Import Your CV in Seconds
Building a complete profile on Artsume just got a lot faster. You can now import your existing CV — whether you're creating a new account or adding to an established profile.
How It Works
Upload a PDF or paste your CV text, and Artsume will automatically:
- Parse every section — education, exhibitions, awards, residencies, publications, collections, professional experience, and more
- Match organizations — galleries, museums, universities, and granting bodies are automatically linked to their Artsume profiles
- Detect duplicates — entries that already exist in your CV are flagged so you don't end up with doubles
- Extract profile details — bio, artist statement, contact info, website, social links, location, and disciplines are pulled from your document
You review everything before it's added. Each entry can be selected, edited, or skipped. Profile fields show a side-by-side comparison of your current value vs. the imported one, so you can pick which to keep.
For New Accounts
If you're just getting started, CV import is the fastest way to go from zero to a complete professional profile. Upload your CV during onboarding and your profile, CV sections, and organization connections are populated in one step — no manual data entry.
For Existing Profiles
Already have entries on Artsume? The importer is smart about it. Duplicate detection ensures existing entries aren't re-added, and you can selectively import only the new items. Update your profile fields individually — each one has its own toggle, including per-link control over which social media links to add.
Apply Faster
A complete profile means faster applications. Many fields in Artsume's application forms auto-fill from your profile and CV, so the more information you have, the less you type each time you apply.
Coming Soon: The Artsume Arts Agent
We're building something new — an AI-powered Arts Agent that works for you.
The Arts Agent will use your complete profile to find arts opportunities from around the world that match your practice. It looks at your disciplines, exhibition history, location, career stage, and preferences to surface the most relevant open calls, residencies, grants, and exhibitions.
How It Will Work
- Personalized matching — the agent learns what matters to you from your profile, CV, and past applications
- Global reach — opportunities are sourced from organizations worldwide, not just those on Artsume
- Better profile = better matches — the more complete your profile, the more accurately the agent can match you to opportunities that fit
Build Your Profile Now
The Arts Agent will be most effective for artists with detailed profiles. Every CV entry, portfolio piece, discipline, and preference gives the agent more context to find closer matches.
Import your CV today so you're ready when the Arts Agent launches.
We'll share more details soon. Stay tuned.
