What's newon Viewroom

The latest product updates, week after week.

Recent updates

  1. Improvement

    Artist sheet: your statement as an option, each text on its own page

    The artist sheet now offers your artist statement next to the biography. Biography, statement and CV each start on a new page: the CV no longer begins at the bottom of a page.

  2. New

    Your artist statement, next to your bio

    Write your artist statement next to your biography. It joins your press kit and can become a page of your portfolio.

  3. New

    VAT on your artwork prices

    If you charge VAT, set your rate and say whether your prices include it. The mention shows next to your prices, online and in your PDFs.

  4. Improvement

    Pick a catalogue image from your inventory

    To illustrate a catalogue, pick a work from your inventory or one of its views. No need to upload the file a second time.

  5. Improvement

    Smoother dashboard navigation

    A page you already visited shows right away while it refreshes, instead of a loading screen. After a change, the Back button shows the updated page.

  6. Fix

    Portfolio settings now show on Safari

    On older Safari versions, portfolio layout thumbnails and some catalogue pickers did not appear. They now display.

  7. Improvement

    Side-by-side works at the same size

    In two- and three-work portfolio layouts, works placed side by side share one frame instead of coming out at two different sizes.

  8. Fix

    Batch-added works now show in "Available works"

    Works created through batch upload were missing from the automatic "Available works" catalogue, both publicly and in the dashboard counter. They now appear there, and previously created ones have been restored.

  9. Fix

    Long PDF catalogues at signup

    Analysing a long PDF catalogue imported at signup could fail to start. It now starts normally.

  10. Fix

    The dashboard works with browser translation

    With your browser's automatic translation on, the dashboard could show an error on every page. It now stays in French or English, and works.

  11. Fix

    Catalogue PDFs with heavy images

    A catalogue with very large original files could fail to produce its PDF. The size of your originals no longer blocks it.

  12. Improvement

    A character counter on descriptions

    A work's description takes up to 1,000 characters and its medium 300, with a counter. In the PDF, a longer text is shortened instead of blocking it.

  13. New

    Your artist sheet as a PDF

    Generate a print-ready artist sheet: photo, biography and CV, portrait or landscape. Handy on an exhibition table.

  14. Improvement

    A more responsive dashboard

    Each page has its own loading screen, catalogue tabs switch without reloading the page, and a work's page opens faster.

  15. Improvement

    Catalogue PDFs ready in two languages

    A catalogue's PDF is kept ready in French and English. It opens faster for your visitors.

  16. New

    Price lists as PDFs

    From a catalogue, generate a print-ready price list: portrait or landscape, one or two columns, prices shown or hidden.

  17. New

    Link works to your exhibitions

    In your CV, attach works to each exhibition. On a work's page, an Exhibitions tab lists where it was shown.

  18. New

    Studio events: several artists, one catalogue

    With a Studio account, build an event catalogue that brings several artists together: one section per artist, a public page and a PDF.

  19. Improvement

    Sort your inventory by price

    Sort your inventory by price, highest first. Works without a price come last.

  20. Improvement

    Collections right from work creation

    File a new work into one or more collections as you create it. You can also create a collection on the fly from the picker.

  21. Improvement

    Portfolio: colours and autosave

    Pick a background colour for your portfolio's pages and captions. Text fields save on their own, and artwork previews are sharp.

  22. Improvement

    More images imported at signup

    When you import a PDF catalogue at signup, Viewroom keeps the images of the first 120 works, up from 30.

  23. Fix

    Long biographies in catalogue PDFs

    A long biography could overlap in the catalogue PDF, or block it beyond 2,500 characters. It now continues on the next page.

  24. New

    New portfolio layouts

    Each section can open with an image divider, a title-only divider, or none. New "1 work + detail" layout. The cover is framed by dragging.

  25. Improvement

    Automatic prices shown as you type

    With automatic pricing, the resulting price shows under the coefficient as you type, with the calculation. No need to save to check.

  26. Fix

    Portal saves after deleting a catalogue

    After deleting a catalogue selected on your portal, saving the portal could fail. It works again.

  27. Fix

    Portfolio preview matches the PDF

    The portfolio editor's preview and the exported PDF now show the same layout, at the same density.

  28. Improvement

    Portfolio biography on one page

    New "Text only, one column" layout. With "Text, then portrait", untick the option that lets the biography run onto a second page: it then fits on one.

  29. Fix

    Works created as sold stay sold

    A work created as already sold showed as available. It is now recorded as sold from the start.

  30. New

    Residencies in your CV

    Add your artist residencies to your CV. They can appear in your portfolio's CV and in your press kit.

  31. New

    A CV section in your portfolio

    Your portfolio can include a CV: education, talks, teaching and press, pulled from your CV without retyping. Captions come in three levels of detail.

  32. New

    Portfolios in landscape format

    Create a portfolio in A4 landscape, with its own layouts, preview and PDF export. The end page can be customised too.

