A sample offer for a fictional act, priced from demand, your own track record and current market conditions.

Demand score

Industry signals, used to forecast costs more accurately and maximize earnings. Six of them — what people are buying, where attention is heading, how the act performs live, and how they have done for you before — roll up into one 0–100 score, refreshed every night.

The sixth signal is your own track record with the act, so the score reflects your results and stays private to you. What you do with it depends on your seat:

Promoters
Size the guarantee against what the room will actually do, before the offer goes out.
Agents
Hold your number with evidence, and see which markets are ready for the next run of dates.
Managers
Track where an artist is gaining, and time a release or a routing decision to it.
Sync & supervisors
Quote a placement against current demand, and see which catalog is heating up before the brief lands.
  1. Ticket Intent Movement toward a purchase: trackers, announced dates, search demand in this market.
  2. Velocity Which way it's going. A 60 climbing beats an 80 cooling.
  3. Live Perf. Whether the act delivers live, and how often they play.
  4. Web Buzz Search, pageviews and community size, weighted as interest rather than attendance.
  5. Sync Demand Catalog pull into film, TV and ads, which tends to lead a wider audience.
  6. Your History Your sell-through and settlements against guarantee, and how recently you booked them.

Modern tools, tailor made for the music industry.

hihat ai

AI tools powered by your data.

It answers from your deals, your holds, your settlements and your history with each counterparty — which offers are waiting on you, what you have made on an act before, where the quarter stands. Answers cite the records they came from, so you can open the one you want to see.

It can act, too: accept an offer, counter it, confirm or release a hold. Every write is proposed first and runs only when you confirm it, as you, with the permissions you already have.

Email sync

Automatically turn an email into a hold, offer or confirmed date.

Connect your mailbox and the booking traffic stops being yours to retype. Dates, fees, venues and terms are read out of the thread, and every record keeps a link back to the email that produced it.

An unambiguous message is filed on its own. Anything less goes to a review queue with the original beside it, so nothing is created on a guess.
