How to Browse a Record Label's Catalog with ChatGPT
Use ChatGPT and ToolRouter to browse a record label's catalog with release details and market prices.
Tool
Explore the full output of a record label, review individual releases, and check collector values across the catalog. Use `label_catalog`, `release_details`, and `price_guide` to map the label's output. ChatGPT is a good fit when you want the catalog formatted as a readable guide with value highlights and a clean structure for reference.

Steps
Once connected (see setup above), use the Record Collector tool:
- Specify the label and any filters: format, year range, country, or catalog number series.
- Use `record-collector` to run `label_catalog`, then `release_details` and `price_guide` on the notable releases.
- Have ChatGPT format the results as a label guide with catalog number, artist, title, year, and estimated value for each release.
- Use the formatted guide for crate digging, want list building, or collection planning.
Example Prompt
Try this with ChatGPT using the Record Collector tool
Use record-collector to browse the Stax Records catalog. Run label_catalog, then release_details and price_guide on the 1960s and 1970s originals. Format the output as a collector's guide sorted by catalog number with value estimates.
Tips
- Ask ChatGPT to sort by catalog number so you can see the label's chronological output at a glance.
- Request a separate section for the top 10 most valuable releases so the highlights are easy to find.
