Marketing software for art galleries at catalog scale.
Create lifelike room mockups and cinematic video reels for every work in your catalog, without a photographer, videographer, or in-house design team. The presentation layer collectors expect, at gallery-volume pricing.
Collectors decide on most works before they ever walk into the gallery. White-wall installation shots don't convert remote buyers; they convert visitors. A gallery managing 50–500 active works needs a way to publish each piece in a real-room context at social cadence, without absorbing the cost of a recurring photoshoot. MOCKLIO is the production layer that closes that gap.
Built for the way galleries actually market
One workflow. Every artist. Every channel collectors live in.
Whole-catalog presentation
Generate room-scene mockups for every available work without re-shooting. Curators upload the print-ready file once and produce social posts, newsletter assets and viewing-room images from the same file.
Cinematic launch reels
Lifelike video reels for exhibition openings, artist drops and art-fair previews, created with the same techniques Hollywood CGI studios use, in the formats your social channels need.
Remote-collector outreach
Send room-context visuals during DM and email follow-up. Out-of-city collectors can evaluate scale, fit and atmosphere without flying in.
Available-works portfolio
Smart Portfolio page on your own domain for current inventory: live within a day, no developer needed.
Mock up your next show in real rooms.
Add cinematic videos on the Atelier or Gallery plan
DIY photoshoot vs in-house designer vs MOCKLIO
Three ways galleries get artwork-in-room visuals. Same goal, very different cost curve.
| Criteria | Photographer + stylist | In-house designer | MOCKLIO Gallery |
|---|---|---|---|
| Per-work cost | $200–$800 | $80–$200 (loaded) | $5.98 per video |
| Time to first asset | 1–3 weeks | 2–5 days | Under 60 seconds (still) / same-day (video) |
| Scales to 50+ works/month | ✗ Practically no | ✗ Becomes the bottleneck | ✓ Built for it |
| Multiple aspect ratios per work | Extra fees | Re-export overhead | Image mockups in 1:1, 4:5, 9:16 |
| Multi-artist coverage | Re-quoted per artist | Per-artist Photoshop files | One account, every artist |
| Ready for IG Reels & viewing rooms | Manual edit & export | Manual edit & export | ✓ Native |
“The video mock-ups are at a level above anything else I have come across.”
“Mockl.io is not just a handy mock-up tool. It is a proper presentation tool for artists and galleries who want their work to look as good online as it deserves to look.”
I have spent a lot of time looking for a genuinely high-quality way to create artwork mock-ups and video presentations for our catalogue, and Mockl.io is easily the best I have found.
At Artlandish Aboriginal Art Gallery, we work with a large catalogue of original artworks, and presentation matters enormously. Buyers need to be able to imagine how a piece will look in a real home or interior space. Static product photos are important, but they only go so far. Mockl.io takes that next step and makes the artwork feel alive, polished, professional and genuinely desirable.
What impressed me most is the quality. The video mock-ups are at a level above anything else I have come across. They do not look cheap, awkward or template-driven. They look very cool, like the kind of thing you would normally need a photographer, videographer, editor, interior stylist or 3D artist to create. With Mockl.io, you can get that type of result without needing any of those skills.
That is the real magic of it. No technical knowledge. No photography set-up. No videography. No editing software. No painful learning curve. You upload the artwork, choose the scene, and Mockl.io does the heavy lifting.
For an art gallery like us, that is a serious advantage. We are planning to use Mockl.io to create many video mock-ups across our catalogue because it gives us a much better way to show artworks online, on social media, and in marketing campaigns. It helps bridge the gap between seeing a flat image on a screen and imagining the artwork as a real piece in a real space.
I have looked extensively for something that does this properly, and honestly, I have not found anything that comes close. Mockl.io is not just a handy mock-up tool. It is a proper presentation tool for artists and galleries who want their work to look as good online as it deserves to look.
Highly recommended.

