panOpticon is a small research services firm based in New York City that develops tools to support art provenance research. Its primary customers include artists’ estates and foundations, scholars, working artists, and researchers who need to organize and publish provenance information. The company emphasizes shaping self-organizing data into higher-level outcomes—clear understanding, accountability, controlled access, effective communication, and the sharing and distribution of usable data and knowledge. In its work, panOpticon adheres to recognized standards in the field, applying the Getty Categories for the Description of Works of Art and The Chicago Manual of Style, and drawing on resources from the Association of Art Editors (AAE) and The Art Institute of Chicago Guide to Museum Publications. It collaborates with professional catalogers to refine its software protocols, aiming to improve data uniformity, reduce redundancy, and enable more efficient retrieval and meaningful content sharing. The system is designed to support reliable publication of information about artworks and histories, assist with exhibitions, educational resources, and the production of authoritative catalogues raisonné.
