Identify and organize cards
Identify cards, save costs and photos, and prepare listing drafts with a Free account.
Example prompts
- "Identify this card from my photo and show the matching printings."
- "Save this card in my selling collection: quantity two, $18 cost per card, Near Mint."
- "Correct this saved card to the printing I selected, keeping its cost and notes."
- "Prepare a listing draft from the saved card and my actual photos."
Access and tools
Public text identification uses identify_card. A signed-in Free or paid account
uses search_catalog, get_card, search_card_candidates, identify_card_image,
save_card_photo, search_collection, get_collection_summary, create_collection,
add_collection_items, update_collection_item, correct_collection_card,
create_listing_draft, get_listing_draft, list_listing_drafts and
update_listing_draft. All signed-in actions in this page cost zero research credits.
Approval and expected results
Reading and identification need collection-read permission. Saving photos, editing collections and creating/editing drafts need collection-write permission and a user request to make that change. Identification does not automatically save a photo. Sports identification requires actual front and back photos; TCG cards need the front. If a client cannot transfer attachments, supported inline photo panels let you choose the original photo. Uncertain printing evidence stays reviewable.
Collection costs are USD dollars per copy. Collection summaries use saved records and values, not fresh prices or deduplicated physical inventory. Corrections clear the old card's estimate while retaining cost, quantity, ownership, condition and notes. Drafts are saved for review in Pulltrader; MCP does not publish them.
This connection supports single-card photos. Desktop scanner intake is available separately in Pulltrader.
