How it works

From shoebox to deck

  1. Scan your cards

    Point your phone at a card and tap. Free, with no limit.

  2. See what you can build

    Your cards are checked against a library of real decks, counting the key cards you own for each.

  3. Finish the deck

    Get the missing cards and what they cost at market prices.

Start from your collection

Decks you can build

Deck Brain starts from the cards you own and works backwards.

  • The deck you're closest to. Key cards owned and missing for every deck in the library, Commander included, without counting a copy twice.
  • Combos in your binder.Curator Over 100,000 known Commander combos, including those one card away, with that card named.
  • Any format. Build by hand with sideboards, with cards that aren't legal flagged in most formats. Curator adds generators built from real decklists.
  • Decks in and out. Paste a decklist, or with Curator a deck link that keeps the exact printings. Share yours with the community once it passes review.
Why players trust the numbers

Honest by design

No price, no number
A card with no price data shows a dash and stays out of your totals.
Numbers show their base
Completion reads like 12 of 14 key cards, and a win rate over fewer than five games shows a dash.
Filters say what they show
A filtered list reads like 12 of 340 entries.
Proxies held at $0
Scan and build with proxies. They're marked and never counted in your collection's value.
Commander brackets
Checked against Wizards' published limits, with the evidence cards. It gives no bracket number, since the official rubric includes things software can't measure.
Rue says when it isn't sure
Rue reads the exact text of the cards you name and is built to say when it can't confirm a ruling.

You'll see fewer numbers here than in other apps. Each one you do see can be checked.

Scanning

Everyone has the shoebox

The one in the closet you haven't opened in years. Point your phone at it.

For card shops and vendors

Buying cards at the counter or at a show? Arcane Ledger does the math while you scan.

Buy modeCurator

Scan a customer's cards and see two offers right away, cash and store credit, at the rates you set. Set different rates by card price, or save your usual rates and pick them with one tap. Change a card's condition and the totals update. Decline the deal and nothing is saved. Accept it and the cards go into your collection with what you paid for each one, or into an export file for the program you already use.

Export fileCurator

Scan straight into a file instead of your collection. When you're done, export it for TCGplayer, BinderPOS, ManaPool, Crystal Commerce, Shopify or a plain CSV, then share it or save it to your phone and import it into the program you already use. Uploading to TCGplayer needs a TCGplayer Level 4 seller account.

Buy mode and Export file are part of Curator.

Ask the app

Rue builds from your cards

Ask the app's AI advisor, Rue, in plain words. It works from an overview of your collection and the exact text of the cards you name.

  • A deck from what you own. Rue builds mostly from your cards, and every deck save or edit opens a review first. Free, three questions a day.
  • Rules from the card text. Built to check before it rules and to say when it can't confirm one.
  • Upgrades and trades.Curator Budget tiers priced from real card prices, and trade sizing. No daily limit in normal use, with fair use up to 100 a day.
While you're awayCurator

The Watcher

Cards get banned and unbanned, prices move and reprints land. With Curator the app checks those changes against your cards, decks and wishlist and puts what matters on your Home screen, one card at a time.

Curator also adds the monthly report and the full New-Set Radar lists. The weekly recap is free.

New players

Magic is a lot

Thirty-odd years of cards, dozens of formats and a rules document longer than most novels. This app starts at the beginning.

FAQ

Questions players ask

Where can I get it?
Google Play first, and the iPhone version is in testing. Join the Discord to hear when each one is out.
On Google Play now. The iPhone version is in testing and comes to the App Store later. Join the Discord to hear when it's out.
Is scanning really free and unlimited?
Yes. Tap to scan as many cards as you like, free for good. Curator adds Auto-scan for stacks.
Does it work offline?
Card names are read on your phone, so after a one-time card list download, scanning works offline. Prices, exact printings, Identify by photo and Rue need the internet.
I've never played Magic. Is this for me?
Yes. There's a rules crash course, a playstyle quiz, a practice game and Rue to suggest a first budget deck. No cards needed to start.
Is my collection private?
Your collection is saved on your phone. Every install signs in as an anonymous guest, and a guest's collection, decks, wishlist, game log and value history are backed up to our servers too. Adding an email in Settings, under Account & Backup, is what lets you restore them on another device. A guest account with no collection backup after 30 days, or no change to it in 180 days, can be removed from our servers. Your phone keeps its copy. When you ask Rue something, your question and a summary of your collection go to our AI provider. No ads, and we never sell your data. Details are in the privacy policy.
What languages does it speak?
Ten. English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, and Simplified and Traditional Chinese.
