Why artists switch

A record that also sells.

  1. Unlimited from day one

    No moving up a plan when your inventory passes 100 or 500 pieces.

  2. Checkout, not paperwork

    Collectors buy on your portfolio instead of requesting a purchase and waiting for an invoice.

  3. Marketing in the same app

    Turn any piece into posts for five platforms in one click.

  4. Certificates collectors can check

    A QR code opens a page that verifies the work and its ownership history.
