Comic book price data alternatives
For comic dealers and collectors comparing data sources: who each is for, price, API and MCP access and history, each with its source and the date we read it. Boogie Data (us) is listed too. Our API and MCP server open soon and our history is short (since late September 2026), but of the paid options here with a confirmed price, ours starts lowest: $5 a month for one comic segment in one dataset. To hear when they open, join the waitlist.
The options
| Option | Who it is for | Price | API | MCP | History | Sources, checked on |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Boogie Data (planned) | Dealers, collectors and AI agents who want graded comic sales as rows, one segment at a time. | $5 a month ($50 a year) for one comic segment in one dataset: everything we have collected for that comic segment, kept current, over the API and MCP. $9 a month ($90 a year) for every comic segment in one dataset. Each dataset is priced separately, so add up the comic segments and datasets you need. A one-time download of one comic segment's last 7 days in one dataset is $2. Planned launch prices; nothing is for sale yet. Pricing | REST API with dataset, slice and row calls; opens at launch. REST docs | Yes: an MCP server with the same calls as the API; opens at launch. MCP docs | Short: ComicConnect sold lots (title, issue, grade, grader, certificate number) collected since late September 2026. CGC population counts are a separate dataset. | Pricing and methodology, 31 October 2026 |
| GoCollect | Comic collectors who want a fair market value per grade, trends and sales volume. | Pro $9 a month, or $89 a year ($7.42 a month); Enterprise by quote. | Customised API access on Enterprise, by quote. | No MCP server mentioned on its pricing page. | Sales history on Pro with access limited by grade; full access on Enterprise; depth not stated. | gocollect.com, checked 2 November 2026 |
Lowest starting price of the paid options here with a confirmed price: $5 a month or $50 a year for one comic segment in one dataset (planned), against the GoCollect Pro plan at $9 a month or $89 a year. Theirs are whole-plan prices; ours is per comic segment and per dataset, and each dataset is priced separately, so add up the comic segments and datasets you need before comparing.
Not in this table: CovrPrice. Its public pages refused our reader or came back empty on 2 November 2026, so we could not confirm current prices or features, and we leave it out rather than show older facts.
