Orchestrate your event teams with military precision
Extreme activity peak management
Event management (festivals, trade shows, concerts, sports events) concentrates massive activity into a few days. Our algorithm scales and schedules your teams to seamlessly cover critical phases: load-in, live operations (guest reception), and load-out. It ensures every area of the venue has the right staffing at the right time, avoiding bottlenecks at entrances or concession stands.
Multi-role coordination and geographical zoning
You need to simultaneously manage radically different roles: technicians (riggers, audio, lighting), security guards, hospitality staff, and catering teams. The software centralizes all these job functions and manages geographical zoning (Main Stage, VIP Area, Parking Lots, Backstage) to guarantee seamless communication and flawless coverage across the entire event site.
The volunteer and short-term contract challenge
Events rely heavily on volunteers, temporary entertainment staff, and casual workers with highly fragmented availability (e.g., "available only Thursday evening and Saturday morning, but refuses to work at the parking lot"). The solver pieces together this complex puzzle while strictly respecting everyone's preferences, which is crucial for retaining them. It also incorporates legal rules specific to short-term contracts to protect you from compliance risks.
