Our proprietary and patented technology uses four performance metrics that allow consistent comparison of artists as diverse as Warhol and Monet, Hirst and Picasso, Kusama and Rubens.

What are the metrics?

Users will be asked to assign a weight to each of the following four performance metrics.

Each artist has a unique numerical value for each of the four-performance metrics based on historical results in the repeat sale auction market.question icon

Market Risk (MARPUR)

Complete investment evaluation in just a few clicks

To determine an artist investment potential (AIP) the user must specify their own relative weights to apply to each of the four performance metrics based on their investment goals and risk tolerances. Multiplying each of the four metrics by the chosen weights and then adding them together yields a result where the artist with the smallest positive AIP value has the best investment potential and the artist with the highest AIP value would have the weakest investment potential.

Each set of weights yields a unique AIP score for each artist. Artists’ AIP values can be compared by the user as a way of facilitating the selection of an artist for investment. There is no one correct set of weights their values are personalized and therefore not comparable across users.

What is the resulting AIP for Dali and Picasso based on your weights and the crowd source weights?