How galleries roll MOCKLIO into the exhibition workflow
1. Upload the print-ready file once
Use the same hi-res image already produced for catalog and press materials. No additional export pass, no Photoshop work, no per-artist setup.
2. Choose a scene that matches the work's positioning
Pick from 24+ premium interiors (luxury gallery, modern loft, designer living room, sanctuary suite) selected to match the buyer profile of the work.
3. Generate image mockups + a cinematic video
Image mockups are ready in under a minute and export to 1:1, 4:5, 9:16 or 16:9. The 10-second cinematic video comes in 16:9 or 9:16, delivered same-day with priority on the Gallery plan.
4. Deploy across collector channels
Use the output in IG reels, newsletter, WhatsApp follow-ups, art-fair previews, viewing-room emails, and on a custom-domain available-works portfolio.
What gallery directors usually ask before signing on
Objection
“We represent dozens of artists. Do we need a license per artist?”
No. Atelier and Gallery plans both cover every artist on your roster and every work you produce visuals for. No per-artist licensing or per-seat pricing.
Objection
“How do we know the output is high enough quality for collectors?”
MOCKLIO is built with the same techniques Hollywood CGI studios use to get realistic lighting, shadows and reflections, so the artwork looks like real photography of a real installation, not a flat composite. Galleries use the output directly in collector decks and viewing-room emails alongside professional catalog photography.
Objection
“What if our marketing person leaves: is the workflow tied to one person?”
The workflow is intentionally simple enough that a new staff member is productive on the first day. No design software to install, no plugin ecosystem and no technical setup to hand off.
Objection
“Can we use this for art-fair prep and pre-opening campaigns?”
Yes. Galleries use MOCKLIO to produce launch reels for openings, room-context previews for art-fair audiences, and remote-buyer outreach decks for collectors who can't attend in person.
Objection
“Is 50 videos enough for a busy gallery?”
50/month covers a typical rotation of 1–2 launches plus ongoing inventory marketing for most galleries. If you need fewer, the Atelier plan at 25 videos / month is the right fit. Higher-volume galleries can request a custom tier; contact us and we'll size it to the catalog.
Objection
“How does this affect our relationship with the artists we represent?”
Artists tend to view MOCKLIO output as an upgrade to their work being shown well online. Many galleries share generated assets back with the artist for their own social channels, strengthening the relationship.

FAQ
Volume plan FAQ for galleries
MOCKLIO is built specifically for galleries that need to present a rotating catalog at scale. One account covers every artist and every work, room mockups are produced in under 60 seconds, and cinematic videos are delivered the same day on the volume plans: Atelier ($179/mo, 25 videos) and Gallery ($299/mo, 50 videos).
Two volume tiers: Atelier at $179/month for 25 videos (and unlimited image mockups), and Gallery at $299/month for 50 videos. Yearly billing on either plan gives you one month free. Gallery yearly works out to $5.48 per video, more than 50% below the standard $12 per-video à la carte rate.
Yes. One Atelier or Gallery account covers every artist on your roster and every work in inventory. Curatorial and marketing staff can both upload, generate, and download visuals; no per-artist or per-seat licensing.
No. You upload the artist's print-ready file, pick a scene, and MOCKLIO produces the mockup or cinematic reel. Galleries explicitly choose MOCKLIO to replace photographer, videographer and 3D-artist costs across catalog work.
Yes. Galleries use MOCKLIO mockups in collector DMs, follow-up emails, WhatsApp messages, Instagram reels, newsletters, and on available-works pages. Room context dramatically reduces back-and-forth about scale, fit and atmosphere for out-of-city buyers.
A new exhibition's worth of image mockups can typically be produced in a single afternoon. Cinematic videos are produced same-day on the volume plans, with priority delivery on Gallery.
Galleries on the Gallery plan can purchase additional videos at the discounted plan rate, or upgrade to a custom volume tier. Contact us with your monthly throughput and we'll size it to the catalog.
