Collect Detect is a desktop app and Chrome extension that work together to help collectors instantly identify graded, raw, and sealed collectibles on eBay — without the manual searching.

Our Bio

Research, Verify, and Compare Collectibles with Confidence

Collect Detect is a two-part system: a desktop app that runs locally on your computer and a Chrome extension that connects to it while you browse eBay. When you open a listing, the extension captures the page data and sends it to the desktop app. The desktop app processes the listing images using OCR and Vision API to identify certification numbers, then pulls official grading company scans and pricing so you can evaluate authenticity and condition without manual searching.

Our goal is to simplify the research process, reduce uncertainty, and help collectors make more informed purchasing decisions. Whether reviewing graded slabs, sealed products, coins, comics, or raw items, Collect Detect provides fast access to the information collectors rely on most.

bro i was opening like 6 tabs every time i wanted to check a listing 😭 this just tells me what i'm looking at instantly. PSA, CGC, raw — it gets them all. huge time saver for eBay scrolling

Mike Reynolds
Pokemon Collector

i sell a lot of sealed stuff and the variation detection is genuinely impressive. it catches things that aren't even in the title. saves me from having to manually dig every single time

Jason Kim
TCG Seller

didn't expect it to work for comics and sealed games too but here we are lol. i collect a bunch of different stuff and it handles all of it. actually super versatile 👌

Derek Alvarez
Collector & Investor

late night eBay browsing hits different with this on. used to have 10 tabs open trying to figure out what i was looking at. not anymore. just works in the background and tells me what i need to know

Chris Morgan
Sports Card Collector

picked up a Beckett slab from a listing that didn't even mention Beckett in the title 👀 that's when i knew this thing actually works. been using it every flip since

Evan Patel
eBay Reseller

flipping sealed is way less of a headache now. variations used to take forever to track down manually. this just surfaces them automatically while i browse 🔥

Ryan Sato
Sealed Product Seller

sellers leave out so much info lol. this fills in the blanks for me. i've been able to make faster decisions without second guessing myself as much. really cuts down the research time

Laura Bennett
Comic Collector

simple concept but the execution is solid. blurry photos, bad titles, missing info — it still figures it out most of the time. that's genuinely hard to do and it just... does it

Tom Harrington
Trading Card Collector

i don't have to stop and think "wait is this PSA or CGC" anymore lol. it's just right there. doesn't mess with my flow at all which is exactly what i wanted

Kevin O'Neill
Collector

runs quietly while you browse and just... catches stuff. caught a detail on a listing i totally would've glossed over. worth having on just for that 🙌

Brian Cho
Hopscotch Girls

use it for graded games and sealed stuff too not just cards. speeds up research a lot when you're hopping between categories. didn't realize how much i needed it until i tried it

Jordan Blake
TCG Collector

i go through a LOT of listings and this keeps up no problem. pulls up the important stuff without lagging or getting in the way. exactly what you want from a browser extension tbh 🚀
