Vintro Pro · for artists

Stock management for artists

For painters, sculptors and jewellery designers. What you have made, what the materials cost, and where it is now: in the studio, at a gallery or with a buyer.

An artist has no purchase price. There are materials, time, and work spread over three places.

Whether you paint, sculpt or design jewellery: after a few years of working, your body of work is no longer in one place. Some hangs in the studio, some at a gallery, some is sold and some was in an exhibition and has not come back yet. Without a list, "where is that piece from 2023?" is half a day of searching.

Vintro Pro works per work. Title, year, medium, dimensions, material costs and asking price sit beside the photographs, and the record remembers where the work is.

What it does for a studio

  1. One record per work

    Title, year, medium, dimensions and photographs. For an edition you add the number, so that copy three of ten leaves no doubt.

  2. What it cost you

    Materials, framing, transport. You have no purchase price, but you do have costs — and without them an asking price is a shot in the dark.

  3. Knowing where every work is

    In the studio, at a gallery, in an exhibition or sold. For work that is elsewhere you record the agreement and the deadline with it.

  4. Your work online, in three languages

    Tick a work and it appears on the marketplace, with a description in Dutch, French and English.

In the app: under Stock every work stands on its own. What you do not want to show yet stays private — nothing goes online unless you tick it yourself.

Where it goes wrong in a studio

Work at a gallery drops out of sightWhat hangs elsewhere for a year with no agreement on paper becomes a conversation you would rather not have. The agreement belongs with the work.

You no longer know what a work costMaterials and framing are quickly forgotten, and then you set a price on instinct rather than on ground.

The photographs of older work are goneFor an application, a catalogue or an insurer you need images of work you no longer have.

Your own work does not fall under the margin scheme.

The margin scheme exists for goods bought second-hand. Work you make yourself is new, and the ordinary VAT rules apply to it — with, in several countries, a separate rate or scheme for works of art. Check that with your country's tax authority or your accountant; the difference between new and second-hand is set out in unused or second-hand?

Frequently asked questions

Does it work if I have no purchase price?

Yes. You leave that field empty or fill in your material costs. The record, the label and the sale work as usual.

Can I track an edition?

Yes. Every copy gets its own record with its number on it, so you can see which copy is sold and which is still there.
