DATA PARTNERSHIPS

List your auctions where the market is looking.

LiveArt puts your sales in front of collectors, advisors, and institutions worldwide — and folds your results into the indices and valuations that price the art market. There's no cost to join, and we do the heavy lifting to get you live.

SEE THE METHODOLOGY →
FULL-LIFECYCLE COVERAGE

From preview to permanent record.

Upcoming auctions

Your sales appear ahead of the hammer — catalogued and searchable, in front of collectors already tracking the artists you're selling.

Live bidding

For qualifying sales, we can surface lots as bidding happens — so LiveArt's audience can follow your auction in real time.

Post-sale results

Hammer prices join the permanent record, powering price history, artist analytics, and the LiveArt indices.

WHAT PARTNERSHIP LOOKS LIKE

Free to join. We do the catching up.

NO COST, NO PLACEMENT FEES

Becoming a data partner is free, and keeping your sales listed stays free. Partnership is about coverage and accuracy — not paid advertising.

WE BACKFILL YOUR HISTORY

New to LiveArt? Send us your back catalogue and we'll load your past results — so your track record is complete from day one, not just from your next sale forward.

HOW IT WORKS

Send data the way you already keep it.

FORMATS, IN ORDER OF PREFERENCE
  • API — preferred

    A direct feed keeps your upcoming sales and results in sync automatically, with the least work on both sides.

  • Structured files

    Excel, CSV, or JSON exports from your auction-management system. Whatever columns you keep, we'll map.

  • PDF catalogues

    If a sale catalogue or results PDF is all you have, we'll parse it. It's the last resort, never a blocker.

GETTING STARTED
  1. 01

    Reach out

    Tell us about your house and how you keep your data. One short conversation to get going.

    Get your submission address

    We set up a dedicated email address that you keep on file and send every sale to.

  3. 03

    We map and backfill

    We match a sample, load your historical results, and confirm the mapping with you before anything goes live.

  4. 04

    Go live

    Your upcoming sales and results appear on LiveArt — and stay current with each new sale.

YOUR SUBMISSION ADDRESSdata-partners@liveart.ai

Send sales here to get started. Once you're set up, we'll give your house a dedicated alias to keep on file.

WHAT WE NEED

The details that make a sale usable.

  • Artist or maker

  • Title or lot description

  • Medium

  • Dimensions

  • Low and high estimate

  • Hammer or sold price

  • Sale name, date, and lot number

  • Lot images

Don't have every field? Send what you have. More detail means richer coverage, but we'll work with whatever your records include.

HOW YOUR DATA IS USED

Credited, protected, and put to work.

How we handle image rights →
  • You're credited as the source

    Every sale we ingest is attributed to your house across the pages where it appears.

  • It powers the whole platform

    Your results feed price histories, artist analytics, valuations, and the LiveArt index family.

  • Image rights are respected

    We handle catalogue images under our published image-rights policy, and honour takedown and correction requests.

QUESTIONS

Before you write in.

Is there a cost to join?
No. Becoming a data partner is free, and there are no placement or listing fees. Partnership is about coverage, not advertising spend.
What format should we send?
An API feed is ideal, but structured exports (Excel, CSV, JSON) are perfectly fine — and we'll parse PDF catalogues if that's what you have.
Do you work with smaller or regional houses?
Yes. Houses of every size and geography are welcome. Regional and specialist sales are exactly the coverage collectors ask us for.
How long until we're live?
Most partners are live within a few weeks — faster with an API or clean exports, a little longer if we're backfilling a large historical catalogue.
Is partnership exclusive?
No. Listing with LiveArt doesn't stop you from working with anyone else, and you keep ownership of your data.
