Card Sorting Machines – a Technology Older than the Automobile

The PhyzBatch-9000 card sorting machine may be new, but the underlying technology has been in use for more than 100 years.

Launch Day

After years of development, we are beyond excited to officially introduce our robotic card sorter to the world: the PhyzBatch-9000 trading card sorting machine!

If You Build It...

Exactly one month into our launch and we have already blown past our production quota! The reception from the LGS community has been unreal, and now come the challenges of production, scaling, and delivery.

Advanced Sort Mode

An “Advanced Sort Mode” or “Lot Creation Tool” has long been the most highly requested software feature from our customers. As of this week, we have delivered that functionality!

World Records and Elephant Seals

With production now underway for the PhyzBatch-9000 card sorter, we take a look at some of the impressive milestones achieved with our Beta Trial machines.

The $50,000 Sticker

There is so much that goes into the development of a product, most of which is unknown to the end user. One of these myriad elements is product testing; while necessary for ensuring conformity to safety and regulatory standards, it’s freakin’ expensive!

Production is Hard

We stand on the shoulders of giants, yet seem destined to make their same giant missteps! Production of the PhyzBatch-9000 automatic card sorter is in full swing, and we are learning many important lessons the hard way.

100 Machines

Production models of the PhyzBatch-9000 card sorting machine first shipped out in June 2022, and today we deployed our 100th machine!
