Your whole shelf, down to the exact pressing.
Pressing, condition, cost and plays, kept with the copy you own rather than the album it came from. Records and CDs alike.

The copy in your hand
Point the camera at the label, the barcode or the runout. Kura matches your copy to one Discogs release, shows the evidence, and checks whether you already own it.
It tells you when it is not sure
When the evidence can't settle the pressing, Kura saves the copy as needs review and shows you what to check in the dead wax, the blank run-out after the last track.
A collection you want to open
By artist, by year, by what hasn't been played in a while. Condition, notes and photos stay with the copy.
What you paid, kept with the record
What each copy cost, when, and where. That's what you paid, not what it's worth, and Kura doesn't guess at worth.
Keep, or let go
Mark each copy keep, on the fence, or let go, with the pressing, the condition and your play history in front of you.
What you play, not just what you own
Log a spin, rate it while the record turns, and let Kura suggest the next side.
Your data stays yours
Sync your collection in and mirror durable facts back out. Kura builds on Discogs and never locks your collection inside itself.

Start with whatever clue you have.
Every copy offers different evidence, and Kura takes any of it.
Label
Photograph the label. Kura reads the catalogue number, the label and the country straight off it.
Sleeve
Front or back. Kura looks for the barcode first and reads the text when there is none.
Barcode
The fastest way in and the highest-trust match, when the copy has one.
Listening
Play the record. Kura identifies what it hears, then asks which format you own.
Search
Type the artist, the title or the catalogue number, for the copies the camera can't help with.
Dead wax
The one Kura doesn't read for you. It shows you which marks to look for, and you make the call.
What we have not built.
Here is what Kura doesn't do yet, so you can decide before you download anything.
- What your record is actually worth
- Real value needs real sold prices for your exact pressing. Free data gives the lowest asking price, which is close to meaningless, so this waits for a proper market feed.
- Reading the dead wax for you
- Kura shows you which marks to look for and lets you make the call. Reading a runout automatically is a hard problem, and we'd rather solve it than pretend.
- Reissue and availability alerts
- Knowing when the record you want turns up, or when a reissue changes the picture for one you own.
- The web version
- Your collection on a bigger screen. It needs a backend, so it arrives with the paid tier.
Shipped changes are listed, build by build, in the release notes.
Kura is in beta and not on the App Store yet.
