- 💰 Revenue: Modest — $3K - $7K/mo · MID tier · medium confidence, trajectory unclear.
- ⭐ Quality: 4.68★ across 1,538 reviews — solid.
- 📍 Market: Not yet charting in any of the 9 monitored markets.
- 📈 Growth: Insufficient signal to assess trajectory.
- ⚠️ Risk: Moderate — rating drift -0.92 ★ (recent 50 vs lifetime).
🎯 For competitors: Mixed picture. Worth competing if you have a clear UX or pricing edge — otherwise crowded segment.
💵 For acquirers: Estimated asking range 18-32× monthly = $90K-$160K. Portfolio play ($29K/mo combined) commands premium.

★★★★★ The PERFECT mtg app
Such an accessible UI; easy to build decks, goldfish them, catalogue and scan cards, and price check. I have tried many mtg apps in the past and this one solos all of them by far and away.…
★★★★★ Amazing MtG app!
The ability to scan the cards is so great! I can add them into collections and organize and see their worth. Highly recommend this app for MtG players!…

★☆☆☆☆ Not proper tcg pricing

★☆☆☆☆ Can’t export current prices
Spent weeks importing entire collection to find out it doesn’t export market price- only purchase price. That makes this app useless for anyone looking to export collections with current values. 0/10…
