Shine a light on what every spine is hiding

LumiLexicon /ˌluːmɪˈlɛksɪkɒn/ n.

From the Latin lumen (light, brightness): literally “full of light, shining”; figuratively, “clear to the understanding lucid, manifest.” And the Greek lexikon biblion (a book of words), from legō : to speak, and the Proto-Indo-European leǥ- : to gather, to collect. A gathering of knowledge, brought to light.

  • Gallery viewBrowse your collection by cover. Filter by genre, era, or author.
  • Know what it’s worthNot because you’re selling. Because you should know. Insurance, curiosity, estate planning.

Capabilities

Everything a book deserves

Smart Intake

Four paths into inventory — snap a photo, scan a shelf, read a barcode, or drop existing images. Every path leads to the same rich metadata record.

AI Identification

Computer vision reads covers, title pages, and copyright pages. Identifies edition, publisher, and printing — even pre-ISBN, pre-barcode books.

Market Valuation

Real comparable sales from AbeBooks and eBay. Condition-aware pricing based on actual market data, not list-price averages.

Marketplace Listings

Generate platform-specific copy for eBay, AbeBooks, Amazon, and Etsy. Cross-list rare and unique titles everywhere they sell.

Operations & P&L

Revenue, costs, margins, and sell-through by acquisition lot. Know which buys made money and which didn't.

Digital Library

Not just for sellers. Catalog your personal collection, browse by cover, track condition, and tag by genre and subject.
