Smart Card Scanner
Point your camera at one or more cards. A custom ML model detects each one, auto-crops with perspective correction, and saves them into consecutive pockets. Distinguishes raw cards from graded slabs.
OCR Card Intelligence
Scan a card and BinderIQ reads both sides automatically. Extracts player name, year, set, manufacturer, card number, parallel, and serial number. Recognizes 25+ brands and 70+ sets.
eBay Card Lookup
Snap a photo to find prices and listings on eBay. Or search by card details after a PSA/Beckett lookup. See live listings, sold comps, and direct links to know what your cards are worth.
PSA & Beckett Lookup
Look up grades by cert number — auto-scanned from graded slabs, no manual entry needed. Returns grade, population count, and sub-grades for BGS. Auto-populates your card details.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about BinderIQ
Is BinderIQ free?
BinderIQ includes a 7-day free trial with every feature unlocked. No credit card required to start. After the trial, it's $0.99/month with Family Sharing included.
What devices does BinderIQ support?
BinderIQ runs on iPhone and iPad with iOS 17 or later. Your collection syncs automatically across all your devices via iCloud.
What types of cards does it support?
BinderIQ works with all sports trading cards — baseball, football, basketball, hockey, and soccer. It supports cards from every major manufacturer including Topps, Panini, Upper Deck, Bowman, Donruss, and Fleer. The ML scanner detects both raw cards and graded slabs from PSA, BGS, SGC, and CGC.
Does it require an internet connection?
Most features work offline — scanning, organizing, OCR, and duplicate detection all run on-device. PSA/Beckett lookups and eBay price checks require an internet connection.
How does the card scanner work?
BinderIQ uses a custom YOLO-based machine learning model trained specifically on trading cards. Point your camera at one or more cards — the app detects each card, auto-crops with perspective correction, and saves them into your binder. It distinguishes raw cards from graded slabs.
Is my data private?
Yes. BinderIQ has no third-party analytics and collects no personal data. All scanning and OCR runs on-device using Apple's Vision framework. Your collection syncs via your private iCloud account — we never see your data.
Does it support graded cards (PSA, BGS)?
Yes. BinderIQ can look up PSA and Beckett/BGS grades by certificate number. It auto-scans graded slabs to find the cert number — no manual entry needed. Returns grade, population data, and sub-grades for BGS.
Can I share my collection with friends?
Yes. Export any binder as a shareable file via AirDrop, Messages, Mail, or any share sheet destination. Friends can open it in BinderIQ. You control whether to include back images, notes, and financial data.
Is BinderIQ the best sports card collection app?
BinderIQ combines features that other apps split across multiple products — ML-powered card scanning, OCR text recognition, duplicate detection, PSA and Beckett grade lookups, eBay price checks, and iCloud sync. It's built specifically for serious collectors who want one app to scan, organize, and research their entire collection.
Can I check card values and prices in BinderIQ?
Yes. BinderIQ includes eBay Card Lookup — snap a photo or search by card details to see live listings, recently sold prices, and direct links. After a PSA or Beckett lookup, the app automatically searches for comparable sales using the card's name, year, set, and grade.
How do I check if I already own a trading card?
Open the Check Collection tab and take a photo of any card. BinderIQ uses visual fingerprinting to match it against every card in your collection. Results show match percentage, confidence level, and a link to the matching card in your binder. Works at card shows, trade meetups, or anywhere.
