How does a multi-generation collection survive across owners, insurers, and one estate attorney? The collector who plans for the long horizon already knows the answer is record. The atelier behind AtelierRecords builds the rail - every owner, every appraisal, every condition note, on the iPhone alone. No cloud. No AI. No insurer feed, no auction-house API, no due-diligence database query. Records belong to the collector and only the collector. For the UHNW private collector of fine art and decorative art, the rail covers paintings, sculptures, works on paper, furniture, silver, porcelain, textiles - eight medium categories, four photo angles per piece (front, reverse, detail, installation), dimensions, edition number, catalogue raisonne reference, signed and inscribed fields. Three moments AtelierRecords answers: When a piece passes to the next generation, the chain - every owner, every acquisition method, every sale catalogue reference - is already documented. The estate attorney reads one PDF instead of reconstructing decades. When an insurer asks for next year's schedule, an itemized list formatted to Lloyd's of London, AXA Art, Chubb Masterpiece, Berkley Asset Protection, AIG Private Client Group generates in minutes. The renewal week shrinks from days to hours. When a pre-1945 piece surfaces a 1933-1945 ownership gap, reference resources surface immediately: Art Loss Register, IFAR, German Lost Art Foundation, US Holocaust Memorial Museum, Washington Conference Principles 1998. Reference only - no AI, no claims, no API. The rail to brief counsel. Day one, everyone gets: - 1 piece with basic info, up to 4 photos - Per-piece Markdown share so records stay portable - Face ID app lock - The 5-section Disclaimer (Art World Orgs, Insurers, Government, No AI No Cloud, Reference Only) Plus adds: - Unlimited pieces - Provenance Chain Builder with rule-based 1933-1945 gap flag - Due Diligence Reference Tool - Insurance Schedule Manager for the five major art insurers - Six PDF reports: Insurance Schedule, Provenance Pack, Due Diligence Reference, Estate Inventory, IRS Form 8283 Companion, Comprehensive Collection Archive - Appraisal history with 5-year expiration tracking - Condition Report Log - Estate Legacy Planner Two ways to open Plus: Plus Yearly at $39.99/year with a 30-day free trial for first-time subscribers, or Plus Lifetime at $299 one-time for the collections heirs will inherit. Same Plus capability either way. Yearly auto-renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period end; manage or cancel in Apple ID > Subscriptions. Any unused portion of the trial is forfeited when the subscription begins. Lifetime is a one-time non-consumable purchase. AtelierRecords is a personal records organizer. It is not affiliated with any government agency, auction house, art insurer, due diligence database, appraisal organization, or conservation organization. The app uses no AI, no machine learning, no cloud processing, no third-party SDK. Provenance gap flags and due diligence references are reference-only. For appraisal, consult an AAA-, ASA-, or ISA-certified appraiser. For 1933-1945 due diligence, consult art world legal counsel. Designed exclusively for iPhone.

Your library stays on the phone or tablet, with folders, favorites, and search Lock the app with Face ID or Touch ID when the paperwork is sensitive ONE PURCHASE, NOT A SUBSCRIPTION Pro is a single unlock. It opens the full PDF toolkit and ID photo tools, and it removes the camera to PDF page limit. The price is shown on the App Store before you pay. Restore the purchase on a new device with the same Apple ID. BEFORE YOU SEND A FILE SnapDoc helps you make personal copies and packets to share. A landlord, bank, school, clinic, or government office may require a specific size or format. Confirm their rules before you submit. ID photo presets are print sizes, not a promise that any agency will accept the photo. Download SnapDoc and turn the page in front of you into a PDF you can sign, search, and send.
