Curate, Interpret and Engage Smarter with AI

Every object has a story. You're the one who has to get it right.

You're staring at an unattributed object, a label deadline, and a cataloguing backlog that never shrinks — and AI keeps offering confident answers you can't fully trust yet. This book gives you the OBJECT Protocol and CURATE Framework — a safety check and a research method built for AI, not around it — plus 10 ready-to-use prompts for labels, catalogue entries, and visitor-facing text. Built by an AI engineering firm for the professionals who turn objects into public knowledge — and need every AI shortcut to hold up under scholarly and community scrutiny.
