Vinyl, LEGO, whisky, retro games, board games — and anything else you collect. Scan a barcode, and the record fills itself in. Insurance-ready in one tap, and never locked in.
Each catalogue knows its own vocabulary: a record has an artist and a Goldmine grade, a LEGO set has a theme and a box, a bottle has a distillery and a fill level. You are never typing into a generic form.
Artist, year, pressing, edition. Cover art fetched automatically.
Set number, theme, part count. Sealed, complete, or parts only.
Distillery, bottling, and fill level from neck to mid shoulder.
Platform, and how the market actually grades: sealed, CIB, loose.
Designer and publisher, with completeness rather than condition.
Coins, stamps, watches, comics. Give it a name, an icon, and a label for its second field — it then behaves exactly like the built-in five.
Slow adding is the loudest complaint about every other collection app, so this is the part Vitrio takes most seriously.
Live camera scanning for EAN, UPC, Code 128, QR and PDF417 — the sleeve, the box, the bottle.
Title, artist, year and cover art arrive from open catalogues. Only blank fields are filled — anything you typed always wins.
One barcode often covers several editions, so the runners-up stay on screen under “Not the right one?” instead of being silently discarded.
Batch mode keeps the scanner open with a running count, so a shelf becomes a catalogue in one sitting.
| Catalogue | Looked up in | Setup | How |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vinyl records | MusicBrainz + Cover Art Archive | No key needed | Barcode, or by album title |
| Whisky & drinks | Open Food Facts | No key needed | Barcode, or by bottling name |
| Board games | BoardGameGeek | No key needed | By name — BGG has no barcode index |
| LEGO sets | Rebrickable | Your own free key | By set number or name |
| Retro games | — | Manual | No open index exists, so you fill it in |
A duplicate warning before you buy a second copy — the reason people scan in a shop at all. It matches on barcode first (normalising UPC-A against EAN-13, which differ only by a leading zero), then falls back to the title within the same category.
Barcodes go missing, wear out, or were never indexed. When one fails, type the name instead — the form searches whichever catalogue covers that category and offers the matches it finds.
Shelf A row 2, loft box 3, the cabinet. Storage location, where you bought it, purchase date, notes and serial number — the details that matter later, when you actually need to find or prove something.
Collections get lost, flooded and stolen. The unglamorous half of a catalogue is the half an insurer will ask for.
The chart plots the values you have actually recorded. There is no invented market curve and no fake trend line — with one data point, Vitrio says so instead of drawing something decorative.
Free-text condition means “NM”, “near mint” and “Near-Mint” all coexist and none of them sort. Each catalogue offers its own established scale instead — and still accepts wording of your own.
A proper A4 document, not a screenshot: every item with its photo, purchase details, identifiers and market value, headed with your name and policy number.
Every field, RFC-4180 clean, opens in Numbers, Excel or Google Sheets — wishlist included. It is free on the free tier and it always will be. A catalogue you cannot get out of is a trap, not a tool.
A list of everything valuable you own, and where in your home it is kept, is not data anyone should hand to a start-up. So Vitrio never receives it.
There is no sign-up, no password and no profile. Your collection lives in your own private iCloud database and syncs between your devices — and nowhere else.
No analytics, no tracking, no advertising, no third-party SDKs watching what you collect. The catalogue lookups are the only network calls the app makes, and they only ever send a barcode or a title.
Share a piece or the whole collection as an image rendered on your device, handed straight to the normal iOS share sheet. Nothing is uploaded, and there is no public profile to be found.
That is where the good finds are, so “works offline” cannot be an afterthought.
With no connection, Vitrio saves what it has and finishes the lookup by itself the moment you are back online — filling only the fields still blank, so nothing you typed in the shop is overwritten.
Items keep the currency you bought them in, and the collection totals in the currency that actually dominates it — not whichever one your phone’s region happens to suggest. Where currencies mix, Vitrio says what it left out rather than adding numbers that don’t belong together.
Not just the buttons: condition scales, category names and the insurance report are translated too, with real plural rules — so Slovak and Czech say “1 položka” and “5 položiek” correctly. Vitrio follows your device language, and you can override it in the app if you’d rather read another.
Every feature above is on the free tier. What Pro buys is room and the insurance PDF — not the app working properly.
No card, no trial countdown
iCloud sync included. No ads at any tier.
