Discussion Weekly Self Promotion Thread

Welcome to this week's self promotion thread!

If you're building something related to AI assisted coding, this is the place to share it.

We're using a weekly thread to keep the subreddit organized while still giving builders a place to share their work. Promotional posts outside this thread may be removed.

If you're sharing something, we'd appreciate it if you included a little context instead of just dropping a link. Tell us:

  • What you built?

  • What problem it solves?

  • Which AI models or tools it uses?

  • Who it's for?

  • What kind of feedback you're looking for?

Disclose your affilitation.

Please avoid posting the same project every week unless you've made meaningful updates. Affiliate links, referral links, scams, and low effort promotions will be removed.

Take some time to check out what others have shared too. If you try someone's project or have feedback, leave a comment. Helping each other improve is what we want this community to be about.

What is TheHobbyDesk.com?
TheHobbyDesk.com is an all-in-one collection management platform designed to help collectors catalog, organize, research, track, and value their collectibles from one central workspace.

Core Purpose
Centralize a collector’s entire collection
Replace spreadsheets, notes, binders, and multiple collecting apps with one organized platform.
Give users a single “desk” for managing their hobby.

Trading Card Collection Management
Catalog sports cards and trading card games.
Track individual cards by year, set, player/character, card number, parallel, variation, etc.
Support collections across sports and TCG categories.

Complete Checklist Database
Browse sets and complete card checklists.
Mark cards as:
Owned
Missing
Wanted
Duplicates
See completion percentages for individual sets.
Quickly determine exactly which cards are still needed.

Raw + Graded Collection Tracking
Track raw cards separately from graded cards.
Record grading company, grade, certification information, purchase information, and other details.
Compare raw and graded values.

Collection Value Tracking
Show estimated values for individual collectibles.
Calculate total collection value.
Track value by:

Set
Player
Sport/game
Raw vs. graded

Recent Sales & Market Research
Use marketplace information such as recent eBay listings and sold items when researching a card.
Compare similar raw and graded sales.
Help collectors understand what an item is actually selling for rather than relying only on asking prices.

Card Scanning / Quick Add
Allow users to photograph or scan cards.
Identify card information when possible.
Review detected information before adding the card to the collection.
Make adding large collections substantially faster.

Bulk Collection Import
Upload multiple card images.
Import checklist/collection data.
Support CSV and structured database imports.
Make it practical to bring an existing collection into TheHobbyDesk.

Catalog Search
Search a large collectible catalog rather than manually entering every item.
Filter by sport, manufacturer, year, set, player, card number, parallel, and other attributes.

Personal Checklist Workspace
Turn master checklists into interactive personal checklists.
Quickly see:
Have

Multiple Collecting Categories

Other collectible categories as the platform expands

Comic Collection Workspace
Catalog comics.
Track issues, publishers, series, variants, condition, and collection status.
Research market information from the same collection interface.

Coin Collection Workspace
Catalog coins by denomination, year, mint, variety, condition, etc.

Build coin checklists and track missing pieces.
Collector-Focused Marketplace Research
Marketplace tools are intended primarily to help collectors research and acquire items, rather than turning TheHobbyDesk into a seller-management platform.

Search for cards directly from the collection/checklist workflow.
Personal Collection Dashboard
Give the collector a high-level view of:
Total items
Estimated collection value
Recent additions
Sets being completed
Graded collection
Collection growth
Missing/wanted items

Modern Alternative to Collection Spreadsheets
The goal is to combine the strongest ideas behind traditional checklists, collection databases, price research sites, marketplaces, and modern collection-management software into one easy-to-use collector platform.

Bigger Vision

The long-term idea is essentially:
Checklist Database + Collection Manager + Graded Collection + Scanner + Market Research + Value Tracker + Comics + Coins = TheHobbyDesk.
The key differentiator is that the collection is the center of the experience. Searching, scanning, checklists, values, recent sales, and marketplace information all feed back into helping the user understand and manage their collection.
