Pokémon Card Value Scanner
Point your camera at a Pokémon card and FlipAI identifies the set, card number, rarity symbol and holo pattern, then returns real sold prices for that exact card.

Take a photo of the item or scan its barcode if it has one. FlipAI reads the details that decide value in this category and prices the result against real completed sales, not asking prices. A scan takes about ten seconds.
- Set name and set symbol, plus the card number (e.g. 4/102)
- Rarity — common, uncommon, rare, holo, reverse holo, full art, secret rare
- Edition markers like 1st Edition and Shadowless
- Language and promo stamps, which move value dramatically
Pokémon pricing is decided by tiny details: the same Charizard art can be worth $30 or $3,000 depending on set, edition and centering. Scanning removes the step where most people go wrong — matching the wrong printing and reading a price that is off by two orders of magnitude.
FlipAI returns raw sold comps plus graded (PSA/BGS/CGC) comparisons, so you can see whether grading is worth the submission cost. For bulk, batch mode lets you run a stack instead of card by card.
What you keep after fees
A sold price is not profit. eBay takes around 13.25%, Poshmark 20%, Mercari and Depop about 10%. Run the numbers in the free reseller profit calculator before you buy or list, or check a single platform's schedule directly: eBay fee calculator, eBay profit calculator, Poshmark, Mercari, Depop, Whatnot.
Buying secondhand or online? Check the seller and the item first with our is it legit? authenticity guides, or use FlipAI as a Google Lens alternative that prices an item instead of just identifying it.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does a Pokemon card value scanner work?
It reads the card image — set symbol, card number, rarity and edition markers — identifies the exact printing, then pulls completed sales for that printing and condition. No typing set names or card numbers.
Can it tell a 1st Edition or Shadowless card apart?
Yes. Those markers are visible on the card and FlipAI checks for them, because they are usually the single biggest driver of value on Base Set cards.
Does it price PSA graded Pokemon cards?
It shows raw sold comps alongside graded sales so you can see the grading premium for that card and decide whether submitting it is worth the fee and wait.
Can I scan a whole binder of Pokemon cards?
Yes — batch mode on Power Seller is designed for stacks and lots, so you can price a binder in one session and pull out the few cards that carry the value.
Is the Pokemon card scanner free?
You get 10 lifetime scans free with no credit card. Unlimited scanning is $9.99/mo on Pro.
