intro

archiv is an intuitive, web-based inventory system that allows artists to store, share, and present all their essential data.

book a personal demo or sign up for a free 30 day trial.
»For my studio organization one can talk about a whole new world (studio) order. We talk about the messy time, BA and the now time, AA - After Archiv. Filling an archive is very time consuming. But for us here in the studio, we're very happy with the effort invested, as archiv is so very practical and also fun to work with.«

Kirstine Roepstorff
»Füttern, suchen, finden und bei Bedarf teilen. Ein digitales Werkverzeichnis, so wie ich es mit archiv gefunden habe, schwebte mir schon seit geraumer Zeit vor. Das erspart eine Menge Arbeit, schafft einen guten Überblick und ist von überall her zugänglich.«

Thomas Florschuetz
