What is Artwise?
A simple, cloud-based platform for artists, galleries, and collectors to catalog, track, and share artworks. Keep your collection organized, create overviews and labels, and make communication with galleries and clients effortless—all in one place.
Artwise – Organize, Present, and Share Your Art Professionally
Artwise is a cloud-based platform designed to streamline the management and presentation of art for artists, galleries, and collectors. Unlike traditional, often expensive and overly complex solutions, Artwise focuses on the essential needs of those who want to catalog, track, and share their art professionally—without the steep learning curve or high costs.
Addressing the Challenges of Art Management
Many galleries and artists face the challenge of managing art collections without structured tools. Traditional methods—spreadsheets, disconnected databases, or ad hoc paperwork—make tracking artworks, prices, and exhibition histories cumbersome. Galleries often struggle to communicate efficiently with artists because the necessary data is incomplete or inconsistent, while artists themselves may not know which information galleries require: artwork metadata, CVs, pricing, high-quality images, and more. Artwise bridges this gap by providing a centralized platform where all key data can be stored, updated, and shared seamlessly. Whether it’s sending a curated selection of works to a potential buyer or preparing a complete collection overview for an exhibition, Artwise makes the process simple and efficient.

Supporting Artists of All Levels
Artwise is particularly valuable for emerging or independent artists who may not have a fully developed catalogue yet. A free plan allows up to 150 artworks, 15 locations, and 15 exhibitions—enough to start building a professional portfolio without upfront costs. Even on the free plan, users can access nearly all core tools, such as label creation, PDF overviews, and price lists. This ensures that even artists with limited resources can organize and share their work professionally.
Why Artwise Was Created
The idea for Artwise emerged from firsthand experience in a small gallery. Managing artwork inventories and pricing manually became increasingly complicated, especially when data from artists was inconsistent or incomplete. Observing these inefficiencies highlighted the need for a user-friendly, centralized system for both galleries and artists. The platform was developed to fill this gap, offering a professional, yet affordable solution for digital art management. By enabling artists to create a structured, accessible record of their work, Artwise reduces barriers and opens doors for professional opportunities.
A Platform for the European Art Market
While Artwise is primarily geared toward the German-speaking and European markets, it is fully developed in English to accommodate international users. The goal is to simplify art cataloguing and management for artists, galleries, and collectors, allowing them to focus on what matters most: the art itself.
