How it works

Empty account to wealth tracking in 5 minutes.

Six steps. Most users get from signup to a fully-priced portfolio inside the first sitting.

01

Sign up free

Email + password. No credit card. Up to 50 items free forever.

  • Built on Auth.js — passwords scrypt-hashed before they hit the database
  • Session works on any device — phone, tablet, laptop
  • Add to home screen on iOS or Android for a native-app feel

02

Drop your collection in

Six paths to add items. Pick whichever fits how you got the inventory.

  • CSV import — drop a Collectr / Card Ladder / TCGPlayer / hobbyDB export, we map and bulk-add hundreds of rows in 30 seconds
  • Screenshot import — stuck in Beckett or PSA? Drop screenshots in. Claude AI reads them and adds every item.
  • Set browser — pick Pokemon / Sports / Star Wars / Marvel / Disney, then a set, tick the cards you own, drag-select for batch
  • UPC barcode scan — point your camera at any retail barcode for Funko / LEGO / sealed TCG / video games
  • TCG photo scan — snap a Pokemon / Yu-Gi-Oh / Magic / Lorcana card, Claude identifies it
  • Manual add — type anything in. For the one-of-a-kind pieces with no catalog match

03

See real-time value

Every item gets priced against live eBay listings the moment it lands.

  • Trimmed median across active comps — outliers removed so one $999 BIN doesn't skew the price
  • Real value, not catalog price — what the market actually pays today
  • Net-to-you view shows what you'd pocket after eBay's 13% fee + shipping
  • Marketplace Insights API upgrades this to true sold comps the moment eBay approves us

04

Watch it grow

Daily price refresh writes a snapshot to history. Every item gets its own chart.

  • Portfolio total sparkline on the dashboard — Robinhood-style hero
  • Per-item charts on the detail page — 1W / 1M / 3M / 1Y / All time-frame tabs
  • Asset allocation breakdown — see your category mix like a stock portfolio's sector weights
  • Per-row mini sparkline next to each holding on the dashboard list

05

Get alerts when it moves

Bluechip watches the market for you. You don't refresh, we tell you.

  • Wishlist target alerts — pick an item, set a target price, get pinged when the market dips below
  • Vault notifications — when a Funko you own goes 'vaulted' (price moonshot)
  • Significant move alerts — anything in your portfolio that jumps ≥10% in a week
  • Email + push (web push, native push when the mobile app ships)

06

Sell with AI listings

When the market signals exit, one click writes the eBay listing for you.

  • Bluechip drafts the title, description, suggested price from your item's catalog data
  • Connect your eBay seller account once — we list directly via the eBay Sell API
  • Pricing recommendations use sold-comp distribution: aggressive (top quartile), market (median), quick-sale (bottom quartile)
  • Live today — connect your eBay account once in Settings, then list any item in a click
