Catalog Management
Organize lots into auction catalogs, manage inventory, and keep listings structured from a centralized dashboard.
AI cataloging for auctioneers
Catalog the whole auction from your phone.
Snap a few photos of each lot. LotForge writes the title, description and estimate while you move to the next item, then exports the finished catalog straight into HiBid, AuctionFlex and more.
2.5¢ a lot after that. No subscription. Lots never expire.
Buying, not selling? Get LotAlerts → Free email alerts when the lots you collect go up for auction.
