The Workshop Sheet 16 of 17
List a few pieces from your box and see which set they most likely came from, even when the box mixes sets. It is free and needs no account.
List pieces from all over the box. Once the best set is found, the pieces it explains are set aside and the rest are ranked again, up to 3 sets. A later set needs at least 3 pieces, because one stray piece fits too many sets to mean anything.
We replayed the tool on 150 random sets from the 19,905 with parts on file, choosing pieces from each and adding the mistakes people make. This is a simulation on catalog data, measured October 31, 2026, not a trial with real boxes, which can be harder. With this many sets, a difference of a few points between rows is chance.

It compares your pieces with each set's latest parts list, and counts each listed piece once. It cannot say whether a box is complete from this list alone, and a box of common bricks may fit many sets equally well. Minifigures are not counted. Your list stays in the page's address and is not saved.
