One verdict. Five vectors. Zero tabs.
Realized comps, asking-price spread, sentiment, pop data, and a 12-month forecast — fused into a single Prism grade per deal. Built for the floor of a show, not a spreadsheet.
Five signals, fused. One verdict.
Drag the Deal Grader. Switch the Forecast horizon. The terminal recomputes spread and confidence in real time — same engine that runs on the floor at a show.
Sentiment elevated. Spread between asking and realized has narrowed three weeks running — late-cycle behavior.
01How Prism scores a card
Prism is the fusion layer that turns five independent signals into a single grade. Each vector is computed independently and weighted by recency and confidence; the output is a letter grade from A+ to F with a plain-language verdict and a confidence score between 0 and 1.
- Liquidity. Realized sales volume over rolling 7- and 30-day windows. Thin liquidity widens confidence intervals and caps the upside of a grade.
- Volatility. Standard deviation of realized prices over the trailing 30 days, normalized against the comparable peer set. High vol pulls a grade toward neutral.
- Floor Strength. How tightly the 5th-percentile of realized prices is holding. A rising floor is the strongest bullish signal in the model.
- Spread. The gap between the asking price you're testing and the 30-day realized median. The single biggest input to short-horizon grade swings.
- Momentum. Slope of the realized price series, blended with watchlist movers and forecast direction.
None of the five vectors can override the others on its own. A great spread on an illiquid card still grades B at best. A weak floor with elevated sentiment is the textbook "trim" signal.
02Why one verdict beats five charts
The founding bet behind SYND is that the bottleneck on the floor of a show isn't data — it's fusion. Anyone can pull up a TCGplayer recent-sales chart. Almost no one can hold realized comps, asking-price spread, sentiment, pop counts, and a forecast in their head at the same time, in five seconds, while the other party is waiting for an answer.
The Terminal collapses that work into one grade and one sentence. You can still drill down — every card on this page is interactive — but the default is a verdict, not a worksheet.
03What feeds the Terminal
Realized comps are aggregated from public sales venues across the major TCG marketplaces and refreshed every few minutes during US market hours. Pop reports are synced from PSA, BGS, and CGC. The sentiment input blends realized-vs-asking spread compression with movers breadth — it deliberately ignores social-media noise.
The forecast is a quantile model that returns 5th, 50th, and 95th percentile price paths over 1-, 3-, and 12-month horizons. It is not a prediction. It is a range you can use to reason about position sizing.
04Who the Terminal is for
If you're doing five-figure-plus volume per month, or if you're shopping a show and want to grade a deal before the other party finishes their pitch, the Terminal is built for you. Collectors with a single binder will get value from Vault and the Deal Grader without ever opening the deeper terminal views — that's the point of the layered design.
In-person trades, settled on a two-sided ledger. Both phones tap, both sides sign, the receipt writes to both Vaults.
