How it works

Snap a shirt, a poster or a record. AI can suggest the band, year and tags, and you keep what's right.
- No. 2
It lives in your closet
Show it off, mark it open to trade, or list it for sale. Your closet is yours, in your order.
- No. 3
Every show and band gets a page
Tag a band or a show and its page builds itself from what members post. Bands can claim theirs for free.

Three promises
No algorithm
Every row says how it's sorted. Newest first, most liked this week, that kind of thing. Nobody pays to jump the line.
AI helps. It never makes art.
AI suggests titles, bands, years and tags. You keep what's right. It never trains on your posts, and you can switch it off.
One flat fee, same for everyone
When selling opens, every seller and every band pays the same fee. You see what you keep before you list. Selling is in private beta.

Questions, answered
What is MerchVice?
- The home for band merch. You post the shirts, posters and records you own to your closet, show them off, trade with other fans, and see who else has the one you're after. Every band and every show gets its own page, built from what members post.
What is First Print?
- First Print is our first run of members. Each one keeps a founding number on their profile, in the order they joined, for good. When the run is full, the next wave is Second Press, and after that members invite their friends in.
How does the tag dater work?
- You photograph a shirt's tag and its stitching. AI reads the tag, and you can fix anything it got wrong. Then we match the clues against a table of known tag details and give you a likely range of years, with every reason and where it comes from. The photos are read and dropped, never kept.
Do bands pay?
- No. Claiming your band's page is free. No band can pay to move up a row, and any spot that is ever paid for says Promoted.
Is selling live?
- In private beta. A small group of members can sell now. When it opens wider, there is one flat fee, the same for everyone, and you see what you keep before you list. Showing off and trading stay free.
How do I get in?
- Get a First Print spot while there are spots left, or get on the list for the next wave. A member can also send you an invite.
