For personal property and fine art appraisers, locating high‑quality comparable sales (“comps”) is one of the most time‑consuming and research‑heavy parts of preparing an appraisal. Auction data is often fragmented, inconsistent, and manually intensive to compile—especially when cross‑checking multiple houses, time periods, and mediums.
ARTDAI © has emerged as a powerful, next‑generation comps and analytics platform tailored specifically for art and collectibles professionals. Built on normalized auction data, robust search tools, and advanced analytics, it allows appraisers to work faster, more accurately, and with full transparency.
Below is a look at ARTDAI’s capabilities and why it is exceptionally applicable for appraisers.
