About ArteraQ
We started ArteraQ after speaking with gallery owners, art advisors, collection managers, and collectors who all shared a surprisingly similar problem.
Artwork information was scattered everywhere.
Spreadsheets tracked inventory. Documents lived in Dropbox. Provenance records sat in folders. Exhibition history lived in email threads. Insurance information was stored somewhere else entirely.
Finding information wasn't difficult because it didn't exist. It was difficult because it lived in too many places.
ArteraQ was built to bring those records together. Inventory, documents, provenance, locations, exhibitions, valuations, and reporting — organized in one place and connected to the artwork they belong to.
Many art management systems try to do everything. CRM. Sales pipelines. Ecommerce. Website builders. Marketing tools.
For some organizations, that makes sense.
For many galleries, advisors, and collection managers, it doesn't.
We believe managing artwork records should be straightforward. Add a work in seconds. Find records instantly. Generate reports without spending hours in spreadsheets.
That's the idea.
We use automation where it saves time. Descriptions can be generated. Metadata can be suggested. Missing information can be flagged.
But the artwork remains yours.
The records remain yours.
The decisions remain yours.
Technology should help people work more efficiently, not force them into someone else's workflow.
We focus on inventory, records, documents, and reporting before anything else.
Private by default, encrypted in transit, and never sold.
Every feature should solve a real problem we heard from galleries, advisors, collection managers, or collectors.
When you contact us, you talk to people who understand the product and the problems it's built to solve.
To make artwork inventory and records management simple, accessible, and organized for the people responsible for preserving and managing artwork information every day.
