Show HN: Omi – A Fast Pokémon Card Scanner

1•crovillas•1h ago
Hi HN, I built Omi — a simple way to scan Pokémon cards with your phone and get instant results: name, set, and current market price. I made this because managing a collection was a pain. Manually typing card names into TCGPlayer or eBay takes forever, and existing apps were either slow or clunky. Omi uses on-device image recognition and a lightweight model fine-tuned on thousands of Pokémon card images. It does: Card detection — even with uneven lighting or slightly rotated cards Real-time lookup — low-latency match against a database of ~15k cards Pricing — live price pulls from multiple marketplaces The hardest part was getting good accuracy with cards that look nearly identical across different sets (hello, Pikachu variants). I ended up adding edge detection + set symbol recognition as a second pass, which massively reduced false matches. You can try it here: https://tcgscanneromi.com . Would love feedback — especially around speed, accuracy on unusual cards, and ideas for features (bulk scanning? deck tracking?).
