01Pokémon card scanner, price check and free collection
Point your phone at a card.Find out what it's worth.
Pullworthy is a Pokémon card scanner and price checker, built in the UK for collectors anywhere. Photograph a card and it reads the set code and collector number straight off the picture, names the card, and leads with the raw price — what an ungraded copy actually sells for.
- ScanPhotograph a card and it names the exact print and shows what it is worth — raw first, graded copies underneath. 500 card scans free, for the life of your account.
- CollectKeep what you find: add any card to your collection, free, with no limit on how big it gets. A free account is the only thing it asks for.
- SellCards the site has graded can go up for sale in the public gallery: 10 free listings in total, for the life of your account, and no selling fees — no payment runs through us at all.
The read happens on our servers, not in your browser — your phone only has to take a photograph, which is why this works on any modern phone with no app to install. A free account names the card against the catalogue: 500 card scans, free, for the life of the account.

02 the scanner itself
Scan one now, on this page
This is the real scanner, not a picture of one. Take the photograph or drop one in and it reads the set code and the collector number, names the exact print and prices it — the same surface the “Scan a card” button opens.
Your first grade is free — no account needed. Then sign up for a free account and get another 25 grades, completely free of charge.
Drop your card photos here — front and back is enough to start.
Tap to select · JPEG, PNG, WEBP, or HEIC
To read the number we send a small crop of the bottom of your card — not the whole photo.

What comes back
The card
It reads the set code and the collector number off your photo and names the print you are actually holding — not a card with the same name from a different set. You never type a set name.
The raw price, first
The ungraded figure is the headline number on a card page, because it is the one that is true of the card in your hand right now. Everything else on the page is a hypothetical about a card you have not sent anywhere.
Then the graded ladder
What the same card fetches slabbed: PSA, BGS, CGC and TAG at 10, 9.5, 9 and 8. Grader-specific at 10, and one blended market figure below it — we say which is which rather than implying four numbers where there is one.
04what it is worth
What it's worth, grade by grade
More than 19,000 cards in the catalogue carry per-grade values at 10, 9.5, 9 and 8. Where a company does not issue a grade we say so rather than borrowing someone else's number: PSA issues no half grades, so its 9.5 cell reads “grade not issued”. Most price tools quietly fill that cell in.
| Grade | PSA | BGS | CGC | TAG |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | £412 | £388 | £331 | £302 |
| 9.5 | not issued | £240 blended | ||
| 9 | £186 blended | |||
| 8 | £94 blended | |||
Illustrative price matrix — the “grade not issued” cell is real product behaviour; the figures are an example.
05three ways a scan ends
When it isn't sure, it says so
A scan that cannot be trusted when it is wrong is worth nothing when it is right. So the read states are visible on purpose: named, unsure, or unread — never quietly filed as something it might be.
Set code and number both read. The card is named, priced, and that is that.
It shows you what it read and offers candidates. You pick. Nothing is filed on a guess.
It says so and gives you a search box. A wrong card you did not notice is worse than no card at all.
06the part the browser cannot do
CENTERING · MEASURED
Illustrative centering read and provider estimates — an example of what the app will measure, not a real card and not something this page does.
Grading and auto-scan belong in the app
Identifying a card needs a photograph that can be READ, and a browser takes those perfectly well — which is why scanning is the thing this website does, and does now. Grading needs a photograph that can be MEASURED: controlled focus, controlled exposure, a genuine full-resolution still rather than a video frame. Browsers do not hand those controls over. No shipped version of Safari implements the ImageCapture API at all, on any iPhone anyone owns, so on the device this product is actually used on the browser itself is the ceiling on how good a photo we are allowed to take. We are not going to build a grade on a photograph we were not allowed to take properly, so grading and hands-free auto-scan are the app's job — where the camera can be driven instead of asked.
The app is not built yet, so there is nothing to download and the Google Play button here is a placeholder rather than a store link. When it ships it will do the measuring — centering to a tenth of a percent, corners, edges and surface, mapped onto PSA, Beckett, TAG and ACE published standards. Estimates, as ever.
Grade estimates only — not affiliated with or endorsed by PSA, Beckett, TAG, ACE or The Pokémon Company. A slabbed grade is the only authoritative assessment of a card.
07the public gallery
Put a card up for sale, free.
A card the site has graded can go straight into the public gallery with its measured report attached — the centering, the defects, the four provider estimates. No more arguing about “near mint”: the evidence is on the listing. Listing is free, and there is nothing to pay when it sells, because no payment runs through us at all.
List up to 10 cards in the public gallery, in total — unlisting a card does not free up a slot.
