small venues having live music or a local dj is playing they're either paying high fees that are getting passed along to their customers or you know they're covering those fees both are not good for a small business so you know we're able to decrease those prices for them and then really provide an end-to-end service we bring in the users because the tickets right there on the app it's very easy uh to not only use that ticket but then also now you see everything you see your city come alive and you see it breathing

You find something on the map, you find something in your city, you show up and you just have a good time.

Yeah, so Chartered, we post live local events on a map based on your location in real time.

Then we blend social media so that you can find your friends, find communities, and connect, you know, and engage more with those communities in real time.

The goal here is, yeah, kind of, it's a two-sided platform.

So on one side, we're serving the average user.

They can find things in their own city when they're traveling.

You know, a lot of things that you wouldn't normally know existed.

And we're really serving the kind of

underutilized events in terms of the small businesses yeah you know a lot of people don't know that karaoke or a small venue is having live music or a local dj is playing so those kind of things you know they're either paying high fees that are getting passed along to their customers

or they're covering those fees.

Both are not good for a small business.

So we're able to decrease those prices for them and then really provide an end-to-end service where they get promotion, analytics, and everything on top of the ability to sell tickets beforehand.

So I was actually in college, University of Maryland.

I was in Greek life and had made a very kind of simple version of the app.

It was just a kind of population heat map of the campus.

You could see the bars and parties that were crowded, photos there.

And, you know, it did its thing at the time, but, you know, never really blew up.

And...

Several years went by, Cam and I got to know each other, and we started talking about it a little more, and we said, if we take the angle more from the business event side, there's a lot more value here.
