For museums and institutions
Catalogue the backlog with the team you have
Many collections have more objects waiting for a record than staff to write them. Tessera drafts the record from photos; your registrar checks, corrects and approves.
- Drafts, not decisionsTessera proposes identification, dating and description. Nothing enters the record until someone approves it.
- Spectrum-based fieldsObject entry, condition checks, treatments, location and movement, following the UK collections standard.
- LIDO exportShare records with portals and aggregators in the standard museum exchange format.
- A full audit trailEvery change with the person and the date. Appraisals and evidence are kept as recorded, never overwritten.
- Kept in the EUDatabase in Ireland, servers in Frankfurt.
- Reference objects from the webWith Tessera Loupe, capture comparable pieces from online catalogues and sale records, each with where it came from.
- Volunteer-friendlySimple enough for a volunteer with a phone, strict enough for the registrar.
