Scan it. Sort it. Never lose track of your stash. KitSort is the catalog app for scale model, diecast, and kit collectors. Point your camera at a box, confirm the details, and it's organized — by collection, location, or build status. SCAN & ADD IN SECONDS Point your camera at any kit box or label. Smart recognition catches the kit number, manufacturer and scale — you just confirm. Prefer to type it in yourself? That works too. ORGANIZE YOUR WAY Sort by collection, storage location, or build status. Know what's on the shelf, what's still sealed in the box and what's mid-build on the desk — at a glance. SMART SEARCH & FILTERS Filter by category, brand, status or location. Twenty kits or two hundred, everything's two taps away. INSTANT DUPLICATE CHECK That kit looks familiar? Check your collection in two taps before you buy — no more finding out later you already have it. WORKS OFFLINE — ALWAYS Your catalog lives on your device. Search, add, and check for duplicates with zero signal — hobby shops, swap meets, convention floors, wherever the Wi-Fi doesn't reach. CLOUD SYNC & BACKUP Sign in to sync across devices and back everything up. Lose your phone, not your collection. SHOW OFF YOUR STASH Generate a shareable link for your whole collection — show fellow collectors, your feed or anyone who's curious how many kits you actually own. PLANS Annual and Weekly plans. Annual starting with a free trial. Cancel anytime. Made by collectors, for collectors — built to help you enjoy the hobby, not manage a database. If it feels like work, we failed. Questions?

MiniVault is the collection manager every tabletop hobbyist has been waiting for. Whether it's Warhammer, Age of Sigmar, Star Wars Legion, or any other system — manage your miniatures, stay on top of costs and painting progress, and document every project with photos. ORGANIZE YOUR COLLECTIONS Create as many collections as you want, sorted by game system, faction, or project. Set point goals and track in real time how close you are to a finished army. PAINT STATUS AT A GLANCE Every mini moves through clear stages: Unbuilt → Built → Primed → In Progress → Finished. The overall progress bar shows exactly where you stand — your pile of shame doesn't stand a chance. PAINTS & TECHNIQUES, DOCUMENTED Build your own paint library with brand, type, and color code. Assign the paints and techniques you used to each mini — so months later, you'll still know exactly how you nailed that look. COSTS UNDER CONTROL Log purchase price, accessories, and shipping for every mini. The cost overview breaks down your spending by collection, month, and category — honest, but fair. WISHLIST WITH PRIORITIES Plan your next purchases by priority, estimated price, and shop link. Once an item is bought, it moves straight into your collection. PHOTO GALLERY Capture your progress visually. Add photos with notes to every mini — from primed plastic to finished display piece. STATISTICS & INSIGHTS Dashboard with overall progress, model count, and total spend. Detailed stats reveal your most-used paints, favorite techniques, and more. EXPORT & BACKUP Export your data as PDF, Excel, or CSV. Create regular backups and get reminded automatically when the last one is too long ago. 100% OFFLINE & PRIVATE Everything stays on your device. No account, no server, no ads. Your collection belongs to you. MiniVault is built by a tabletop hobbyist for tabletop hobbyists.
