Everything a sale needs, in one place

Cataloging

A capture app for phones: burst photos, lot numbers per phone so helpers never collide, voice notes and short videos.
AI drafts from the photos and notes: title, description, category, size class, and makers' marks, signatures and model numbers as seen.
Drafts fill only empty fields and stay suggestions until staff approve them; a review grid for the whole sale.
Estimates, info lots, per-lot handling and loading-help flags, and restrictions for regulated categories.

Maximum bids, increments you set, soft close and staggered closing times.
Bidders register with a card saved through Stripe; cards are charged after the sale on your own Stripe account.
Bidder approval, spending caps for new bidders, reputation badges from real payment and pickup history, and blocks.

Pickup days with time slots that buyers book from their invoice; longer slots for lots that need loading help.
Check-in by QR code, proxies, walk-ups, and a pickup receipt emailed at handoff.

In-house: live rates, packing presets, Charge & Print labels and tracking sent to the buyer.
A partner shipper packs from their own queue, or an outside service collects on a date you set with a printable manifest.
Or pickup only: the Ship option is hidden and your terms say so.

Proposals: shoot a consignor's items on a walkthrough and send a branded proposal with estimates from comparable sales.
Flat or tiered commission, per-lot fees and charges, and a share of buyer's premium per consignor.
Settlement statements as PDFs, payouts recorded, and a consignor portal from proposal to settlement.

Your lots on Catalot's marketplace by category and area, with search by distance and saved-search alerts to bidders.
A sold archive with hammer prices, and structured data for search engines.
An announcement kit when you publish (email, text, social posts, a flyer), and email and text campaigns to your list.

Roles with per-person permissions, staff limited to certain sales, and two-step sign-in.
A message center for buyer questions and order conversations by email, text and the website.
Analytics per sale: bidders per lot, sell-through, payment and pickup, and where registrants came from.
