hardware Diagnostics tests 24 components of a laptop or desktop and produces one health report — CPU, memory, storage, battery, display, networking and peripherals. Fifteen tests run automatically; ten guide the operator through checks only a human can confirm. Run it from USB, over PXE, or across a fleet from the console.

Who It Is For
Find your team below.
Buy-back and trade-in
Confirm a machine's condition before paying for it.
Pre-sale QA
Catch a dead port or a worn battery before the customer does.
Fleet audits
Boot a room of machines over the network and collect every report centrally.
What You Get
24 tests in one scan
CPU, memory, storage, battery, display, networking, ports and peripherals.
Fifteen run on their own
Start the pass and walk away. CPU stress, memory patterns, storage seek and read, battery life, GPU, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, HDMI and more.
Ten guided checks for what software cannot judge
Keyboard feel, speaker output, touch accuracy, webcam, fingerprint reader and physical condition — guided step by step so any technician gets the same result.
Nothing is labelled "Fail"
A component that does not pass is reported as At Risk, with the reason. A refurbisher needs to know what is wrong to price the machine.
Missing parts are not counted against the machine
A laptop with no fingerprint reader has not failed a test. Those are reported as Not Available, separately from problems.
One clear summary
Every report shows the same five figures: Total tests, Success, At Risk, Warnings, Not Available.
One licence per machine
Not per test.
Certifications & Compliance
Grading records
Supports device-grading documentation for R2v3 and e-Stewards certified recycling, and asset-condition records under ISO 27001 asset management.
The hardware's own reporting
Component tests use the hardware’s own reporting and self-test facilities where available — SMART for storage, EDID for displays, TPM self-test for the system board.
How It Works
Boot
From USB, or over the network with PXE.
Select tests
All 24, or only the ones you need.
Run
Automatic tests run unattended; guided tests prompt the operator.
Grade

Deploy It Your Way
USB drive
One machine at a time. Boot from USB, run the job, and save the report to the same drive. Grade one machine or a whole intake batch.
PXE network boot
Many machines at once, with no USB to carry. Machines boot from the network and appear in the console ready for work.
Central console
Issue jobs to networked machines and watch progress live. Reports come back to one place automatically.

One Platform Behind Every Product
The same software, the same reports, whichever product you license.
Multiple deployment options
Boot one machine from a USB drive, boot many at once over the network with PXE, or drive a whole fleet from the central console.
Cloud console
One dashboard for every machine, drive, report and certificate. Track what was processed, by whom and when, and manage licences across teams and sites.
Signed, verifiable reports
Every report is digitally signed. Scan the QR code on any certificate to confirm it is genuine — no login required.
Global wiping standards
IEEE 2883-2022 and NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2, the current revision plus legacy patterns including DoD 5220.22-M, for policies that still name them.
Pay-per-Device licensing
One Device, one license. Buy what you need and use it when you need it.
