# Introduction

**Magpie is where your card collection lives** — Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering and One Piece. Scan cards in, watch what they're worth on real charts, and trade with other collectors without anyone taking a cut.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Magpie is in closed beta.** Registration requires an invite code — see [Closed beta & invites](/getting-started/beta.md) to get in.
{% endhint %}

## Why we built it

Every collector we know runs the same duct-taped stack: one app to track the collection, a spreadsheet for what things cost, marketplace tabs open to check prices, and a Discord or WhatsApp group to actually trade — because nobody wants to hand 10%+ of a deal to a marketplace. Magpie folds that stack into one app, with two opinions baked in:

* **Prices should be honest.** Every value in Magpie is served by **MagpieOracle**, our own pricing engine: real sales first, a confidence level on every number, and "we don't know yet" as an acceptable answer. No wishful asking-price math.
* **Trading between collectors should cost zero.** The marketplace charges **0% — permanently**. We never touch the money, so there's nothing to take a cut of. Design choice, not a promo.

And one promise: **no lock-in**. Import from the apps you use today; export everything, free, the day you want to leave. We'd rather keep you with the product.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.magpie.gg/readme.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
