COLLECTA — THE RECORD FOR SERIOUS ART COLLECTIONS
Point your iPhone at an artwork. Collecta reads the artist, title, medium and condition, estimates a value range from real auction sales, and drafts a complete record. Nothing enters your collection until you confirm it.
Whether you own 10 pieces or 500, Collecta gives you one place to know what you own, what it's worth, and where it is.
THE SCANNER
Frame the work and take the shot. Collecta drafts the record, then asks you first:
· Add to collection, as drafted
· Edit details before it's saved
· Not now, which keeps the scan in To check for later
Every value stays editable after it's saved: tap a field and change it in place.
YOUR SYSTEM OF RECORD
Stop managing your collection across spreadsheets, email threads and memory. Collecta structures every work with:
· Provenance and ownership history
· Exhibitions and loans
· Condition reports and conservation notes
· Estimate history over time
· Insurance documentation from any record
Search everything. Export it as PDF or CSV whenever you like.
MARKET DATA FROM REAL SALES
· Millions of auction records from the major auction houses
· Artist market profiles with price movement over time
· Auction comparables for each work
· AI-assisted provenance research
Estimates are grounded in real sales and show the sales they're based on.
SEE IT ON YOUR WALL
Take one straight-on photo of a wall and Collecta places your work on it at true scale, so you see how a piece will hang before you move it. Or walk your collection through a virtual gallery.
SHARE AND DOCUMENT
· Share selected works with an advisor, insurer or family through a private link
· Insurance packets, certificates and a printable inventory as PDFs
· Keep dealer contacts, loans and consignments in one place
PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
Your records start private. Sharing is always deliberate and always in your control. Collecta is not a social network; it is the private record of your collection.

I downloaded Collecta just to try it out and ended up adding half my collection that same night. It’s easy to use, looks great, and makes finding everything later so much simpler.

Seamless functionality with niche features.
The scanner is rebuilt. Nothing enters your record until you confirm it: after a scan, choose Add to collection, Edit details, or Not now, which keeps the scan in To check for later. The camera screen has a new design with clearer framing. Restore Purchases now tells you what it found, and a cancelled plan shows the date Pro ends. Sign out is easier to find, and inline edits no longer lose what you typed during a save.
