# 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.

**Magpie is in closed beta.** Registration requires an invite code — see [Closed beta & invites](/getting-started/beta.md) to get in.

## 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.
