Start with a template made for your collection

Each template names the fields that tell one item apart from another and fills the drop-down lists with real choices: calibers, coin grades, stamp perforations, watch movements, wine regions. You start recording instead of designing forms. Every template can be changed, and you can build your own.

Firearms, Blades and Militaria: Ammo · Firearms · Knives · Militaria · Nihonto

Coins, Stamps and Paper: Coins · Paper Items · Sports Cards and Memorabilia · Stamps

Books, Music and Media: Books · Musical Instruments · Records and Media

Art, Antiques and Jewelry: Art and Antiques · Pens and Writing Instruments · Southwest Pottery and Jewelry · Watches and Clocks

Vehicles, Tools and Gear: Cameras and Lenses · Fishing Tackle · Motor Vehicles · Radios and Electronics · Tools and Shop Equipment

Toys, Hobbies and Nature: Rocks, Minerals and Fossils · Toys and Models · Whistles

Home, Household and Records: Home Inventory · Licenses · Recipes · Subscriptions · Wine and Spirits

What you can keep for every item

The details that identify it, in fields made for your kind of collection
Any number of pictures, each with its own notes. On a computer, drag pictures straight in from a folder.
Where it came from and where it went: who you bought it from, the date and the price, and the same when you sell or give it away
What it is worth: appraised, current and insured values, each with its date
Maintenance and event logs, such as cleanings, services, shows and competitions
Links to receipts, certificates, documents and web pages
Related items, in the same collection or another

Then print inventory reports with or without pictures, acquisition and disposition reports and reports you design yourself, see cost and value totals on the statistics page, and export to CSV for a spreadsheet.

New in Beta 2.3.1

Autocomplete in drop-downs. Type a few letters to find a value on the computer; tap to search the list on a phone or tablet.
Your whole collection as one file. Share Data packs the database and every picture into one zip to move between computer, phone and tablet.
16 new collection types, for 29 in all, each with three sample items.
Imports ask first. Before a template import would rename your fields, the app shows exactly what would change.
A native Apple Silicon build for newer Macs, alongside the Intel build.

Beta builds are for testing and may contain bugs. Back up your data and tell us what you find.

What's new in Beta 2.3.1

Private because it stays offline

NM Collector CP never connects to the internet. There is no account to create and no server holding your records, and nothing is collected about you or your collection. It runs on a computer that is never connected to a network.

For extra protection, turn on the encryption built into your computer: BitLocker on Windows, FileVault on a Mac, or disk encryption on Linux.

Moving your collection between devices is up to you. A USB drive, AirDrop or Quick Share keeps it on your own devices. If you choose email or a cloud service instead, the app reminds you first that your data will pass through that provider.

Why offline is more secure than cloud software · Privacy
