## What is Spinwax?

Stop scanning records one by one.

SpinWax identifies vinyl from a photo — no barcode, no typing. Point the camera at a crate and keep shooting: covers, labels, runout codes. Every record comes back identified, priced and filed in your collection while you keep digging.

WHY COLLECTORS USE IT

• No barcode needed. A pressing from the sixties never had one. SpinWax reads the cover art, the label and the matrix/runout code in the dead wax.

• The exact pressing, not just the album. An original and a reissue can be worth ten times apart. SpinWax matches catalog number, year, country and label, and shows the other pressings with their prices so you can pick the right one.

• Market value on the spot. Every record comes back with an estimate based on what copies are actually listed for, so you know before you reach for your wallet.

• Duplicates flagged as you shoot. The app tells you when a record is already on your shelf, so you never buy the same one twice.

• Condition done properly. Disc and sleeve are graded separately on the Goldmine scale, and the value follows the grade.

YOUR COLLECTION, ORGANIZED

• File records into collections that match your real crates and boxes.
• A wall of covers or a detailed list — whichever you prefer.
• A dashboard for the whole shelf: what it is worth today, what leads it, how it moved over the last 30 days.
• Collection health: what needs a second look, what is missing photos, what is ungraded, where the duplicates are.
• Search, filter and sort by artist, year, genre, label, country, grade or value.
• Export to a spreadsheet any time. It is your collection and your data.

BUILT FOR THE FLEA MARKET

Bulk scanning was made for the floor: shoot record after record and let the queue price them in the background while the box total climbs. Rare finds are called out the moment they turn up, and everything is saved even if you walk out of signal.

TEN FREE SCANS

Start with ten free scans — no account needed. SpinWax Pro unlocks unlimited scanning, bulk mode, the cover wall and smart collections.

A bigger, gold scan button. The main action is now impossible to miss — in your library and behind the camera.

A calmer camera screen. Larger preview, a smoother zoom that settles on 1× in the middle, and Scan Mode moved to Settings where it belongs.

A new Collections screen. Reorder your crates, rename them, and see the records leaning on each one.

A clearer result after every scan: a bigger price, a proper condition picker, and a tab for other pressings of the same record.

Marking a record Sold now works from any record, not only from inside a collection.

Your shelves now appear as they load, instead of a blank screen.
