How to Scan Cards
Use camera OCR to add or verify physical cards while keeping the review step in your hands.
How to Scan Cards
The scanner is review-first. It can read card names from a camera capture, but you still decide which cards are saved.
The Current Scanner Flow
Choose a card grid, open the camera, align cards with the guides, capture once, let OCR process the image, review each detected card, and save only the cards you trust.
ScryBrew records the scan result and marks uncertain reads for review. Weak or surprising matches should be corrected before they affect your collection.
List Capture vs Card Verification Grid
List capture means turning a non-copyable list, screenshot, or photographed decklist into text that can be imported and reviewed. Card verification grid means photographing physical cards laid out in a grid so ScryBrew can confirm that those cards are present.
Premium Exact-Printing Assist
Free OCR keeps scanning local and reviewable. Online AI Vision exact-printing assist is a paid path for reviewed captures when the model endpoint is configured. It should suggest exact-printing help, not bypass manual review.
