Event Studio

One place to run an event, from the first pitch to the show. Pitches is the first module. Each one after it smooths another step, and they all work together inside a project, behind one sign-in.

One sign-in, every module

Switching modules is the grid button at the top left, the same one the admin already has. A new module is one more tile, so nothing else in the app has to move.

Shared foundation: sign-in, each client’s data and brand kits

Like a cairn, each module rests on the one below. Pitches goes first, and everything after it reuses the same sign-in, client data and branding.

Built around projects

Everything in Event Studio lives inside a project. A client has projects, a project like a tour has stops, and each module is a tab inside it. One side is what you’re working on, the other is the tool you use for it.
