Trove: Thrift Value Finder

Scan any thrift find and instantly know what it's worth and what to pay.

Turn thrifting into treasure-hunting.

Ever held something at a thrift store and wondered, "Is this a steal… or a waste of $8?" Trove answers that in seconds. Snap a few photos of any secondhand item and Trove's AI tells you what it is, what it's actually worth, the price you should expect to pay, and even creative ways to give it new life.

Whether you're a reseller hunting for profit, a bargain-lover who hates overpaying, or just someone who loves a good find, Trove is the shopping buddy that knows its stuff.

WHAT TROVE DOES

• Identify anything — Point your camera at an item and get its name, age, likely origin, and rarity. Two AI models double-check every result for accuracy.

• Know the real value — See an estimated resale value and the typical thrift-store shelf price, side by side. The gap between them is your deal.

• Pay the right price — Stop guessing. Trove shows you when something's a steal and when it's overpriced.

• What to look for — Get quick tips on authenticity, common fakes, and condition issues before you buy.

• Creative repurposing ideas — Turn a fork into a plant marker or an old case into a jewelry holder. Tap "See it" to generate a picture of the idea.

• Find thrift stores near you — Discover secondhand shops nearby with ratings, hours, and reviews, then build a smart visit plan with stops along your route.

• Save and share your finds — Keep a history of everything you've identified, mark favorites, and share any item as a polished PDF by text or email.
