Scan. Value. Collect. Sell
Scan your cards, organize your collection, and see your next move.
Two short previews — iPhone and iPad. Nothing plays until you press play.
Explore
Five screens, and the whole of it.
More collecting. Less typing.
Photograph the front of a card, then its back. Arcavo reads it and files it, so a box of cards stops being a data-entry job.
- Front and back photos, or type a card in by hand.
- Tag a batch to the box, break or pack it came from, so every card keeps its cost.
Suggested lots
Cards that belong together, found for you.
A single is one sale. A group a collector already wants is another. Arcavo walks the collection looking for groups that are already in it, and shows each one as a lot you can look at before anything is listed.
One team, one group — team collectors buy the whole group.
Suggested lots are ideas, not offers. Nothing about a lot promises a sale, a buyer, or a price.
Where it lands
The two numbers a collection actually has.
What you are holding, and what you have realised. Both are screens in the app, and both are shown here exactly as the app drew them.
- owned cards
- 3,835
- recorded cost basis
- $11,805
- with no current value
- 22
Figures are the ones visible in these Arcavo screens from one collection. They are not a typical result, a projection, or a return.
iPhone and iPad
Scan on your phone. See the bigger picture on iPad.
The same collection, laid out for the thing you are doing. A phone in one hand and a card in the other; a full workstation when you sit down with the whole collection.
iPhone
Scan a card, check a value, take the next step — one hand, one card at a time.
iPad
Every listing, every sale and every card that wants attention on one screen.
How it works
Four steps, and the card is filed.
- 01
Scan
Photograph the front, then the back. Keep going — a batch is scanned card after card.
- 02
Review
Arcavo shows what it read — player, year, set, number, parallel — and asks about anything it could not resolve.
- 03
Organize
The card joins the collection with its identity, its photos, its cost and an estimated value based on recent sales.
- 04
Decide what comes next
Hold it, list it on your own eBay account, group it into a lot, or look at what grading would cost and return.
FAQ
Straight answers.
What devices does Arcavo support?
Arcavo is built for iPhone and iPad. The App Store listing is not live yet, so there is no download link on this page — when Apple publishes it, one will appear here.
How does card scanning work?
You photograph the front of a card and then its back. Arcavo reads the card from those photos and proposes an identity — player, year, set, card number, parallel — which you confirm or correct. Anything it cannot resolve is raised as a question rather than guessed.
Are Arcavo values estimates?
Yes. A card’s value in Arcavo is an estimate based on recent sales, shown with the evidence behind it. It is not an appraisal, not a sale price and not a guarantee, and a card Arcavo cannot price is left visibly unpriced rather than given a number.
Can Arcavo work with eBay listings and sales?
You can connect your own eBay account and create, revise and sync listings from inside Arcavo, and sold cards come back into the collection with what they netted. Arcavo is not affiliated with eBay and has no influence over how a listing performs.
What can Suggested Lots do?
Arcavo looks through your collection for groups that already exist in it — a team, a team’s rookies, a rookie class, an insert run, a product, pre-2000 vintage — and proposes each as a lot, with its cards and what the singles come to. You preview a lot before anything is listed.
Is Arcavo available now?
Not yet. Arcavo is coming soon to iPhone and iPad; the App Store listing is not live. If you already have an Arcavo account you can sign in from the link in the header.
