01

SlabScore

Live · Web app · free to start

Grading a card costs real money and months of waiting, and most of that spend is guesswork. SlabScore does the arithmetic first: what the raw card is worth now, what each grade is worth, and what the submission actually costs.

  • ROI before you shipLive market data and sold comps price the raw card against every grade tier, so submit-or-hold is a number, not a hunch.
  • Every major graderPSA, TAG, CGC, and BGS side by side — each service’s fees and turnaround folded into the same math.
  • Track what you sentLog submissions, grades that came back, and what they sold for. Over time it tells you whether your eye is actually good.

Binder Boss

Private beta · Web app · invite only

Most collection trackers stop at the card. Master-set collectors live one level deeper — first-edition shadowless holo is not unlimited shadow holo, and a checklist that can’t tell them apart can’t tell you what you’re missing.

  • By setEvery card in a set with every printing variant, ownership marked per variant, and a completion percentage that means something.
  • By PokémonPick one Pokémon and see every card depicting it across every era — the collecting axis no set list gives you.
  • By generationNine generations as a single master list, grouped by set, rarity, or Pokémon.

A shared space built for exactly two people. Pair by scanning a code, then keep something small going every day — a question you both answer, moments worth keeping, and a way to ask for things that never turns into a scoreboard.

  • A daily ritualOne question a day, revealed only once you have both answered, with a streak you build together.
  • Asks without talliesA shared request loop with Seen, On it, and Done. Deliberately no counters — it never keeps score of who does more.
  • Something to playParty and couple games plus paired date-night modes, tuned to the kind of relationship you actually have.

About the studio

Dead Center Studios is one person who designs, builds, ships, and supports every product here.

That constraint decides everything. There is no team to hand a half-finished idea to, so nothing ships until it actually works — and nothing gets built unless it is worth carrying alone. The result is a small catalogue of finished software rather than a long list of experiments.

The name is a grading term. A card graded dead center measures 50/50 — perfectly aligned, the hardest subgrade to hit. It is the standard the work is held to, and the reason the products lean on arithmetic rather than opinion: what a card is worth, what a grade returns, what you actually own.

Status on this page is stated plainly. What is live says live. What is gated says private beta. What is still launching says so, and what carries mature content is labelled before you click. A studio that overstates what it has shipped is not one you should trust with your collection.
