Point your camera and CardLens recognizes the card instantly. Recognition runs 100% on your device: no cloud, no accounts, and your photos never leave your phone.
100% on your device

Recognition runs with pretrained models bundled in the app: it detects and crops the card, computes a visual embedding (MobileCLIP), reads the name with OCR and searches by similarity over a catalog of ~36,000 cards. No servers, and your photos never leave the device.

Why this way

We wanted something fast, private and able to identify without relying on the cloud. No accounts, no subscriptions: open the app and it works. A non-profit project.

Prices and info instantly

Each card shows its set, number, rarity and language, plus reference market prices (Cardmarket in EUR and TCGplayer in USD). Save it to your collection with tags and notes.

Features

  • Private by design Identification runs locally with pretrained models. Your photos are never uploaded to any server.
  • Camera recognition It detects the card, reads its text and compares it visually to give you the most likely match in seconds.
  • Your collection Save scanned cards and check their set, number, rarity and info. Import and export as JSON.
  • Mobile and desktop A single app for Android and desktop, with the same experience and your collection always with you.
