Upload an image and basic artwork information — the AI produces the complete catalogue entry in seconds.

Across the Workflow

How LiveArt Fits Into Your Operations

Consignment & Intake

When a consignor brings a work, get an instant LAE valuation, 8–10 ranked comparables, and artist market context — before the specialist even opens a database. Faster intake, more informed consignment decisions.

AI-Assisted Cataloguing

Upload an image. LiveArt identifies the work, generates a structured lot description, pulls in the artist bio, materials, dimensions, and provenance indicators — then adds the LAE estimate and top comparables. One step, complete catalogue entry.

Pre-Sale Estimates

AI-generated estimate ranges backed by 10M+ records, with confidence intervals and methodology transparency. Specialists review and adjust — the AI gives them a running start, not a final answer.

Live Sale Intelligence

Real-time price overlay during auctions. As each lot sells, instant context — above or below estimate, comparable results, artist momentum — visible to specialists and online viewers.

Post-Sale Analytics

Sell-through rates, price distribution, buy-in analysis, artist-by-artist performance — structured analytics that help specialists prepare for the next season.

Specialist Market Research

AI Advisor interface where specialists can query the market naturally: "show me comparable sales for Richter squeegee paintings over 100cm in the last 3 years." Data-backed answers in seconds.

The LiveArt Advantage

Describe It, Price It, Compare It, Assess It — in One Step

LiveArt's cataloguing doesn't stop at generating a lot description. Every identified work comes with an AI valuation backed by 10M+ records, ranked comparable sales, artist market analytics, and a risk assessment — the complete intelligence package that turns a catalogue entry into an informed consignment decision.

Every valuation backed by the largest structured auction dataset in the market. From 1986 to today, across 1,400+ auction houses.

Per-Artwork AI Valuation

LiveArt Estimate™ on every identified work — min, mid, max with confidence intervals. Not an artist average. An estimate for this specific lot.
