Overview

Ludex is a mobile app for scanning sports cards and trading cards, identifying them, and checking price information from a scan result or price report view. The site positions it as a tool for collectors who want to catalog cards, follow values, and move from scanning to listing without re-entering card data.

The product supports major card categories such as baseball, football, basketball, hockey, soccer, VeeFriends, Pokémon, and Magic: The Gathering. Source pages also describe workflow steps for organizing cards into a collection, tracking value, and publishing eBay listings from scanned card details.

Core features

Card scanning and identification

Use the app to scan sports cards and trading cards, then identify the card and see its details on the scan result page.

AI-based card recognition

Ludex says it uses machine learning and image recognition to identify card characteristics such as set, year, brand, and parallel type.

Price reporting

View estimated price, last sold price, and sales history in the scan detail and price report views.

Collection management

After a scan, add cards to your Ludex collection, sort them into binders, and track collection value over time.

eBay listing support

Prepare eBay listings from scanned card data, with titles, descriptions, and categories prefilled for review before publishing.

Hobby trend tracking

Check hobby trend content and browse cards or players that are trending on eBay according to the site’s hobby trends feature.

Practical use cases

  • Identify and price cards

    Scan individual cards to identify the set, year, brand, and parallel type, then review estimated value and recent sales data before deciding what to do next.

  • Catalog a personal collection

    Add scanned cards to a Ludex collection, sort them into binders, and monitor the value of a portfolio as it grows.

  • List cards for sale

    Generate an eBay listing from scanned card data so titles, descriptions, and categories are already populated before review and publishing.

  • Track hobby trends

    Use the hobby trends view to look for players or sets that are moving in the market and compare that context against your own collection.

  • Try the app before upgrading

    Start with the free scanning option when you need to check cards without committing to a paid plan right away.
