Artisio
OUR PROCESS
CLIENT
Our client is Artisio, a promising startup building SaaS software for auction companies, recognized with multiple startup awards. Unlike generic AMS platforms, Artisio customizes its software per client — adapting workflows, report formats, and notification logic to each auction house's specific operational needs. Established clients such as Venduehuis der Notarissen rely on Artisio to automate routine processes, freeing up staff time and reducing manual errors.
PROJECT GOALS
Reports were generated manually through a rigid, hard-to-extend system, with no automated notifications for bid limits, payments, or inventory changes. Reconciliation of invoices and settlements was slow and error-prone, done by hand, and there was no quick way to create or edit bids directly from the sale page. On top of that, synchronous report generation limited platform performance at scale.
We built a reusable, universal PDF report system covering 8+ report types with per-client customization, and moved report generation to an async Celery pipeline with secure download delivery. A multi-trigger notification system now covers bids, payments, inventory, and account changes, while quick bid creation and editing modals were added across the sale page, LLP, and continuous auction. A reconciliation system for invoices and settlements with partial update support rounds out the improvements.

KEY FEATURES
Auction catalogs, police book, bid results, settlement checks, and more — generated per client without manual formatting.
Automatic alerts for bid limits, payments, inventory changes, and account updates, keeping bidders and admins in sync.
Create or edit bids directly from the sale page, LLP, or continuous auction without leaving the flow.

RESULTS
Reporting shifted from manual, one-off generation to an automated, scalable pipeline, cutting the time staff spend on repetitive back-office tasks. Notifications now keep bidders and admins informed without manual follow-up, and reconciliation is faster and more accurate, reducing errors in financial data. Together, these improvements led to a more intuitive interface, higher retention, and stronger user engagement across the platform.
