Your music codex.
The NFC-powered vinyl cataloging and peer exchange platform built for collectors, by collectors. Dig deeper. Share more. Own your collection.
Sonnex Features
Every feature is designed around the rituals of digging, collecting, and trading vinyl.
Tap any Sonex-tagged record and get instant ownership, grading, and purchase info — no app download required. Buyers tap, see the record, and buy with Apple Pay in seconds. The full peer exchange starts with a single tap.
Sonnex reimagines cataloging with a visual-first approach — browse your collection like you browse a record store. Organized into crates, each record shows pressing details, condition, estimated value, and linked digital artifacts.
Pull a Tap Tag sticker, scan it to your record, and walk through our Goldmine-standard grading flow. Sonex auto-pulls Discogs market data to suggest competitive pricing. Listing your record takes under a minute.
See listening parties, swap meets, store signings, and new drops near you — all on one map. Discover other collectors in your city, browse their crates, and arrange in-person exchanges. The scene is right outside your door.
Build your collector identity. Your profile shows your crates, sale listings, exchange history, and collection value. Follow other diggers, message sellers, and find your next grail from collectors around the world.
Tap Tags by Sonex
Tagging your collection shouldn't feel like work.
2-in-1 NFC sticker roll holder — one end attaches to your record, the other stays in your pocket. Tagging is as fast as peeling and tapping.
Write-locked after cataloging — once your record is linked, the tag is yours and only yours. No rewrites, no spoofing.
Works with any NFC-enabled iPhone. No app needed to read — just tap and discover.
Pick one up at your local record store soon. We're partnering with stores across NYC and beyond.
