Gesso for Galleries · In research with galleries now
One place to run your art gallery.
Artists, consignments, inventory, holds, sales, and artist payouts, in one system your whole staff shares. We're building it now, with galleries like yours.
What we're building
All your gallery's tools, in one place.
Most galleries juggle spreadsheets, an inventory app, QuickBooks, and email. We want to bring that work into one place, so running your gallery takes less time. Here's what we plan to include. Tell us what's missing.
- 01 Add an artist and their terms Each artist's split, discounts, and who pays card fees, in one place.
- 02 Take in a consignment Check works in, note their condition, and print the receipt the artist signs.
- 03 Catalog every work Photos, sizes, editions, and price history for each work.
- 04 Know where every work is On the wall, in storage, at a fair, or out with a collector.
- 05 Hold a work for a collector Set when the hold ends, so a work is never sold twice.
- 06 Send a price list Make tearsheets and price lists as PDFs in your gallery's style.
- 07 Record a sale Take a deposit, collect the balance, and mark the work sold.
- 08 Pay your artists See what you owe each artist, send statements, and record payouts.
- 09 Find anything Search every work, person, and invoice from one box.
- 10 See what's due Holds ending, payments owed, payouts due, and works going back.
