10 New Data Sources

Autocomplete for books, Pokemon cards, LEGO, retro games, cars, comics, coins, watches, and Hot Wheels — plus new collection types.

Autocomplete Everywhere

Adding items just got dramatically faster. Type a name and Owlect pulls details and cover images from the best source for your collection type.

  • Open Library — books: author, ISBN, publisher, year, pages, and cover.
  • Pokemon TCG API — Pokemon cards: set, card number, type, rarity, HP, artist, and card image.
  • Rebrickable — LEGO sets: set number, year, piece count, and box image.
  • RAWG — retro games: platform, publisher, genre, year, and screenshot.
  • NHTSA — cars: make and model from the US government vehicle database.
  • Comic Vine — comic books: series, issue number, year, and cover art.
  • Numista — coins: country, year, and obverse thumbnail from the world's largest coin catalog.
  • Hot Wheels Wiki — die-cast cars: series, year, designer, and images from the Fandom wiki.
  • TheWatchAPI — watches: brand, model, reference, year, movement, case material, and size.
  • Discogs — vinyl records (added in December, now refined with faster search and better metadata).
  • New Collection Types

    Eight new templates bring the total to 16 supported collection types.

  • New types — Pokemon Cards, LEGO, Comic Books, Books, Watches, Cars, Hot Wheels, and Retro Games join the original five.
  • Pre-configured fields — each new type comes with relevant custom fields already set up.
  • User API Keys

    Some data sources offer enhanced access with a personal API key.

  • Settings Page — enter your own keys for Rebrickable, RAWG, Comic Vine, Numista, or TheWatchAPI in the new Settings page.
  • Fallback Built In — keys are optional. Owlect uses shared keys by default, but your own key gives you higher rate limits.
  • Image Protection — user-uploaded images are never overwritten by external sources. Your photos always take priority.
