Relic Roster keeps the whole record in one place: what each item is, what you paid, what it's worth, how it's authenticated, where it's stored, and who's owned it. For signed jerseys, autographed photos, game-used gear, cards, and everything else you collect.
Record the athlete, team, sport, item type, year and condition for every piece, along with purchase price, purchase date, where you bought it, and storage location. Add multiple photos and notes to each item so the full record lives in one place.
Attach certificates of authenticity, and record the authentication or grading company, certification number, and grade. Document ownership history and provenance notes for each item, the kind of paper trail that matters for insurance and resale.
Record the purchase price and maintain an estimated value for each item yourself, based on your own research or an appraisal. Your collection total reflects the values you've entered: a reliable, collector-maintained figure, not a live feed.
Generate a report with photos, item details, authentication information, and current values for your whole collection, formatted for an insurance provider. Insurance-ready exports are available on the Pro and Elite plans. Relic Roster documents your collection; it isn't an insurance provider itself.
Record a storage location for every item. As a collection grows across display cases, safes, or storage units, knowing exactly where each piece lives keeps a large collection manageable.
Each item gets a unique RR ID when you add it. It stays with the collectible and keeps its record together over time, which matters most when an item eventually changes hands.
Sold or gifted an item to another Relic Roster collector? Transfer it and its RR ID to them. The recipient accepts, the item moves to their roster, and its ownership history carries over.
Export your full collection to CSV on any plan. Already tracking things in a spreadsheet? Import it in bulk on the Pro and Elite plans and stop re-typing every row by hand.
Sports memorabilia collection management is the ongoing work of keeping a useful record of everything you own: what each item is, what you paid, what it's worth now, how it's authenticated, where it's stored, and how ownership has changed over time. Done well, it keeps photos, documents, and values together so the collection is easy to insure, sell, or pass down when the time comes.
Relic Roster combines traditional collection management with AI-assisted cataloging. Photograph an item and the scanner identifies details like player, team, sport, year, condition, and (for graded or authenticated pieces) the grading company, grade, and certification number, then pre-fills the item form for you to review and save. Every plan gets AI scanning, including Free.
Traditional Collection Management
AI-Assisted Workflow
This is the information that makes a record useful over time, no matter what you use to track it.
Relic Roster tracks every field above on each item's record, including photos. For graded or authenticated pieces, the certification number and grading details live on that same record instead of a separate file.
For a short list of items and prices, yes. Here's where a spreadsheet starts costing you time as a collection grows. For a fuller breakdown, see the guide on spreadsheets vs. a collection app.

Dig into the parts that matter most: AI scanning, purchase price & estimated value, authentication and provenance, Relic Roster IDs, ownership transfers, and Collector Showcases. Already tracking things in a spreadsheet? Here's how to import your collection. Or start with the step-by-step guide to managing a collection.
It's the ongoing work of keeping a useful record for every item: what it is, what you paid, its condition, where it's stored, its authentication or grading details, its current value, and how ownership has changed. Instead of spreadsheets, phone photos, and folders of paperwork, a tool like Relic Roster keeps all of that attached to each item and searchable in one place.
The most reliable approach is a structured record for every item: what it is, what you paid, its condition, where it's stored, any authentication or grading details, and its current estimated value, along with photos. A small collection can get by tracking that in a spreadsheet, but as a collection grows, purpose-built software that keeps photos, documentation, and values attached to each item's record becomes far easier to maintain than scattered files.
Start by giving every item a clear, descriptive name, then record the player, team, sport, item type, year and condition. Add what you paid, when you acquired it, and where you bought it, along with a storage location and photos from multiple angles. Relic Roster's AI scanner can identify many of these details from a photo and pre-fill the record, or you can import an existing spreadsheet in bulk on the Pro and Elite plans.
At minimum: player or athlete, team, sport, item type, year, and condition. Add purchase price, date acquired, and where you bought it for a complete acquisition history. For authenticated or graded items, record the authentication or grading company, certification number, and grade. Round it out with a storage location, photos, notes, and a current estimated value. That combination covers organization, valuation, and documentation in one record.
Record a purchase price and an estimated value for each item, and revisit that estimate periodically using your own research, an appraisal, or recent comparable sales you look up yourself. Relic Roster stores what you enter and totals it for you; it doesn't generate the number for you. Your collection's total value is the sum of what you've recorded (not a live feed), so it stays accurate only if you revisit values from time to time.
Keep authentication documentation attached to the specific item it belongs to, not in a separate folder you have to cross-reference later. Record the authentication or grading company (PSA, BGS, SGC, JSA, Beckett Authentication, or another authority), the certification number, and the grade, and attach a photo of the certificate or slab to the item's record. That way the documentation and the item stay together permanently.
An insurer or broker generally wants photos, a description of each item, its condition, authentication details, and a current estimated value for your collection. Relic Roster's Pro and Elite plans pull that together into one report (photos, item details, condition, authentication information, and the values you've recorded) directly from your existing item records, so you have an organized record to share when arranging coverage. Requirements vary by provider, and Relic Roster does not sell insurance itself.
Yes. Relic Roster catalogs sports cards (raw and graded) alongside broader memorabilia (jerseys, autographed photos, game-used equipment, helmets, pucks, bats, balls, and more) in the same collection, with the same fields, AI scanning, and value tracking for every item type.
Yes, on the Pro and Elite plans. Relic Roster imports a CSV file covering fields like player, team, sport, item type, year, condition, authentication and grading details, purchase price, estimated value, date acquired, purchased from, storage location, and notes. You can leave any fields blank that don't apply, and edit items further after import. CSV export is available on every plan, including Free.
Yes. The Free plan lets you track up to 10 collection items and includes 5 AI scans per month, manual item entry, a portfolio dashboard, and CSV export. No credit card required. Pro ($9.99/month) and Elite ($19.99/month) raise the item and scan limits and add CSV import and insurance-ready exports for larger, more established collections.
