One record for the whole trade.
Verso is building the shared record the art, design and collectibles trade has never had — and the products, market and operations, that run on top of it.
The trade deserves one system, not ten.
For decades the art trade has moved extraordinary objects on spreadsheets, email and paper — every gallery, shipper and insurer keeping their own copy, re-typing the same work at every hand-off. Provenance gets lost in the gaps. Value, condition and custody live in silos. Verso starts from one shared object record and builds the whole trade around it.
AI drafts, you decide
Nothing commits itself — every act waits for a person to sign. The dial is yours: Manual, Assisted, Proactive.
0% of any sale
Verso takes no cut and never competes with you — neutrality is structural, not a promise in a contract.
Yours to share, on your terms
Captured once, trusted everywhere — seen only by those you permit. Disclosure is an explicit, reversible act with a trail.
Append-only, two clocks, identity as a claim.
The record is built the way a registrar would build it: every fact is a dated entry with a person and a basis; corrections are new entries, never edits; both records survive.
Corrections, never edits
A correction is a new record that points at the old one. Both survive. Nothing is overwritten.
When it happened, when we learned
The world's time and ours, always both — a condition found on Tuesday, recorded on Thursday, reads as exactly that.
How we know
Document sighted · party assertion · operator observation · third-party register · machine inference. Every fact says which.
Zero cross-tenant links
Every feature works for a single firm with no link to any other. Your book is yours.
Who's building it.
An early-stage company, founded by two people who have spent their careers on either side of the record — the operation, and the engineering.

Vision, UX, workflow and strategy. Twenty-five years in fine-art logistics.
