Roadmap

Where VenueIQ is going

We’re building this in the open. Here’s exactly what’s shipped, what’s being built right now, what’s queued, and what we’re still thinking about. Updated regularly.

Shipped this quarter
Live in production today.

Four-pillar prediction engine

Artist Fit, Market Demand, Reputation, Venue Health — combined into a single confidence score with deal recommendation.

Genre-neutral scoring

Hip hop, country, comedy, DJ, tribute — all scored equally. No genre is the default.

Radio/media format scoring

38 radio formats matched to artist genre with confidence multiplier and proxy logic for tribute/cover acts.

Seasonal & geographic intelligence

Cottage country, dark months, ski resorts, tourism destinations, wine country — applied per venue per week.

Risk flags before you sign

Every prediction surfaces venue red flags in plain English — IATSE union crews, AGCO casino supplier paperwork, PAC programmer workflows, capacity outside your sweet spot, deal-types that don't match your preferences. You walk into every negotiation knowing exactly what to ask.

Audience intelligence per venue

Patron community signals — francophone, retirement-heavy, post-secondary, faith community, casino regular — surfaced on every prediction. Genre fit alone doesn't book a show; audience fit does.

Honest uncertainty

Predictions are labelled provisional or confirmed depending on how much real data is behind them. Insufficient data shows as "insufficient data" — never an invented score. Read the confidence before you read the number.

Show status management (Draft → Settled)

Status workflow, smart offer button, status changer, archived view.

Custom-branded offer letters

In-browser editor, logo upload, version-stamped PDF export, print-friendly CSS.

Inline-editable offer-letter clauses (per show)

Click any clause — cancellation, force majeure, rider, radius and more — and edit it directly on the offer. Edits save per-show and reload next visit.

Offer letter auto-save

Edits you make to an offer letter save automatically and stay there next time you open the show.

Settlement workflow

Capture actual attendance, gross, payout. Reconciles against forecast.

Deal Calculator (Sell + Promote)

Two booking modes, sub-contracted/venue-charge tech staff modelling, ticketing fees, break-even, backend split scenarios.

Add-your-own cost lines in the Calculator

Add custom-labelled cost rows under Travel, Other Costs and Tech Staff so unusual line items don't need a workaround.

Backend split as a P&L

Net to Artist shows the guaranteed amount only. Backend split is broken out as conditional Split Potential — so you never confuse "if everything goes right" with "what you actually take home".

Per-card HST controls

Toggle HST individually on rental, tech staff, ticketing fees, venue marketing and ticket sales — informational, never deducted from net.

Role-based summary headlines

Promoters see "Show Gross" front and centre; artist managers see "Artist Net" — same data, different lens depending on your role.

Canadian venue database

~1,400 active venues with capacity, address, photos, ratings, marketing-support flags.

"Near Me" geolocation filter

Server-proxied reverse geocoding with IP fallback. Works even when the browser denies geo.

viQ — your AI booking assistant (24/7)

Chat-based help reading predictions, structuring deals, and navigating the platform. Trained on VenueIQ's deal logic and Canadian touring nuances.

Site-wide mobile + readability pass

Predict, Shows, Tours, Settings, Dashboard, Pricing and Homepage all reflow cleanly on phone, tablet and desktop.

Stripe billing + customer portal

Self-serve checkout for Pro, plus a billing portal for managing your subscription, payment method and invoices.

Branded account emails

Signup, password reset, magic-link and team-invite emails sent in VenueIQ branding instead of a default template.

Pricing, Compare and Roadmap pages

Public pricing, side-by-side plan comparison, and the page you’re reading now.

In progress
Actively being built. Days to weeks out.

Per-role contract templates

Different deal types deserve different paperwork: Performance Contract for venue buys, Talent Buyout for promoter-bought shows, Co-Promotion for revenue splits, Venue Rental for self-promoted dates.

On-Sale Date on the contract

A dedicated on-sale field on every show that flows straight onto the offer letter and contract — so the public ticket-launch date is locked in writing.

Your own analytics dashboard

A page that turns your settled shows into accuracy stats and trends — so the predictions you've actually run start improving the engine for you.

Prediction history

Every prediction you run gets saved automatically. Look back at past runs, compare to actuals, and watch the engine get better over time.

Tours — distance, map and routing

A map view of your tour stops with drive-time and distance between dates, plus suggestions for tighter routing.

Planned next
Designed and queued. Weeks to a month out.

Artist standing scores

Each artist gets four platform-wide scores — Overall, Reputation, Momentum and Professionalism — populated from prediction history, settlement performance and external signals. Today they show as "Coming Soon"; they go live once the prediction history layer ships.

Verified Artist Program

Artists and bands can apply to be verified. Approved acts get a verified badge in search results and on their profile.

Live Canadian demographics

Real-time Statistics Canada data behind every market — age, income and community mix — feeding into Market Demand instead of guesses.

Chartmetric integration

Streaming growth and social momentum from Chartmetric layered into the Reputation and Market Demand pillars.

Shareable prediction reports

Send a clean, branded report link to clients, agents or partners — no login needed on their end. Agency tier.

Per-account default clause overrides

Set your own cancellation, force majeure, rider, radius and other clauses once in Settings, and every new offer starts with your text — no per-show re-editing.

CSV exports & reports

Export your shows, settlements and predictions to spreadsheet for accounting, board reports or your own analysis.

Under consideration
Research and design phase. Timing TBD — partly driven by user feedback.

College & university influence

A live database of Canadian post-secondary schools layered into Market Demand for college-town venues — student population matters for ticket sales.

Retirement community influence

Mapping retirement communities by market — historically a strong indicator for tribute, legacy and matinee-friendly bookings.

Tourism & destination intelligence

Per-venue tourism flags, peak months and seasonal population swings — so a 2,000-person town that triples in summer is scored accordingly.

Live ticket sales sync

Connect your Eventbrite, Showpass or Ticketscene account so VenueIQ shows real-time sales numbers on every show — no manual entry. Larger platforms like Ticketmaster require a partnership and may not be supported.

Shazam & Apple Music integration

Where an artist gets discovered, and how they chart regionally. Both APIs are still in research — neither is live yet.

White-label exports

Offer letters, settlements and prediction reports rebranded in your agency or management company’s identity. Agency tier.

Multi-seat accounts

Add teammates with their own logins and per-user permissions — built for agencies and management companies sharing one roster. Agency tier.

Sign in with Google

One-click sign-in plus optional Google Calendar sync for confirmed shows and Drive export for offer letters and settlements.

Not-for-profit venue program

Verified NFP venues get free Pro access on a renewable 1-year contract in exchange for periodic feedback.

International expansion

Built to flip on additional markets once Canadian feature parity is locked. Near-term targets: US, Australia + New Zealand, UK + Ireland.
