Decision intelligence built around the questions collectors actually face.
FlipForge is a Windows private-beta platform that turns authorized listings, user evidence, exact-card controls, market support, grading scenarios, and risk into an explainable candidate state.

The recommendation is only as reliable as the card behind it.
Year, set, card number, parallel, variation, grader, and grade are kept separate. Conflicts trigger review or rejection before evidence affects value.
Exact matching
Base, refractor, numbered parallel, variation, raw, and graded versions are not treated as interchangeable.
Conflict control
Ambiguous or contradictory records are blocked instead of silently averaged.
Completed sales, asking prices, and mismatches have different jobs.
FlipForge records provenance and classifies evidence as accepted, review-only, or rejected. The final traceback explains what influenced the outcome.
Strong exact-card completed sales support value.
Incomplete records and asking prices provide context.
Wrong grades, parallels, duplicates, and stale records stay out.

Test the economics before paying the grading fee.
The public calculator requires probabilities to total 100%. It does not silently normalize weak assumptions.
Scenario result
Probability total: 100%
Illustrative calculator. Real FlipForge guidance is designed to include identity, evidence quality, liquidity, and risk context.
What the Windows private beta is designed to do.
Capabilities may evolve during testing, but these are the core workflows under validation.
Natural-language search
Search in collector-style language and review authorized active-listing candidates.
Supported value
Keep completed-sale support separate from asking-price discovery context.
Confidence and liquidity
Expose evidence strength and market depth rather than hiding uncertainty.
Decision traceback
Retain identity choices, exclusions, warnings, and reasoning.
Outcome review
Compare recommendations with later results to improve calibration.
Local-first records
SQLite remains the source of truth; CSV is controlled import and export only.
Test the product, not just the idea.
Private-beta participants help evaluate whether the guidance is clear, useful, and appropriately cautious.
