Problem
The art market relies on manual, fragmented documentation for condition reports, authenticity verification, and transfer records, leading to inconsistencies, forgery risk, and inefficient workflows.
Solution
nüme provides an end‑to‑end infrastructure that standardizes artwork documentation through robotic multi‑spectral imaging, AI‑driven analysis, and blockchain‑based certification. High‑resolution scans are captured by fixed or mobile robotic stations, generating uniform datasets across visible, UV, and infrared spectra. AI algorithms automatically detect damage, track condition changes, and compare historical records, while blockchain anchors each image and report to a tamper‑proof ledger. The resulting certified digital records replace paper certificates, enabling reliable verification, traceability, and streamlined transactions for museums, storage facilities, insurers, and dealers.
Target Audience
Primary customers are museums, art storage facilities, free‑port operators, insurers, and art dealers that require reliable, scalable condition reporting and provenance verification for high‑value artworks.
Features
- Proprietary robotic imaging system delivering up to 4000 dpi ultra‑HD scans in visible, UV, and infrared bands
- Fixed nodes for major hubs and mobile units for on‑site deployment in museums, free‑ports, and storage facilities
- Rapid capture speed of approximately 15 minutes per square meter, supporting industrial‑scale throughput
- AI‑powered damage detection and automated anomaly identification for condition reporting
- Historical condition comparison across an artwork’s lifecycle to monitor preservation status
- Blockchain‑anchored certification that creates immutable, globally verifiable provenance records
- Standardized multi‑spectral dataset serving as a single source for downstream analytics, insurance, and loan documentation