  33. Fix

    Catalogue PDFs reflect your latest edits

    After an edit, the downloaded PDF could show the previous version of the catalogue. It now includes your latest changes.

  34. Improvement

    Undo a sale recorded by mistake

    A work marked as sold by mistake can go back to available from the explanation window, including from a catalogue's settings.

  35. Improvement

    Better previews for shared links

    When you share your portal, press kit or a catalogue, the preview shows your portrait or one of your images, not a generic picture.

  36. Fix

    Signup stays in your language

    Some signup steps switched to French for English-speaking visitors. The whole flow now stays in your language.

  37. New

    Your portfolio as a PDF

    Build a PDF portfolio organised in sections of works, to send to galleries and residencies. Guided editor with a live preview, up to 10 portfolios per account.

  38. New

    Certificates of authenticity

    Generate a work's certificate of authenticity as a numbered PDF, in French or English, to print and sign. The work page gains an Edition section.

  39. New

    A Studio account for galleries

    A Studio account lets a gallery or studio manage several artists, each in their own space, under a single subscription.

  40. New

    Editions sold copy by copy

    For an edition, record each sale copy by copy. Viewroom counts the copies left and marks the work sold once the edition is sold out.

  41. New

    Prices in dollars in the United States

    From the United States, Viewroom is shown and billed in dollars. Applicable sales tax is added at checkout.

  42. Improvement

    Acquired works on contact pages

    A contact's page lists the works they bought, or sold as a gallery, with date and amount.

  43. Improvement

    Add a whole collection to a catalogue

    When selecting a catalogue's works, add or remove every work of a collection in one click.

  44. Improvement

    A redesigned press kit editor

    The press kit editor gains a structure column to move between sections, and photos are added by drag and drop.

  45. Improvement

    Redesigned inventory and catalogues

    A new look for the inventory, the catalogue list and the navigation. The "Available works" catalogue joins the catalogue grid.

  46. Improvement

    The price calculator for sculpture

    The price calculator offers a 3D mode: (height + width + depth) × coefficient, plus production costs.

  47. Fix

    Pages follow the language of their address

    After switching language, some pages mixed French and English. The language in the address, /fr or /en, now applies to the whole page.

  48. New

    A free online price calculator

    A public page calculates a painting's price with the (height + width) × coefficient method, in French and English.

  49. Fix

    Your prices kept at import

    When you import a PDF catalogue at signup, its prices are kept as they are instead of being recalculated.

  50. Fix

    Catalogue PDFs open for every visitor

    A public catalogue's PDF could fail to open for signed-out visitors. It now downloads for everyone.

  51. New

    Thumbnails or dots for extra images

    Choose per catalogue whether visitors browse a work's additional images with thumbnails or dots. Thumbnails are the default.

  52. New

    A mosaic view for your catalogues

    Your public catalogue can display as a mosaic: four columns where each work keeps its proportions.

  53. New

    A customisable PDF cover

    Set a catalogue PDF's cover: centred or full-page image, background colour, text position, year shown or not.

  54. Improvement

    Edit a work without leaving the list

    A work's page opens beside your inventory, which stays visible as a column. The inventory also sorts by inventory number.

  55. Improvement

    Live portal preview

    While you edit your portal, a live preview shows beside the settings.

  56. New

    Automatic "Available works" catalogue

    A new catalogue keeps itself in sync with your available works — create a work and it shows up publicly without any manual step.

  57. New

    Preview additional images from the grid

    Hover the dots that appear on your public catalogue grid to cycle through a work's additional images — no click required.

  58. Fix

    Reorder additional images on mobile

    You can now reorder a work's additional images from your phone — drag-and-drop works on touch screens.

  59. Improvement

    Refreshed homepage

    New homepage, lighter header and a less intrusive cookie banner — Viewroom introduces itself more clearly.

  60. New

    Add a description to each work

    A free-text field under each work to tell its story, context, or intent. Shown on the public catalogue page and in the PDF.

  61. New

    Image protection on by default

    Your catalogues now block right-click "save image" out of the box. Turn it off per catalogue if you want to allow downloads.

  62. Improvement

    Unlimited catalogues on the Artist plan

    Create as many catalogues as you like, and up to 1,000 works, on the Artist plan — no more cap at 5 catalogues and 200 works.

  63. New

    Quick catalogue duplication

    Duplicate a catalogue in one click from the list and start from an existing baseline instead of rebuilding from scratch.

  64. New

    Per-catalogue price visibility

    Decide catalogue by catalogue whether prices are visible to visitors or kept for private conversations.

  65. New

    14-day free trial, then €9.90/month

    Try Viewroom and every feature for fourteen days — no card, no commitment. After that: €9.90/month or €99/year — that's €8.25/month on annual, the price of a Parisian beer or a good café latte.

  66. Improvement

    Instant image deletion

    When you delete an additional image, it now disappears immediately — no more brief loading wait.
