The relationship

The artwork leaves. The relationship should not.

Once a work leaves the studio, certificates, ownership details and collector relationships often become fragmented. VeraTag keeps the record connected from the artist forward.

A record with depth

More than a thumbnail.

VeraTag creates a recognisable, detailed record around the artwork—bringing its identity, imagery, context and connected public passport into one place.

Built around the source

A professional record for every stage of the work.

VeraTag gives artists a precise private workspace and a controlled public layer for the facts that should travel with an artwork.

Create the original record for each work—its identity, imagery, materials, dimensions, edition and story.

Artwork registrationPrivate record

Registration issues a permanent VeraTag ID, with a public passport carrying the selected facts alongside the physical artwork.

One public passport destination connects the record to the prepared physical tag.

Invite a buyer to accept ownership and preserve the handover as a timestamped part of the artwork’s journey.

The permission model keeps the artist as the source of authority while authorised representatives and galleries provide support.

Questions

A little more clarity.

Who controls the original artwork record?

The artwork record originates with the artist. A gallery or representative can support the record only where the artist has explicitly authorised access.

What becomes public?

The public passport shows core artwork identity and details selected for the record. Private collector information, addresses, collection values, documents and studio notes are not exposed.

Does registration mean the physical artwork is secured?

No. Registration creates the digital artwork record and VeraTag ID. A prepared QR/NFC tag can be linked separately; full secure NFC verification remains in development.

Can I join now?

VeraTag is a controlled private beta. Artists can request access and accounts are invited or approved for the initial pilot.
