Your program. Your career. Your collection. On ground no one can pull out from under you.
Complete free tools for galleries, artists, collectors, and fairs, built on one permanent shared record. No subscriptions. No commissions. No platform in the middle.
What you build here is yours, forever.
Complete tools for every role
Works alone. Worth more connected.
Galleries run programs. Artists build careers. Collectors steward collections. Fairs carry their ecosystems forward.
Artists
A permanent record for every work and a career that stays whole across every show, gallery, and sale. Work independently or as a team with the galleries who represent you. The record connects everyone who carries your work forward, and builds the archive your legacy will stand on.
Career record · Collector ties · Audience tools · Estate from day one
Galleries
Forge relationships you own, not rent. Make careers and hold the provenance that proves you did it. Showcase, transact, and run your program as a team with your artists, and with the galleries you share them with. Where rosters differ, you compete on program, not on locked in data.
Inventory · Viewing rooms · Collector pipeline · Sales · Portable provenance
Collectors
A private, permanent record of everything you hold. Provenance that protects value at every resale, advisor context that travels with the work, and relationships with galleries and artists on your terms, independent of any platform that comes or goes.
Private collection · Provenance · Discovery · Gallery relationships
Fairs
Carry your ecosystem between editions instead of rebuilding it each year. Every interaction traced to its source, data flowing back to every exhibitor. Proof of the value the fair created.
Exhibitor management · Collector attribution · Edition continuity
Estates
Authorship and provenance inherited intact, not reconstructed from fragments. A record spanning decades that keeps the catalogue, the market, and the legacy coherent.
Authorship · Catalogue support · Provenance · Legacy continuity
Institutions
Build on records that already exist. Exhibition history, loans, and conservation land on the same foundation the work arrived on. Scholarship that compounds instead of starting over.
Exhibition history · Loan records · Conservation · Research access
Every tool a role needs is included. Nothing essential sits behind a paid tier.
The infrastructure is running
Already in use across galleries, estates, collectors, and institutions — quietly, in the background, where infrastructure belongs.
- 400 galleries
- Manage artist relationships, inventory, collector history, and exhibition records as their complete foundation, on infrastructure they own, with data that stays with them.
- 50k artworks
- Carry permanent records that follow them across ownership, exhibition, and institutional care.
- 6k collectors
- Steward collections with records designed for decades, preserving provenance, coordinating loans, and planning succession on infrastructure that outlasts any platform.
- Leading art fairs
- Zona Maco, Material Art Fair, and Salon Acme return year after year as part of Mexican Art Week: three distinct fairs on unified infrastructure, each maintaining its own identity.
Art is built to last. Its records should be too.
A permanent, portable record for every artwork, part of a shared record that spans the art world. One record per artwork. Built over time. Portable across owners, institutions, and borders. Provenance accumulates. Trust carries forward.
The record is also mergeable, and merging is never destructive. Two versions of a work's history can be combined without erasing either one. An artist's studio record and a gallery's sales record describe the same object from different sides, and both sides are part of the truth. Provenance is preserved by design, not by policy.
The record can be created by anyone. An artist in the studio, a gallery cataloguing a consignment, a collector with an inherited work and a folder of old paperwork. There is no gatekeeper deciding whose art deserves a record. Gates cap growth. The market needs ubiquity, and a record system only works if every work can have one. A record can begin here or be brought in from elsewhere. The art record is what makes this infrastructure, not software.

Built for one moment: the sale.
Every existing tool is built for one role and one moment: the sale. Inventory software for the gallery. A tracker for the collector. A marketplace for the buyer. And each is built to keep the connection inside its own walls.
So the moment a sale closes, a gallery shuts, or a subscription lapses, the record fragments and the relationship goes with it. Not by accident. The systems were designed to sit in the middle and own what passes through. An artwork, and the trust built around it, outlives all of them.
The fix isn’t a better version of these tools. It’s inverting what they were built on. They ignored the relationship, served one role, siloed the data, trapped it, and charged for access. Infrastructure built for the relationship does the opposite. The sale is one moment inside it, included, handled, never the point. One record underneath. Every role on top. Every connection yours.
What’s missing isn’t software
Serves one role
Serves every role
Sits between you and your relationships
The connection stays yours, always
Record lives in its account
Record exists on its own
History fragments when you leave
History persists, always
Charges for access
Free at the foundation
They can copy what we built. They can’t copy what we refuse to do.
Six conditions, all at once
Miss one and it isn’t infrastructure, it’s another tool
A permanent shared record
One record per work. Owned by no platform.
Complete tools for every role
Free and whole. Nothing core held back.
Structural governance
Neutrality enforced, not promised.
Data and participant agency
Your data, records, and relationships stay yours.
Connected, on your terms
Operate alone. Connect by choice, never by force.
Built to last
Sustained from above the foundation.
A shared system for the art world.
Built as a public benefit corporation. Designed to connect every role without sitting between them. The infrastructure stays invisible so the participants remain in the foreground.
Galleries, artists, collectors, and institutions operate independently, connected through a shared system of records. Structural protections. The foundation protects itself so you never have to.
Public benefit corporation
Stewardship is a legal duty owed by leadership, one that doesn't leave when they do. Incorporated 2024.
Code in escrow
Independent trustees hold the code. If the foundation is ever gated or the company winds down, it releases. The record outlives us.
Participant-owned data
Your records and relationships are yours in the structure itself, never convertible into our leverage. Discovery is never conditioned on what you contribute. Leave, and they go with you.
No role of our own
Not an artist, gallery, dealer, or marketplace. Having nothing to protect is what lets the foundation serve every role without favoring one, and it's written into the charter rather than left as a position a future owner could take up.
Free foundation. Paid by choice. Nothing in between.
Why is this free?
Because it doesn't work otherwise. Infrastructure everyone can depend on has to be universal, private, and free to connect or not. Put a toll on any of it and adoption goes partial. Partial adoption isn't a smaller foundation, it's not a foundation. It's another tool, and the art world has plenty of those.
So we gave up the ability to charge for it. Not a policy, a structure. That's what the escrow is for.
If it is core to a role's operation, it lives in the free stack.
Nothing in the free stack moves to paid. Paid functionality moves into it as it becomes core.
So what do you do with my data and relationships?
Nothing. They're yours by default, protected, never exposed, never converted into leverage. Export whenever you want, in a form you can use. Leave, and they go with you. That isn't a policy we could revise later, it's held in the structure itself. We don't need you to use ours. The tools work either way, and we would rather earn the choice than engineer it.
Then how do you make money?
Above the foundation, never inside it.
What we earn comes from what sits above the foundation. Payments, when you choose our processing over your own. Efficiency, where we do the work instead of you: show setup, automation, bulk operations. Services, from printing to bespoke applications and websites. Analysis on your own records, enterprise deployments, and third party integrations built on top. Every one of them optional, never required to participate or to run your role. The core lets you do the work. What sits above it does the work for you. Charging for access would cap who can join and break the neutrality infrastructure depends on, which is why none of it is priced that way.
