Private collection management

Know what you own —
and what it’s worth.

Photograph a work. Collecta reads the signature, the edition and the medium, then places it against a continuously growing index of published auction results. You confirm every detail before it enters your record.

See Collecta in 85 seconds.

Photograph a work, watch Collecta read it into a record, walk a room hung with the whole collection, hang a work on your own wall to scale and share it privately. Filmed in the app. No sound.

How it works

Photograph. Identify. Estimate.

Try it here — press the shutter and watch the four passes resolve. Nothing enters a record until you confirm it.

01Photograph the workStraight on, even light. The guide frame handles the rest — no lightbox, no rig.
02Read the reasoningNot a spinner and a number. You see what was recognized, why the style matched, which three lots it was compared against, and why the range is as wide as it is.
03Confirm the recordCorrect anything wrong. Only then does the work join your collection — with its estimate, comparables and provenance attached.

Scripted example using a published auction estimate. The record shows its midpoint, not a live valuation or professional appraisal.

Market Pulse

9,659,000 auction results. The ones that touch your walls.

A live feed of hammer prices across 4,398 houses, growing by the hour and filtered to the artists you actually hold. Records broken today, twelve-month movement for your names, and one clear insight at a time — never a wall of dials.

The reading is done against your collection, not the market in general. A record price means something different depending on the medium, the edition size and the year of the work on your wall — so that is what the analysis reasons about, and what the insight names.

The record

Everything about a work, on one page.

An estimate with a confidence range. The auction lots it was measured against. Provenance, invoices and condition reports in a timeline. Not nine tabs — one dossier you can read top to bottom.

Valuation
A range with a confidence meter, and the reason it is wide.
Comparables
Named lots, named houses, dated. Verifiable.
Provenance
Acquisition, exhibitions, documents — in order.
Documents
An insurance schedule your broker can file as-is.

Built for trust

Private by default.

Your collection is among the more sensitive things you own — what it is, what you paid, and what it is worth. So rather than assure you, here is how it is actually handled.

01Visible only to youA new work is private the moment it is created. There is no public-by-default state, no collector directory and no discovery feed to opt out of.
02Never sold, never advertised againstWe do not sell personal information, do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, and do not permit advertising networks to track you across our properties.
03Insights come from the public auction recordMarket analysis reads published auction results — never another collector’s holdings. Nothing you own contributes to anyone else’s numbers.
04Encrypted in transit and at restOn named infrastructure, with the handling set out in full in the privacy policy. We tell you before it changes.

When you share, you choose what a guest sees — works only, or works with provenance, and your estimates only if you say so. Links expire, and you can revoke one at any time. Full detail is in the privacy policy.

A private view on iPhone: values hidden from guests, and a link that expires in 30 days.

Beyond the spreadsheet

Hang it before you hang it.

The Gallery tab on iPhone: the collection hung on one wall, ready to rehang or step inside.

A private show, hung properly

Arrange a wall, walk through it, and send one link to whoever should see it. Rooms save, so a hang you like survives.

Hang it on your wall on iPhone: a work placed on a photographed wall, 22 inches wide and 58.3 inches to center.

Measured, not eyeballed

Photograph the wall once and any work hangs on it to scale, with its width and the height to center, before a single hole is drilled.

For galleries

The same tools, at gallery scale.

Inventory, valuation and documentation across a whole program rather than one wall — with portals for your artists and virtual exhibitions on top. We’re building it with a small number of partner galleries, by invitation.

  1. Every work in the program on one record, shared across your team
  2. A portal per artist — their works, their market, their sales
  3. Virtual exhibitions and shared viewing rooms, straight from inventory

Pricing

Catalog everything free. Pay to keep it current.

Your whole collection belongs in one record, so we don’t cap how many works you can add. Pro is for the part that keeps working after the record exists — the comparables, the revaluation, the market, the documents.
