Ludex

Ludex is a mobile application designed for sports card and trading card game (TCG) collectors to quickly identify, value, and manage their collections. The core functionality revolves around visual recognition: users take a photograph of any card—whether it is a baseball, basketball, football, hockey card, or a TCG card from games like Pokémon or Magic: The Gathering—and the app instantly identifies the card’s set, year, player or character, and parallel or variant. Within seconds, it retrieves current market prices from aggregated sources, including recent eBay sales, to show what the card is worth. This eliminates the manual process of looking up each card individually across multiple websites. Beyond price checking, Ludex serves as a collection management tool. After scanning cards, users can organize them into digital folders, sort by sport, set, player, or grade, and keep track of their entire inventory. The app automatically stores scan history, so users can quickly reference which cards they own, what they paid, and the current estimated value. This helps collectors avoid duplicate purchases and monitor portfolio fluctuations over time. For those interested in buying or selling, Ludex simplifies the listing process. After scanning a card, the app generates a pre‑filled listing with the card's name, set, condition, and suggested price. Users can review and edit these details, then export the listing directly to popular marketplaces such as eBay. The goal is to reduce the time spent typing out card descriptions and searching for comps, allowing sellers to list cards faster than doing it manually. Another feature is the Hobby Trends section. Ludex analyzes anonymized sales data from eBay and other platforms to identify which players, teams, or card sets are currentl
