hi.events

Opportunity Summary

Hi.Events is an event management and ticketing platform designed as an alternative to services like Eventbrite. It allows organizers to sell tickets for various event types, including nightclubs, concerts, and festivals. The platform emphasizes low transaction fees, instant payouts, and full ownership of attendee data. A key differentiator is its deployment flexibility, offering both a managed cloud service and a self-hosted option for free. This allows organizers to maintain custom branding and control over their infrastructure. The service focuses on reducing the overhead costs and data dependency typically associated with large third-party ticketing aggregators.
