AI writes your lot descriptions while you photograph. Export to AuctionFlex, Proxibid, LiveAuctioneers, and more.
The challenges every auction house faces
Hours spent typing the same phrases over and over for every lot in the catalog.
Different staff members write in different styles, creating an inconsistent catalog.
Manual copy-paste or retyping everything to get it into your auction software.
Guesswork or time-consuming research to price items across every category.
Creating spreadsheets and Word docs that take forever to format professionally.
Auction dates are fixed, but consignments keep coming in until the last minute.

Small auction houses need software that handles the full sale cycle without enterprise pricing or a six-month implementation. Here's an honest look at what's available in 2026.
Gavel Buddy went dark in April 2025 and isn't coming back. If you're an auctioneer looking for a replacement that covers cataloging, clerking, invoicing, and settlements, here's what actually works.
