Two of the best-known art collection tools, compared honestly — pricing, features, apps, and who each is really for. Then the one thing neither of them does: AI, a free tier, and provenance recorded at the moment of creation.
Artwork Archive is the better value for individual collectors and artists — cheaper plans (from ~$10/mo), a Discovery marketplace and Call-for-Entry board, and 15 years in market — but it's web-only with no app. Art Galleria is the stronger fit for selling galleries: built-in e-commerce, a website builder, accounting sync, and native apps including Apple TV — at a higher price. Neither has AI, a genuine free tier, or provenance-at-creation — which is where Attesté, a newer AI-native option, differs.

Figures reflect each product's current published plans; third-party directories often list stale pricing. Attesté claims are limited to shipped, live capabilities.
There's no single winner — it depends on whether you're collecting, selling, or want AI doing the work.
