We've just returned from the dynamic streets of Lisbon, where the Web Summit 2023 lit up the city. As one of the world’s top tech conferences, Web Summit brought together 70,000 attendees, ranging from tech enthusiasts to investors and influential industry leaders.

Artisio, invited as an innovative startup, proudly showcased our auction technology solution at a dedicated booth. This provided a great opportunity to connect with potential investors, partners, and fellow startups, sharing our vision on sustainability and the auction industry's role in fostering the circular economy.

A standout theme that resonated throughout many talks was sustainability, with a particular focus on the role of the second-hand market in the global environment. This resonated with us at Artisio as we're at the forefront of fostering a circular economy and advocating for sustainable decisions as a core solution.

Artisio Secures £250K Funding to Fuel the Growth of its Auction Technology

Artisio Milestones

As part of this £250 000 fundraising, we’ve gained best-in-class investors and advisors who strengthen Artisio’s brain trust and accelerate our ability to empower auction businesses.

We started Artisio with the mission to lead the auction industry on to the next level of technology. Today, our team is overjoyed to share a key milestone: Artisio has raised £250 000 in funding from Jenson Funding Partners – an early-stage focused venture capital firm.

The acquisition of this new capital further accelerates our ability to empower auction businesses across all verticals.

Artisio delivers exactly what a modern auction management solution needs to be

Today, Artisio serves auction businesses with the following integrated products:

  • Artisio AMS – Comprehensive front-to-back software solution for auction management
  • Artisio Timed Auction Solution – A customisable online bidding platform white-labelled as part of the client website branding
  • Live Auctions – Live auction software that enables auction businesses to bring auctions online via live auction software backed by StreamBid.
  • Web-App – A platform for clients to control their settings, access their bidding history, view and pay invoices/settlements, and full ‘My Profile’ features.

Artisio AMS was launched in early 2021. Over 200 employees in auction businesses use Artisio daily to streamline routine tasks and automate the entire auction management process (handling inventory management, sale & auction creation, customer management, reporting & analytics, invoicing & payments, and more).

In mid-2022, we introduced Artisio Timed Auctions, which rapidly gained a reputation as a versatile and easily customizable online auction platform. Artisio auction management software and Artisio Online Auctions Platform are seamlessly integrated, functioning as a centralised hub where all auction information is automatically gathered and synchronised.

Most importantly, Artisio effortlessly integrates with any third-party partners already in use by the auction business. allowing customers to fully benefit from our product without the hassle of switching platforms or payment partners

Artisio has achieved an incredible amount in 2 years, with customers reported substantial reductions in time spent, as well as improvements in client satisfaction. In December 2022 Artisio was named ‘Most Innovative Startup of the Year 2022’ in Business Award competition organised by Visa & TBC Bank.

And this is just the starting point for our product vision. Over time, we intend to develop a self-onboarding platform to accelerate the process for new clients. This full suite is what we like to call Auction Automation.

What our customers can expect going forward

As part of this £250 000 fundraising, we’ve gained best-in-class investors and advisors who strengthen Artisio’s brain trust.

We are fortunate to have the support of Jenson Funding Partners, who bring technological and operational expertise that will benefit our customers.

This funding greatly enhances our ability to offer cutting-edge technology solutions to the industry. It enables us to invest in our team that consistently exceeds customer expectations, as well as expand into the US market and launch a self-onboarding platform to streamline the process for new clients.

We’ve never been more excited to leverage technology to empower auction businesses, and we could not be more grateful to our customers and investors for empowering us on this journey.

Rares selects Artisio as its tech partner for their new Online Auction Platform!

Artisio Milestones

Artisio is delighted to announce that it will be powering Rares’ new Online Auction Platform!

Rares is a social investing platform and the first alternative marketplace exclusively for highly valued and graded assets such as comic books, trading cards, video games, and of course high-end and desirable sneakers! Rares is launching its Auction Platform to offer enthusiasts and collectors alike the ability to buy and invest in rare, collectable, and investment-graded assets.

Teaming up with Artisio will allow Rares to streamline its auction processes and run a smooth, error-free marketplace through Artisio’s intelligent bidding software.

As for Artisio, this signals an expansion into new territory, as the Rares brand itself is a first-of-its-kind fully vertically integrated one-stop shop for investing in collectable culture.

This partnership demonstrates that Artisio’s versatile tech architecture and core functionalities can accommodate all online auction business requirements, from industrial, retail and fine arts to innovative and transformational platforms such as Rares.io, dedicated to revolutionising sneaker culture.

Rares Product Director,  John Azzaro, said:
“Our experience with the Artisio team has been amazing. From the beginning, the Rares team was immediately impressed by the level of experience, knowledge, and genuine passion for all things AMS that Artisio brought to the table.

Our in-depth conversations […] were extremely friendly, professional, and highly objective. And of course, the product was incredibly impressive as well, from the high level of customizability on the front end to the numerous features on the back end. Artisio is a genuine, comprehensive, and no-compromise AMS solution.

[…] As a veteran product manager with over 10 years of experience working with business partners of all shapes and sizes, I can honestly say that Artisio is at the top of my list of best partners to work with.”

Rares Co-Founder & CMO, Hector Tantoh, said:
“From a marketing standpoint it was important that adding a new product feature enhanced our customer experience without confusing them.

Artisio was able to provide a very customizable solution for us that kept our core brand elements the same, so our customers knew they were dealing with the same brand they have come to know, but added the desired functionality for an auctions engine. This is the best of both worlds for us and a big part of the reason why we decided to partner with them.”

Artisio Co-Founder & CEO, Berdia Qamarauli, said:
“Our aim at Artisio is to become the world’s leading auction management software provider across all industry levels. Partnering with Rares, a first of its kind marketplace and social community investing in sneaker culture, demonstrates just how incredibly versatile Artisio AMS is as a product.

In time, we will enable Rares to execute online sales via their web platform and target exciting new markets as well as fresh buyer and collector cohorts. Additionally, engaging with Rares continues to strengthen our position in the US, which is a very important market for us.”

Artisio’s collaboration with Rares expertly demonstrates just how quickly the auction software market is moving forward, together with the versatile demand for such a product. Artisio being able to provide their services to Rares is a testament to both their software innovation and market-leading approach to auction software.
