Hi all,

I’ve been painting minis for a while and noticed that while there are plenty of apps that let you list your paints, very few help you actually understand your collection.

Things like:

which paints I actually use

which colors or brands dominate my collection

which paints I keep rebuying vs. never touching

how my collection changes over time

Right now, most solutions I’ve tried feel like static inventories rather than something that gives meaningful insight.

So I’m curious how others here think about this.

Do you:

actively track paint usage or trends?

wish you had better insight into what you actually use?

feel a simple list is already “good enough”?

This line of thinking is what led me to start building a small personal side project that goes beyond basic paint tracking and focuses more on insights, usage patterns, and stats. It’s still very early and very much shaped by feedback rather than fixed features.

Thanks!

I’ve put up a simple pre-launch page mainly to collect early testers and ideas (not to sell anything). If you’re interested, the link is here:

Even if you don’t check the site, I’d really value hearing what kind of information about your paints would actually be useful — and what would just be noise.
