CardMill™ - A TCG scanner and sorter for players/collectors

New Videos: CardMill in Action!
about 1 year ago – Mon, Aug 18, 2025 at 11:43:21 PM

You’ve been asking for more demonstrations — and we’ve delivered! We recorded three brand-new videos showing CardMill handling real cards in different scenarios.

📹 Check them out here:
1️⃣ Alphabetical Sort – Watch CardMill sort ~100 cards from a prerelease pack of 6 fresh MTG packs into alphabetical order with 97% accuracy. No jams, no damage.

2️⃣ Sorting by Type (with Perfect-fit Sleeved Cards!) – See CardMill handle Perfect Fit–sleeved cards and sort them by type. Yes, it works even with sleeves!

3️⃣ Condition Testing – We take a closer look at the condition of the cards after a sort.

CardMill is built to be flexible, accurate, and durable — whether you’re sorting for play, cataloging for your collection, or pricing for trade. These videos give just a small taste of what the system can do, and we can’t wait to share even more as we keep testing and refining.

This is CardMill V1 prototype. We are actively in process of developing V2, our production model, and are exploring increasing speed, tray capacity, card handling, accuracy and much more. Currently V1 takes 1 hour to process 300 cards. We are targeting to get that down to 30-40 min per 300 cards. Thanks to our Kickstarter backer’s support we can invest more and push this product to new heights.

Thank you all for the amazing support, feedback, and ideas. Keep them coming! 💬

🎉 Ghost Edition Stretch Goal Unlocked! 👻
about 1 year ago – Fri, Aug 15, 2025 at 08:27:32 AM

We are thrilled to announce that CardMill has reached its $1.5M stretch goal, and what an amazing goal it is!

Since we announced it, the Ghost Edition of the CardMill has gotten a lot of attention and hype. And we get it! There's so much that happens within the CardMill unit as it scans and sorts your prized cards. The transparency we've revealed in its design lets you see what's going on inside the walls of the CardMill as it moves your cards from the hopper to the sorting tray. 

Now, with this unlocked stretch goal, you'll be able to select the Ghost Edition version of the CardMill during the post campaign backer survey. The Ghost Edition will be an optional $50 add-on, per CardMill you wish to have in the Ghost style (to cover the different materials and manufacturing costs).

If you purchased multiple units, you don't have to upgrade them all. Want one in green, one in red, one in blue, and two Ghost Editions? No problem — you can mix and match however you like, and you’ll only pay the $50 upgrade for the units you select as Ghost Editions.

This is your chance to make each CardMill your own and secure the transparent, limited-run Ghost Edition for the ones you want.

As previously announced, the Ghost Edition will only be available for this Kickstarter - we will not offer it again after Kickstarter orders are fulfilled!

One of the best ways to say "I was in on the CardMill from the very beginning!"

Thank You -- for helping us get here.

Hitting our $1.35M stretch goal to unlock Aaron Miller's artwork also brings us all that much closer to the next stretch goal - the Ghost Edition 👻 of the CardMill!

We are now, at the time of this writing, only about $65,000 away from the stretch goal so many of you are excited for. Feels like a long road to finish in only SEVEN DAYS left in our Kickstarter, but that's only an additional 162 more CardMill backers we need to get us there! 

Talk to your friend who's still on the fence. 
Talk to your playgroup at your local gaming store! 
Talk to your Aunt Caroline who's forgotten your birthday present for the last five years but still swears she thinks about you all the time! 

The CardMill Ghost Edition is well within reach but we only have nine days left to grasp it!
