Relicara

A collection-tracking SaaS I founded and built end to end. Monthly users grew 23× in six months.

Laravel • Vue.js • WordPress • OpenAI • AWS
The Relicara website

The problem

Serious collectors keep their records in spreadsheets, notes apps and camera rolls. None of these keep condition, price paid and current value in one place, and none of them show how a collection's value changes over time.

What I built

I designed and built the product myself, from the brand and WordPress marketing site to the app.

  • A catalog with custom fields, tags and a condition scale, so it works for any hobby, from cards to die-cast
  • Several photos per item, with thumbnails made automatically and location data stripped on upload
  • Value history that tracks a collection's total value over time, with every update dated
  • AI valuations and AI condition grading on the OpenAI API
  • Public or private collections, following other collectors, trading, and a wishlist that can match offers
  • Barcode scanning and export reports
  • Free, Pro ($9.99 a month) and Premium ($19.99 a month) plans, with 20% off annual billing

The result

23×