Want more than ten listings, ever? That is what a seller subscription will be for. It is not on sale yet, so nothing on this page will try to sell it to you.
Pullworthy hosts listings and messages; it is not a party to any sale, takes no payment, and holds no money. Sellers, buyers and card authenticity are not verified — you are dealing directly with another collector.
08telemetry
What we are not going to tell you
Pullworthy is new. There are no star ratings, review counts or download numbers on this page, because we do not have any and inventing them is not something we are prepared to do. We are not going to quote you an accuracy percentage either — we have not measured one properly yet.
What we have measured
Three recent identification runs by hand: 5 of 5, 4 of 4, 3 of 3. Twelve cards. That is a spot check, not a study, and we will publish a real figure when there is one to publish.
How fast it is
About 50 milliseconds to first byte, measured on this build, served from the edge. It should feel instant because it is.
What it costs
500 card scans free for the life of your account. Your collection is free, and there is no cap on how many cards you put in it — the only ceiling anywhere near it is an anti-abuse one at a thousand added in a day. Up to 10 cards in the public gallery, free, in total.
Single-card scanning works in your browser right now, iPhone included, because the browser's only job is the photograph — the read runs on our servers. There is no app to install and no queue to join. Grading is the part that needs a camera the web will not let us drive, which is why it is the app's.
09before you scan
Questions
What do I get from one photo?
The card's identity and its price. Pullworthy reads the set code and collector number off the picture, names the exact print, and shows what an ungraded copy sells for — that raw figure is the headline number, not a footnote. Underneath it sits what the same card fetches graded: PSA, BGS, CGC and TAG at 10, 9.5, 9 and 8.
What happens when the scanner cannot identify a card?
It tells you. A card whose set code or collector number cannot be read cleanly is shown with what was read, plus a search box to find it by name instead. It is never filed silently as a card it merely might be.
Can I add cards to a collection, and is there a limit on how many?
Yes, and no. Any card the scanner names can be saved to your collection with one tap, and there is no cap on how big that collection gets — no plan check, no quota and no upgrade prompt sits on the route that adds a card. The only ceiling anywhere near it is an anti-abuse one that stops a single account adding more than a thousand cards in one day, and it clears the next day. Saving a card costs nothing; it is photographing one that spends a card scan, and a free account gets 500 of those for the life of the account. Adding a card you found by searching spends none at all. You do need a free account for a collection, because it has to be saved to something.
Can I grade a card on the website?
Grading is the app's job, and the app is not out yet — the Google Play button on this page is a placeholder, not a store link. The reason is the camera rather than the grade. Identifying a card only needs a photograph that can be read, which any browser can take, and that is why scanning works here today. Grading needs a photograph that can be measured — controlled focus and exposure, a genuine full-resolution still — and browsers do not expose those controls. No shipped version of Safari implements the ImageCapture API on any iPhone, so on the phone this product is actually used on, the browser is the ceiling on photo quality. We would rather wait for a camera we can drive than grade from a picture we were not allowed to take properly.
Is this an official PSA, Beckett, TAG or ACE grade?
No, and it never will be. Pullworthy is not affiliated with or endorsed by PSA, Beckett (BGS), TAG or ACE. What the app will produce is our own automated estimate of how those companies' published standards would likely score a card — not an official, submitted or slabbed grade. Only a paid submission to a grading company produces an authoritative grade. The graded prices this site shows you are market data for slabbed copies, which is a different thing again: it is what cards like yours sell for at each grade, not a prediction about yours.
How accurate is the grade estimate going to be?
We do not publish an accuracy percentage, because a number we cannot stand behind is worse than no number, and we are not going to start quoting one for software that is not out yet. What we can tell you is what the estimate is made of: centering measured by computer vision to a tenth of a percent, an assessment of corners, edges and surface, and a mapping onto each company's published criteria — approximate wherever a company does not publish exact rules. The evidence is shown on screen rather than summarised into a single number you have to trust.
Can I sell a card here, and what does it cost?
You can list a card in the public gallery once the site has graded it, free. A free account can publish up to 10 listings in total — unlisting a card does not give the slot back, so it is ten ever, not ten at a time. There are no selling fees, because no payment runs through Pullworthy at all — it hosts the listing and the messages, and you deal directly with the other collector.
Is Pullworthy free?
Yes, within the free plan's limits, and no payment details are needed. A free account gets 500 card scans for the life of the account, a collection with no size limit at all, and up to 10 listings in the public gallery, in total. Paid tiers lift the scan and gallery ceilings. Nothing on this page can be bought today.
