Try it: pick a material and a mode, then scan. Sample products and data; match scores are a guide and you confirm by eye.
You saw it. Then the hunt begins.
A tile in a showroom, a worktop in a client's home, a page in a magazine. As your sample library grows, it gets harder to search every year.
What exactly is it?
Hours of scrolling catalogues and websites.
The closest products by look, not by keywords, in seconds.
Who supplies it?
Phone calls and emails to find who sells it.
Who sells it, with their contact and the price per square metre.
Does it suit the job?
Size, finish, slip rating and lead time, all in different places.
Size, finish, stock and the spec sheet on one material page.
One app, from the first scan to the client's PDF.
No copying between catalogues, spreadsheets and email. Each step hands the material to the next. Follow one marble from the showroom to the handover.

Keep it. Then put it to work.
Everything you scan or save lands in one library. Your boards draw from the project's own materials, so they always match the specification.
- A library you can searchBy name, look or material. Filter by colour, size, brand and finish. Save favourites with one tap.
- Material boardsEach board has up to 5 sub-boards, one per room. Build on desktop or iPad, view on your phone.
- SamplesRequest one from the material page and see where it stands: sent, supplier in touch, order agreed, closed. A supplier can reply in the app. You can stop replies to any request, or report the conversation, and mark a request done or reopen it.
Everything the project needs, in one place.

Your eye decides.
Beside your judgment
Swatchera saves the hunt. Match scores are a guide, and you confirm every material by eye.
You stay in control
Your details and projects stay private unless you switch on sharing for a project. You can switch it off again. A material you add yourself is shown to other designers only if you choose to share it, after our team checks it.
Open to every supplier
Suppliers list free, with no commission. Nothing about you or your project reaches them automatically.
AI helps, and you decide
AI is on in the beta and gives a second opinion on your scan. Photos go to an outside AI service, with nothing about you. Switch it off any time in settings.
It never reorders or hides your matches. You make the final call.

Questions
Anything else? Write to info@swatchera.com
Do I need to download an app?
No. The beta runs in your browser on phone and computer. Add it to your home screen.
How does the matching work?
AI is on by default in the beta and helps in two places: a second opinion on your scan (designers) and suggestions when you import a catalogue (suppliers). Our own matching always comes first. Photos are sent to an outside AI service for this, and nothing about you is sent with them. You can switch AI off in your account settings at any time, and everything works without it.
Who can see my projects?
Your details and projects stay private unless you switch on sharing for a project. You can switch it off again. A material you add yourself is shown to other designers only if you choose to share it, after our team checks it.
Do suppliers pay to be found?
No. Listing is free, with no commission and no limit on products.
What if I move back to Basic?
Work over the Basic limits is locked, not deleted. We keep it for up to 90 days, and it all comes back if you return to a paid plan in that time.
