## What is The Penventory?

Penventory is a comprehensive catalogue for fountain pen collectors. Log pens, loose nibs and inks, with the detail a collector actually keeps track of and none of the spreadsheet.

Every pen holds its nib size and material, filling system, chassis and trim, release year, limited edition number, where it came from, what you paid, and up to twelve photographs. Your vault syncs with thepenventory.com on the same account, so it is on your phone at a pen show and on your laptop at home.

CATALOGUE YOUR COLLECTION
- Fountain pens, nibs and inks, each with full specifications and photo galleries
- Move a nib between pens and your loose nib drawer, and keep its history
- Organise pens into collections - rotations, showcases, an EDC tray - with your own themes and layouts
- Autocomplete that learns your collection, and duplicate protection on inks

PHOTOGRAPH A SHELF AT A TIME
- Bulk photo import: shoot a whole shelf, upload the batch, then decide which photo belongs to which pen, nib or ink
- HEIC straight from the camera roll, converted on the device
- Photos are sorted by capture time, so a batch arrives in the order you shot it
- Start a batch on your phone and finish it in the browser: it is the same staging area

INK, ROTATION AND MAINTENANCE
- Record what is inked in what, and see the whole rotation at a glance
- An inking timeline per pen, with how long each fill lasted
- Maintenance alerts when a pen has been inked too long, and one tap to log a flush
- A personal ink shelf with volumes, prices and notes, drawn from a shared ink directory

SHARE CARDS AND SWATCHES
- Turn any pen into a share card in three styles: Obsidian Gold, Archival Paper, Modern Studio
- Choose the hero photograph, size it, and include your notes
- Digital swatch cards for inks, exported at 3x for social, printing or your own records
- Save to Photos or send straight to Messages, AirDrop or Instagram

WHAT THE COLLECTION IS WORTH
- Valuation, spend over time, brand and nib breakdowns, and acquisition history
- Insurance and appraisal dossier: a multi-page itemised PDF for homeowners insurance or an estate appraisal (Penventory Pro)
- CSV and JSON export of everything, any time, or have the archive emailed to you

SCAN INSTEAD OF TYPE
- Scan a pen or ink box barcode and have the details filled in
- Unrecognised boxes you save are shared back, so the next collector gets the match
- Write NFC tags for stands, vials and show tent cards
- Macro nib inspector for grind and alignment photographs

A COMMUNITY, IF YOU WANT ONE
- An opt-in public profile - it is off until you turn it on
- Explore other collectors' vaults, leave comments, and compare stats
- Earn collector badges across six categories, and a rank that grows with the collection

BUILT FOR A COLLECTOR'S PHONE
- Browse offline; edits queue and sync when you are back
- Face ID or Touch ID lock on the vault
- Sign in with Apple, Google, or an ordinary account
- Ten currencies, and dates in your own format

PRIVACY
Your collection is yours. There is no cross-app tracking and no third-party analytics SDK - usage numbers are aggregate and hold no identifier. Export everything or delete your account outright, from inside the app.

PENVENTORY PRO
Pro unlocks the insurance and appraisal dossier and Pen Show Exhibition Mode, a full-screen tabletop showcase with printable QR tent cards.

Questions or a feature you want? There is a support form in Settings, and it reaches a person.
