Get your list in

  • Import your spreadsheet — one tab per sport, reused columns, section titles and all. You choose which tabs to bring in and which column is which; it runs as a dry run first, and any import can be undone in one step.
  • Every part of the card — player, year or season, brand, set, subset, team, number, parallel, insert. Blank fields stay blank.
  • Serial numbers as numbers — 05/10 becomes 5 of 10, so "numbered /25 or lower" is a filter.
  • Grades and certs — PSA 9, BGS 9.5, FCG 8 split into grader and grade; cert numbers pulled out of your notes.
  • Autos and relics — on-card or sticker, signed in person or not, ink colour, and jersey / patch / bat as its own field.
  • The awkward ones — short prints, super short prints, errors and variations, base or insert, condition on a standard scale.

Organise it

  • Collections, nestable, for the way you actually group cards.
  • Spaces — saved views (filters, sort, columns) you can make and throw away without touching the collection.
  • Four lists — Collection, Inventory, Want list, For sale — keeping and selling kept separate.
  • Player list — the players you collect, so someone you are chasing shows up before you own any of their cards.
  • Duplicates grouped into the trade pile, with what the stack is worth.
  • Arrange by hand — drag cards into any order and resize the tiles; a stable item number on every card for labelling.

Value and reports

  • Value that adds up — weighted by how many you hold, with the median next to the average.
  • Honest profit — worked out only on cards where you entered both what you paid and what it is worth.
  • Value over time, tracked from the day you start, plus a catalogue-health view of what is missing.
  • Insurance schedule — one line per item the way an adjuster reads it, with a declared total; prints or saves as a PDF.

Photos

  • Front, back, the slab label — kept private and shown only to you.
  • Rotate and remove photos in place; set any one as the card's primary.

Share and take it with you

  • Shareable links — a read-only view of your whole collection or one space, for anyone, no login.
  • Export any time — a real Excel workbook or a CSV, with your filters applied, even while an account is locked.
  • Extra users (view or edit) with an activity log of who changed what, and a read-only API for your own site.

Private and secure

  • Two-factor is mandatory — not a setting you can forget to turn on.
  • Photos are off the open web — no link to guess or share.
  • Nothing is public unless you turn it on.
  • What you paid stays private — cost, sale price, storage and notes are never part of anything shared.
