A data-driven concert ticket platform.

• What is the problem We are attempting to solve?
  • Scalpers are exploiting online ticket buying —> prices are marked up, general ticket buying experience deteriorates due to bots and inflated demand, artists no longer have control over their own concert prices.
• What are the current solutions to this problem?
  • TicketMaster - Verified Fan Tickets- advertising official ticket resale on their platform as a more reasonable and easier monitored alternative.
  • This doesn't mitigate the issue of reselling at exorbitant markups.
• What is our proposed solution/offering?
  • Streamlining the ticket-buying process through a guaranteed ticket system based on user’s listening data - easing access for fans to see their favorite artists live.
• How is your solution more efficient than the current state (or what is proprietary)?
  • VerifiedFan/VerifiedTickets is an unreliable defense against the epidemic of bots, and still perpetuates exclusionary resale culture - power dynamic still not in the hands of artists and fans
• How does one implement your solution (or what is the execution plan)
  • Simplistic web app as a vehicle for ticket distribution
    • Pulling listening data and top items per user via Spotify API
    • Display upcoming events, which fans can reserve, and listening data determines their spot in the ticket queue
      • no ambiguity in terms of chances of securing a ticket
