An estate of items, identified and valued — with the evidence attached.

Batch intake for dealers, auctioneers, probate teams and estate professionals: up to 100 photos per upload, grouped into items automatically, then researched in parallel. Each item returns its own evidenced report — identification with the features supporting it, comparable sold results with links, condition priced rather than implied, and a stated confidence level. Export to PDF, Excel or CSV. What you do with the inventory afterwards is your business: Findthevalueof does not route sales, take commission, or recommend a venue on this service.

Upload a whole estate at once instead of item by item

Drag and drop up to 100 photos in a single upload, with no pre-sorting required. Photos are grouped into individual items automatically; you inspect the groupings and drag photos between items, add more, or create new items before any credits are spent. Every item is then researched at the same time and the results come back together, so whatever its size the intake arrives as a structured, documented starting point rather than a pile of photographs.

What the report contains for every item

Each item returns an identification with the maker, period and the countable features that support the attribution, together with what evidence would change the answer. Comparable sold results are listed with their source, date and price, ranked by how closely they match, and linked so they can be opened and judged directly. Condition is priced rather than implied — the report states what the condition does to the figure. A confidence level is given with the reasoning behind it. Across a whole intake, items are tiered anchor, mid, low or review-needed so specialist time goes where it counts, and regulatory points such as export licensing, CITES, the Ivory Act and capital gains thresholds are flagged per item.

How the numbers are evidenced

Nothing in a report is a synthesised figure. Each estimate is built from named sales — auction lot results and dealer listings — ranked by how closely they match, with the date, the price and a link to the record, so a consignor or a beneficiary can be walked through the working line by line. A completed report cites four comparable sales in the typical case (median across 2,797 reports). Confidence is stated as a percentage rather than implied, and an uncertain attribution comes with what needs verifying. Items that genuinely warrant in-hand specialist review are flagged with the type of expert needed and the typical cost of an opinion.

Who uses it: probate teams, dealers, auction houses

Probate teams, executors and attorneys get a structured, researched inventory built from whatever photos the client provides, with methodology and comparable sales cited for beneficiary discussions and tax filings. Dealers and collectors get consistent, documented pricing per acquisition and an inventory an insurer, accountant or buyer can work from directly. Auction house consignment teams can pre-screen an entire intake before committing photography and cataloguing resources, and use comparable sales per lot to inform reserve and consignor conversations.

Named collections, export formats and data control

Batch valuations are organised into named collections — by estate, client, property, or any category that suits your practice — and items can be moved between collections at any time. A dashboard shows total estimated values, item counts and status across multiple estates at a glance. Export as an Excel workbook or CSV, choosing exactly which fields to include, from comparable sales to condition notes; the Excel export embeds each item's thumbnail beside its row. Individual PDF reports download per item. Uploads travel over TLS, are stored encrypted, and are visible only to your account.

Pricing for businesses, the free first pilot, and what these reports are for

Pricing for businesses and high-volume users is a conversation rather than a fixed tariff, covering structure and white-labelled output; engagements range from a single-collection run to monthly arrangements. Send photos of your next intake and they will be run, the full documented inventory returned, and the whole thing walked through on a 30-minute call — no charge, no obligation. The reports are research-based value estimates and structured documentation intended as professional starting points. They are designed to accelerate professional workflows, not replace them, and should be reviewed by a qualified appraiser before use in legal filings, insurance claims or tax documentation.
