Market
Market helps you get from scattered information to a position worth examining and explaining — with the continuity, comparison, context and evidence that make it defensible kept intact, never flattened into false certainty.
A case rarely closes in one sitting. It opens as a question, gathers records and comparisons over weeks, and has to survive being explained to someone else.
Market is built for that shape of work: for dealers, galleries, advisers and collectors working with a documented logic, and for the experts, auction specialists and analysts who work alongside them.
I
A question opens
Revisiting a research project.
A Research Context holds a line of enquiry — the artists you attach to it, and what you find — so a question you opened last month is exactly as you left it when you come back to it. Return to a saved context and continue exactly where you left off.
- 01Research — open a line of enquiry
- 02Attach artists to it
- 03Return later
- 04Continue, with nothing lost
II
The evidence accumulates
Watching new
catalogue activity.
Every Research Context keeps its own Journal: recorded catalogue activity for the artists you've attached, kept in one reviewable place so you can pick research back up without re-reading everything.
Recorded activity, reviewed and reusable — not a raw feed to sift through, and not a promise of universal alerts across the whole market.
III
You come back
Preparing a sale.
Today is a calm, bounded return surface: your current work, what changed recently in the contexts you're researching, and a way to resume.
It is not a monitoring engine, a notification centre, a news feed, or an AI briefing — just a composition of your own Market data.
IV
What makes it readable
Infrastructure that
stays in the background.
The Index is Market's infrastructure, not a separate product: works, artists, sales, catalogues and the relationships between them, structured so a comparison or a signal can be traced back to what it's built on.
Sleepers
ComingSleepers is a bounded research-support signal, scoped to Old Masters and historically attribution-uncertain material — coming autumn 2026. It flags a candidate worth examining; it is never automatic attribution, and never certainty.

V
What you take away
The work has to leave the screen.
A position that cannot be handed to a client, a committee or a colleague is not finished. Market's output is meant to be read on paper as it is on screen, and to carry its own sources with it — where each figure came from, and when it was retrieved.
This is the part of Market still being built. It is described here because it is what the work is for, not because it is ready.
A film on a line of enquiry — opened, added to, and returned to a month later.
A film on the deliverable as it prints — its sections, its sources and its retrieval dates.
Technology and responsibility
Structured evidence, not a bigger AI showcase.
Market's technology keeps structured evidence, relationships, source awareness, history and dates attached to every result, so continuity survives comparison and summarization. Technology increases your capacity to examine — it does not confer expert status, and it stays deliberately out of the way.
Market does not
- — authenticate a work
- — establish a certain value
- — replace expertise
- — guarantee attribution
