Who Are We
Back in 2024, we started noticing something that really bothered us. Amazing Irish artists were getting lost in the shuffle on massive platforms like eBay, Etsy, and Amazon. These talented creators were paying huge commission fees just to have their work buried under millions of other listings. We kept hearing the same frustrations from artists around Dublin and across Ireland – they needed a space that actually understood their needs.
That’s when the idea for Art-Tee.ie was born. We’re a Dublin-based team who decided to do something about it. After months of planning and building, we’re launching our multivendor marketplace in 2025. We wanted to create something different – a platform that puts Irish creativity first, where artists don’t have to compete with mass-produced items from around the world.
Starting this journey wasn’t easy, but we knew Irish artists deserved better. We’ve spent countless hours talking to creators, understanding their challenges, and building a platform that actually works for them.
Our Goals
Our mission is simple: give Irish artists the spotlight they deserve. We’re here to create a thriving community where creativity meets commerce without the headaches of oversaturated marketplaces.
We want to help our local creative community grow. While other platforms treat artists like just another seller, we see them as the heart of what makes Irish culture special. Our goal is to connect these talented people directly with customers who appreciate authentic, locally-made art.
We’re also committed to fair pricing. No more watching your profits disappear into excessive commission fees. We believe artists should keep more of what they earn so they can focus on what they do best – creating amazing work.
Our Team
Our team is made up of art lovers, tech enthusiasts, and people who genuinely care about supporting Irish creativity. We’re based right here in Dublin, which means we understand the local market and the unique challenges Irish artists face.
We’ve got developers who’ve worked on e-commerce platforms and customer service people who actually care about helping both artists and buyers have a great experience.
What makes us different is that several of our team members are artists themselves. They’ve felt the frustration of high commission fees and getting lost in crowded marketplaces. This personal experience drives everything we do
