The core of Post Data

Built around adding the stamps you own.

Everything else — catalogues, albums, sync — exists to serve one thing: turning the stamps in your hands into a collection you can see, search and carry. Add a stamp in seconds, record the exact copy you're holding, and come back for the detail whenever you like.

Add a stamp in seconds

Quick-add or scan a stamp and it lands in your collection straight away — drop it in your Shoebox now, identify and flesh it out whenever you like.

One record per copy

Every physical stamp is its own record — its condition, its photos, what you paid and where it came from. Duplicates and trade copies stay honest.

As much detail as you want

Start with a name; grow into country, year, perforation, watermark, colours and varieties. Organise into albums and your own catalogues only when you're ready.

A model that matches how collections really work

The listing, the entry, and the copy in your album.

Most apps blur "the stamp as catalogued" with "the stamp I'm holding." Post Data keeps them separate — so one physical copy is described once and counted faithfully, duplicates and all.

TIER 1

Catalogue

The listing authority a number belongs to — defined and named by you.

TIER 3

Holding

A specific copy you own — one record per physical stamp, with its own condition and photos.

Capture & detail

Photos lead. The detail is there when you want it.

Scan a stamp with edge detection, keystone correction and crop, or add a whole swipeable gallery — front, back, detail, however many you like. Images are optimised on import, so a large collection stays light: roughly 2.4× more stamps per gigabyte without visible quality loss.

Organise & find

Three places to work — and instant search.

Collection, Albums and Search. Group holdings into ordered albums to flip through like a real album, tag them across themes, and find anything in a keystroke.

Albums, your order

Many-to-many and explicitly ordered — a copy can sit in "Birds," "British Commonwealth" and "1950s" at once, ready for a full-screen flip-through.

Tags across themes

Cross-cut your collection with free-form tags that ignore the catalogue structure entirely.

Search & filter

Free-text across names, countries, numbers and notes; filter by country, year, condition, catalogue, album or tag; sort by value when you've recorded it.

Yours, everywhere — or nowhere but here

Local-first. Sync only when you want it.

Post Data works fully signed-out: a fast, offline collection that lives on your device, even with thousands of photographed stamps. Sign in with Google and your whole collection — records and photos — syncs across your own devices. Sign out and the device returns to clean local-only.
