Ripdex

Ripdex is a Pokemon card scanner, price checker and value guide available as a free app for iOS and Android, alongside a free website. It lets a collector look up or photograph any Pokemon card and see its current market value. It is built for Pokemon TCG collectors who want to price a collection, check a trade, or value an old binder.

A user searches a card by name on the website or points the Ripdex app's camera at a physical card. On-device image recognition identifies the exact card, set, number and variant in under a second, and Ripdex looks up the live market price per printing variant from its daily TCGplayer data pipeline.

Ripdex can batch-scan a whole binder hands-free, track a collection with quantities, conditions and a running total value, and show 90-day price history charts with 7 and 30-day trends. It covers all international English Pokemon TCG expansions plus the full Japanese catalog, over 47,000 cards, and links directly to TCGplayer and eBay listings for each card.

Ripdex is completely free on iOS and Android with no scan limit, no paywall and no account required, and the web price guide needs no registration either.
