SourceHound turns your phone into a reselling command center. SCAN TO PRICE Point your camera at a shelf and SourceHound identifies and prices every item at once — CDs, vinyl, games, movies, books and more — against real sold-price data from the top resale marketplaces. Not AI guesses: what things actually sell for. KNOW YOUR PROFIT Enter your cost and see estimated profit after fees, with a sell-through gauge so you know how fast an item moves before you buy. LIST IN A TAP Connect your marketplace seller account and list a scanned item straight from the app — title, price, condition and item specifics prefilled, editable before you publish. SOURCING THAT NEVER SLEEPS SourceHound watches the top resale marketplaces around the clock, scoring every new listing against live sold comps so the profitable ones float to the top of your feed. SOURCING AGENTS Turn a lucky find into a hunting machine. Deploy an agent and it combs the marketplaces for the same win, proposes what it finds, and waits for your approval — you decide every buy. PLANS Start free with 15 scans a month. Upgrade to Unlimited for unlimited scans and the 24/7 sourcing engine, or Pro for sourcing agents and AI evaluation. Subscriptions renew through your app store account; manage or cancel anytime in your account settings.
