What is the Asset Matrix?

The Asset Matrix is the Capsuleers.App tool that shows everything one of your EVE Online characters owns, grouped by station, structure and system, with a search across all hangars and the ISK value of each location. In the EVE client the asset window answers one question at a time: which station, which container, which ship. The Asset Matrix reads the whole inventory of a character from ESI and lays it out as one tree: location, then ships, containers and their contents, down to the charges loaded in a launcher.

Each item is valued with the EVErefs reference price (the weekly market average), so every location shows how much ISK sits there. Items stuck in destroyed or abandoned citadels are kept apart, because you cannot move them until asset safety delivers them.

The tool reads and never writes: moving, selling or repackaging still happens in the game client.

01

How do I switch between my characters?

To switch character in the Asset Matrix, use the pilot selector at the top of the page on Capsuleers.App: it lists only the characters of your account that have the Assets service on, and picking one loads its inventory in place. The tool shows one character at a time, so each alt has its own list. Next to the selector, Refresh reads ESI again and Character opens the character overview. A character missing from the list does not have the Assets service yet: enable it from the profile, on that character's card. Signing in with EVE Online is required, because the inventory is read from ESI with the permission you grant to that character.

How to use it

  1. Click the button with the pilot's name next to «Select pilot».
  2. Choose another character from the list: its assets load in place.
  3. After moving things in game, press Refresh to read the inventory again.

How much are my assets worth, and which can I reach?

The Asset Matrix shows the value of a character's assets in three tiles at the top: Total Assets, With Access and Without Access. Each tile shows how many items it counts and their value in ISK. «Total Assets» counts every item, containers and fitted modules included. «With Access» covers NPC stations, citadels where you can dock and ships in space. «Without Access» covers items in structures you can no longer dock in, waiting for asset safety. Prices are EVErefs reference prices, updated daily, not live Jita orders, so the totals are an estimate of wealth rather than what a sale would fetch. Hover a tile to see where the prices come from.

How to use it

  1. «Total Assets» counts every item, containers and fitted modules included.
  2. «With Access» covers NPC stations, citadels where you can dock and ships in space.
  3. «Without Access» covers items in structures you can no longer dock in, waiting for asset safety.

How are my assets grouped by station and system?

The Asset Matrix groups a character's assets by location, which can be an NPC station, a player structure or a ship in space, ordered by system name. Each row shows the system with its security status, the region, the number of items and their value in ISK. Opening a row shows its contents as a tree: ships contain their modules, launchers contain their charges, containers contain their cargo. Each item shows its group and where it sits (high slot, drone bay, cargo), plus the name you gave it in game. A coloured dot tells the kind of location: cyan for NPC stations, orange for player structures, green for ships in space. «Expand all» opens every location at once.

How to use it

  1. Click a location to unfold it; click again to fold it.
  2. Click the arrow next to a ship or a container to see what is inside.
  3. Each item shows its group and where it sits (high slot, drone bay, cargo), plus the name you gave it in game.
  4. «Expand all» opens every location at once; «Collapse all» closes them.

How do I find where an item or ship is?

To find where an item or ship is, type its name in the Asset Matrix search bar: it looks through every hangar of the character at once, matching item name, group, category and the custom name of ships and containers. Matching items stay visible inside their location and inside the parent ship or container, highlighted, and a counter says how many items match. Locations with a match open on their own. Searching a group works too: «Combat Drone» finds every drone type, «Mineral» every ore product. Press Clear to empty the search and go back to the full list. The search covers the character selected at that moment, not all your alts together.

How to use it

  1. Type in «Search by item name, group, category or ship name».
  2. Locations with a match open on their own, and so do the ships and containers that hold it.
  3. Press Clear to empty the search and go back to the full list.

Can I preview the fit of a ship in my hangar?

Yes: in the Asset Matrix, every assembled ship with modules gets a View Fit button that opens its fit in a side panel on Capsuleers.App. The panel uses the same view as the fitting tool: slots, charges, drones and the main statistics, computed with all skills at V. To use it, open the location holding the ship and press View Fit on the ship row, then close the panel to go back to the list. Only fitted ships show the button: a bare hull in a hangar has nothing to preview. Because the statistics assume all skills at V, they show what the fit can do at its best, not your character's current skills.

How to use it

  1. Open the location holding the ship.
  2. Press View Fit on the ship row.
  3. Read the fit and the numbers, then close the panel to go back to the list.

Where are my assets in asset safety?

Assets in asset safety appear in the Asset Matrix in a separate amber section called «Assets · No Docking Access», below the reachable assets, with their own item count and ISK value. When a citadel is destroyed or you lose docking rights, your items go into asset safety, and they do not show up in any station until you deliver them. The structure rows read «Player structure #ID», with no name and no system, because the structure no longer exists where it was. Open a row to see what is waiting there. The Asset Matrix only lists these items: recovering them happens in game, from the asset safety window of the EVE client.

How to use it

  1. Scroll to the section framed in amber below the reachable assets.
  2. Open a «Player structure #ID» row to see what is waiting there.
  3. Recover the items in game, from the asset safety window of the client.

Tip Use this section as a reminder: what is in asset safety does not appear in any station until you deliver it.

Why do some citadels have no name?

Some citadels show no name in the Asset Matrix because reading the name of a player structure needs a separate ESI permission and docking rights. When a structure cannot be resolved, the list still shows the system, derived from where your items are, and an amber warning tells how many structures are in that state. To fix it, click the warning: it opens your profile on the character's Assets service. Authorise the service again so the token carries the structure permission, then come back and press Refresh. The warning appears only when some citadel names cannot be read.

How to use it

  1. If the warning appears, click it: it opens your profile on the character's Assets service.
  2. Authorise the service again so the token carries the structure permission.
  3. Come back and press Refresh.

Frequently asked questions

How can I see all my assets in EVE Online outside the game?

To see all your EVE Online assets outside the game, sign in with your EVE character on Capsuleers.App, enable the Assets service in the profile and open the Asset Matrix. It reads the inventory from ESI, the official CCP API, and shows it grouped by station, structure and system.

How do I find where a ship or a module is?

Type its name in the Asset Matrix search bar. Every hangar of the character is searched at once, and the matching item appears inside its station and inside the ship or container that holds it.

How fresh is the asset list?

The asset list is as fresh as ESI allows: ESI caches a character's assets for about an hour, so an item moved a few minutes ago may still appear in the old place. The Refresh button reads the list again, but it cannot go faster than ESI.

Are the ISK values real sale prices?

No, the ISK values in the Asset Matrix are not real sale prices. They are EVErefs reference prices, the weekly average of market transactions, updated once a day. They are good for an estimate; what you get selling in Jita depends on the orders at that moment.

Can I see the assets of all my characters together?

Not in the Asset Matrix, which shows one character at a time; you switch with the pilot selector. To bring the assets of several characters into one system, use the Asset Consolidator.

Why does a citadel appear as «Player structure» with a number?

Because the name of a player structure can only be read with the structure permission and docking rights. Without them the tool shows the structure id and, when possible, the system. Items in asset safety have no system at all.

Can the tool move or sell my items?

No, the Asset Matrix cannot move or sell your items. It only reads data with the permission you gave. Moving, selling and repackaging happen in the EVE client.
