How to Browse Discover

Overview

Discover is the AI Curator catalog where you browse and evaluate art before you contact any seller — it lets buyers and collectors move from curated suggestions to a confident inquiry without leaving the marketplace.

  • Who it’s for — buyers, collectors, and anyone exploring art, whether signed in or just looking.
  • What it covers — TOP PICKS, ARTWORKS with filters, ARTISTS and GALLERIES with Follow buttons, EVENTS with type filters plus Going and Invite actions, VR ROOM spaces that open their public AI galleries, and EDITORIAL stories.
  • What following does — adds that artist’s or gallery’s new artworks to the New Artworks From Users You Follow section on Home and powers follow-based email digests.
  • What Inquire to Purchase does — starts a chat with the seller rather than taking payment.
  • What you end up with — every discovery tab opened, cards and filters read, artists and galleries followed, and rooms and stories opened.

Moments is a public feed of everyone’s moments — not a following feed.

Before you start

  • A Cohart account for the full experience. Signed-out visitors see the same catalog with Log In, Book a Demo, and Start Free in the header.
  • No purchase is needed to browse. Choosing Inquire to Purchase starts a real chat with the seller, and Follow only follows without reserving any artwork, so use them deliberately.
  • If you plan to follow artists or galleries — following adds their new artworks to the New Artworks From Users You Follow section on Home and powers follow-based email digests. Moments is a public feed of all moments, not a following feed.

Tips

  • Inquire to Purchase starts a seller chat — no payment is taken from the Discover list itself.
  • Follow only follows — it never reserves an artwork.
  • Moments and Get Inspired live in the same top nav and are covered separately.

Troubleshooting

  • Want to hide artists you do not want to see while browsing? → the curation and blocking toolbar on ARTWORKS is an admin tool, not a buyer feature → use Filter to narrow the list by artist, medium, price, or size instead.
  • Filter did nothing → the list may still be loading → click the pill again after the list settles.
  • VR room link opens a 3D gallery in a new tab → that is expected: rooms are public AI galleries → the table you may have seen is the owner’s dashboard, not the visitor view.
  • Ended event shows no ticket or RSVP actions → ended events state This event has ended → browse Ongoing Events instead.
