Diiclae provides digital identification for physical art, offering smart certificates, autonomous management, blockchain provenance, automated royalties, and new monetization opportunities. The company aims to automate the appreciation of art and ensure that artwork becomes a royalty-earning asset. Diiclae was founded to address the challenges faced by independent collectors and artists who were unaware of the benefits of certificates of authenticity and the limitations of traditional art galleries, such as high commission rates and a lack of reselling royalties. Diiclae transitioned collectors and artists from physical certificates to a digital solution, positioning itself as a provider of portfolio management and art market appreciation for modern and blue-chip art.
