Photograph a painting, print or object and ArtMax tells you what it appears to be. Research it properly before you buy, then keep the artwork, its research and its paperwork together in your own visual Gallery. START WITH WHAT YOU HAVE Take a photo, choose one from Photos, paste a listing link, upload a file, or type what you know. A free Quick Look gives you a first read in seconds: what the work appears to be, the visible details that matter, and what to check next. RESEARCH BEFORE YOU BUY When a piece deserves a closer look, run Full Research. ArtMax searches public sources and builds a readable report with direct links, comparable sales and listings where available, and the questions worth asking before you buy. Reports stay with the artwork, and you can share one or save it as a PDF. KEEP EVERYTHING WITH THE ARTWORK Add condition reports, invoices, certificates, verso photos and framing images to the artwork they belong to. Notes, provenance and documents stay in one place instead of scattered across email and camera rolls. FOLLOW A PURCHASE FROM OFFER TO WALL Track a work through Buying Journey: considering, pursuing, purchased, in transit, delivered, owned. Set your limit and keep the deal details beside the research. KEEP LOOKING See more by the artists you care about, and ask ArtMax to keep looking for an artist and check back for new opportunities. SHARED COLLECTIONS Buying with an advisor, partner or family member? Share a collection so everyone sees the same artwork, research and records. Each person can mark Interested, Pass or Discuss, and requests for a decision or approval sit with the artwork, not in a long email thread. Your personal Gallery stays private. YOUR GALLERY Everything you own or are considering appears on a calm, image-first Gallery wall, ready to open on your phone wherever you are: at an auction preview, a fair, an estate sale or a dealer's back room. NO SUBSCRIPTION Quick Look is free. Full Research is bought one report at a time, with no subscription and no trial that turns into a charge. WHAT ARTMAX IS AND ISN'T ArtMax organizes research and evidence so you can make your own decision. It is not an appraisal, an authentication or a guaranteed valuation. Sources can be incomplete or wrong, and important purchases deserve a qualified professional's opinion.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Appraiser.AI at 512 against ArtMax's 1. ArtMax's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Appraiser.AI sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and ArtMax sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
ArtMax holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Appraiser.AI has 512 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Appraiser.AI ships an update every 2 weeks, ArtMax weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
