The show before the show

See the exhibit before it exists.

CurateSense is the exhibition planning workspace that takes a show from artwork list to installed walls — floorplans, placement, labels, and reports, all in one place. Not a marketing platform that treats planning as an afterthought. Not a virtual gallery that puts your show in someone else's rooms. Not a design suite priced for major institutions.

Why CurateSense

The show before the show

Every feature serves the planning act, not marketing finished art or replacing your venue with someone else's.

Your venue, not ours

A precise digital twin of your own rooms and walls, not a rented template gallery.

The system of record for the show

Artwork data entered once flows to placement, reports, and labels — persistent, spatially accurate, and shared with your team across a months-long production cycle, not a one-off AI prompt.

AI that assists, you control

Built-in assistants handle the busywork. Every curatorial call stays yours.

Honest, accessible pricing

Transparent plans built for organizations institutional software prices out — no bait-and-switch.

Pricing built per show

A one-time Single Exhibit plan for organizations that budget per project, not per subscription.

Your art deserves better than spreadsheets

Built for organizations that mount three to twelve shows a year with a staff of one to five — no registrar, no preparator, and nothing else on the market built around how you actually plan a show, in your venue, at a price that won't break the budget.
