Identify Sports
Cards Instantly
Snap a card and StarBrain names the player, set, year and variation — then shows what it is really worth, how it might grade, and what it does to your collection's total.
Built for the cards you actually collect
StarBrain knows the sets, parallels and rookie designations that matter in each sport — so a card comes back named properly, not just guessed at. Hockey and soccer filters are in the app too, with the catalogue still filling in.
Three steps, one card at a time
No price guides, no set checklists, no guessing at which parallel you pulled. Frame the card and let the app do the rest.
Snap the card
Zoom and drag until the card sits inside the rectangle, then tap once. Already have a photo? Identify by image instead.
Get the match
Player, sport, set, year and variation come back with a match confidence — plus an AI condition estimate and a grade projection.
Add it to the portfolio
File it into a binder and the card starts tracking itself — comp value, movement over 30, 90 or 365 days, and your collection total.
More than an identifier — a collector's desk
Scanning is the front door. What keeps collectors in the app is everything that happens to the card afterwards.
Unlimited card scans
No daily counters to watch. Snap a whole box in an evening and file every card as you go.
Real-time market prices
Comp values built from recent marketplace sales rather than one stale catalogue.
AI grading estimates
A condition read and a projected grade band before you pay a submission fee.
Binders & portfolio
Group cards into binders you name yourself and watch the collection total move with the market.
Price tracker
Put a card on the tracker and open straight into its market analysis and source comparison.

Ad-free experience
Clean scanning with zero interruptions — nothing between you and the card in your hand.
Know the grade before you submit
Grading costs money and takes weeks, and most cards come back below what the owner hoped. StarBrain gives you an AI-assisted read on condition and a projected grade band first — so only the cards worth the submission fee get sent.
-
A projected band, not a false precision A projected band rather than a single number the app cannot actually know.
-
A pre-screen, whichever grader you use The estimate is about the card in your hand, not about one company's scale.
-
Quick Facts panel Condition estimate, sport, market trend and last sale at a glance.
-
An estimate, and it says so AI output can be wrong. It is a pre-screen, never a substitute for professional grading or appraisal.
Your collection, valued and organised
Every scan can go straight into a binder you named yourself — baseball hits, basketball rookies, the trade pile. The portfolio total moves with the market, so you always know roughly what the box in the closet is worth.
