What it is

Enter the work once. Never rebuild it again.

Right now the facts about your work live in five places: a website builder, an inventory app or a spreadsheet, a folder of JPEGs, a lookbook made by hand, and email. Every time a collector asks "is that one still available, and what does it cost?", you check three of them. Studio Operations replaces all five with one record per artwork: one place that holds everything about the work. Nothing is typed twice.

You add it onceImage, title, year, size, materials and price. Studio Operations gives it a number, and the artwork is in.
Studio Operations prepares itFrom one note of yours it drafts the caption, the full description and the public details. You read, edit, approve. The facts are never touched.
Then it runs everything elseYour website, lookbooks, interested collectors, private prices, checkout, rentals, invoices, certificates, shipping and the history of the work. All from that record.

What one record becomes

Change it once. It changes everywhere.

Raise the price of a painting. The artwork page, the lookbook, the invoice and the private quote you sent a collector last week all move with it.

This is one artwork, open in Studio Operations. Everything on this page comes out of it.
