Connected assistants

Ask about your CardShow—not just the internet.

CardShow is preparing a product-specific connection for supported assistants such as ChatGPT. Its value comes from the CardShow account you already use: your places, plans, activity, alerts, and the Hunt List connection you explicitly choose.

A briefing that is actually yours

Review your saved upcoming shows, followed-shop activity, seller updates, show plans, attendance choices, and CardShow alert settings—not a generic web search.

Hunt List show matching

With your separate permission, CardShow and a supported assistant can compare unchecked HobbyWise Hunt List labels and identification details with seller-declared categories and featured items at upcoming CardShow events.

A working show-day plan

Create or update one private show plan, add targets and reminders, check completed items, and review current seller coverage for the exact show.

Follow-through after the conversation

After you confirm the exact change, save a show, follow a shop, set Interested or Going, and choose which CardShow app alerts you want from a followed shop.

A business brief without exposing collectors

A CardShow Pro shop, seller, or promoter can review grouped follower demand after enough people explicitly opt in. The brief never reveals a follower name or an individual Hunt List.

How connection works

1. Use one 5Line Account

Sign in to CardShow and HobbyWise with the same 5Line Account. CardShow includes an Open HobbyWise action if the second app still needs attention.

2. Confirm CardShow access

CardShow Collector Plus or Pro must be active. Open HobbyWise once with the same 5Line Account; its free Hunt List can supply the targets.

3. Choose the cross-app permission

In the CardShow app, open Settings, then Data & Apps. Hunt List matching stays off until you turn it on.

4. Connect CardShow in a supported assistant

Sign in through the 5Line connection screen. CardShow never receives your assistant password.

5. Confirm changes

The assistant can read permitted context immediately, but it must show you the exact CardShow record and final state before making a change.

Privacy and safety boundaries

You stay in control

Public directory search needs no account. Personal tools require your 5Line sign-in. Every save, follow, attendance, plan, checklist, or alert change requires confirmation of the exact target and final state.

One paid matching benefit

Hunt List matching requires CardShow Collector Plus or Pro, the same 5Line Account in HobbyWise, and your permission in CardShow Data & Apps. A free HobbyWise Hunt List can supply targets. HobbyWise Pro remains separate for advanced HobbyWise features.

Private collecting data stays private

CardShow Hunt List matching does not receive costs, values, profit, purchase history, storage locations, private notes, photos, buyer details, or your HobbyWise workspace identity.

Seller plans are leads, not promises

A match means a participating seller declared a relevant category or featured item. It is not a reservation, inventory guarantee, authentication, price quote, or promise that the item will still be available.

Availability depends on the assistant provider, plan, device, and completion of CardShow's plugin review. The CardShow app continues to work without connecting an outside assistant. Read the privacy policy or contact support@cardshow.net.
