About Beetle and the Leadership

Beetle is a free search engine which indexes factual auction data, price histories, and market analytics together in one place. The initial founding of Beetle was in 2025, where the mission was to make art valuations easier by providing analytics to assess art as a research project. The research project which was the ‘Beetle 1’ quickly grew and developed into a platform as the indexing systems became more sophisticated alongside Beetles’ algebraic refineries.

Beetle is designed to aid collectors, art enthusiasts, specialists, galleries, students, clients and auction houses by pursuing a transparent view of an artist’s market through their sales histories with total clarity and speed. Users can be well-informed and confident about an artist’s performance in the secondary market through Beetle.
