Cataloguing & Lot Intelligence
LiveArt doesn't just catalogue — it values, compares, and contextualizes every lot. Upload an image and get back a structured entry with LAE estimate, ranked comparables, artist analytics, and risk assessment. One step, complete lot intelligence.
Upload an image and basic artwork information — the AI produces the complete catalogue entry in seconds.
Capabilities
Image-Based Identification
Upload a photograph. The system identifies the artist, matches the work against the database, and pulls in all known provenance and sale history. Works with paintings, prints, sculpture, photography, and mixed media.
Structured Lot Description
Auto-generated catalogue entry with artist name, title, medium, dimensions, creation year, edition information, and provenance indicators. Formatted to your house's cataloguing standards. Specialists review and refine — not write from scratch.
Instant LAE Valuation
Every identified work receives a LiveArt Estimate™ valuation with confidence range. Pre-sale estimate ranges backed by 10M+ records and a published methodology. The capability no image-only cataloguing tool offers.
Ranked Comparable Sales
The 8–10 most relevant recent sales, ranked by similarity. Each includes date, house, hammer price, and relevance score. Specialists see the market context immediately — no manual database searches required.
Artist Market Context
Market cap, 12-month momentum, trade volume, auction house concentration, career stage. The full artist profile accompanies every catalogue entry, giving specialists the market intelligence alongside the lot data.
Risk & Liquidity Assessment
Thin market flag, volatility assessment, single-house concentration, momentum direction. For consignment decisions and reserve-setting, the system surfaces risk factors that might not be obvious from the lot alone.
The Difference
Generating a lot description from an image is a solved problem. The real value starts after identification — when you need to know what the work is worth, what comparable works have sold for, how the artist's market is trending, and whether the consignment makes commercial sense. LiveArt combines image-based identification with the intelligence layer that turns a catalogue entry into a complete lot assessment.
10M+
Records Behind Every Estimate
Every LAE valuation is backed by the full auction history — not a sample, not an aggregate. The depth of the training data is the model's competitive advantage.
