Eventably is redefining event ticketing through AI, accessibility, and transparent pricing— unlocking untapped revenue and trust in the growing concert/event/conference industry. According to the CDC, over 61 million Americans with disabilities control $504 billion in annual spending power.
Inclusion Isn't Just The Right Thing - Globally, it's a $118B Growth Strategy
252 million annual attendees represent 84% of Americans attending at least one event per year. Now imagine what happens when we unlock the 27% of the market currently excluded due to accessibility barriers. This isn't just market share capture - it's market expansion.

Legacy platforms exclude 27% of the population by design, while event organizers juggle 5+ fragmented tools for ticketing, management, marketing, analytics, and accessibility. That inefficiency costs organizers $500–$1,500/month in tech bloat while leaving billions in revenue on the table.
Eventably changes that.
Why others can’t follow us:
This is the “curb cut effect” in action: inclusive design that benefits everyone while expanding access and loyalty. With Eventably, we don’t just fix event tech—we build a category-defining platform that serves the full spectrum of attendees and captures long-ignored growth.
Eventably presents investors with a compelling growth trajectory built on capturing increasing market share in the $21 billion events industry. The company's transparent pricing model—"$1 plus 3%"—eliminates the barriers that prevent customers from adopting legacy platforms, creating a path from $2 million annual recurring revenue (ARR) in 2026 to $21 million ARR in ticket sales alone by 2030 through systematic market share capture and total addressable market expansion.
Year 1 (2026): Market Entry and Immediate Profitability
Investors can expect Eventably to achieve $2 million ARR with immediate cash-flow positivity, demonstrating strong unit economics and market validation among accessibility-focused early adopters. This early profitability provides downside protection while positioning the company for rapid market share capture without requiring additional capital beyond the initial investment.
Year 2 (2027): Scaling Customer Acquisition
Eventably reaches $4 million ARR, doubling revenue through expanded customer acquisition and market penetration. This growth validates the company's ability to scale its customer base while maintaining profitable unit economics, benefiting from organic referrals that reduce customer acquisition costs.
Year 3 (2028): Market Inflection and Enterprise Adoption
The jump to $7 million ARR represents a critical inflection point where early market positioning drives broader industry adoption. This 75% year-over-year growth demonstrates successful transition from accessibility-focused early adopters to enterprise clients who recognize the competitive advantages of transparent pricing and overall customer benefits of accessibility.
Year 5 (2030): Market Leadership Through Scale
Eventably achieves $21 million ARR though only ticket sales, representing nearly 3x growth from Year 3 and positioning the company as a significant industry player. At this scale, network effects accelerate growth as event organizers choose Eventably because attendees are already familiar with the platform and recognize it as superior to competitors.
For users with accessibility needs, we provide what other platforms don’t: detailed venue information with accessibility data, intuitive navigation for assistive tech, and clear, transparent pricing at checkout. No guesswork. No surprises.
For organizers, our platform offers flat fees (not revenue shares), built-in accessibility compliance, and operational tools that cut management time and costs. We also unlock a new revenue stream — by enabling organizers to reach and serve a massive audience that traditional platforms exclude. This isn’t just better tech — it’s a smarter model built to scale on both sides of the marketplace.
For investors, this is a rare opportunity to invest in a scalable SaaS model with regulatory tailwinds, defensible product differentiation, and a growing market that legacy platforms are structurally unequipped to serve.
A consumer-grade front end, redesigned for a broader audience.
Eventably’s discovery experience offers modern usability with accessibility-first functionality. Attendees can search by category, price, and date — just like they expect — but with additional filtering for accessibility features and support needs. It’s clean, beautiful, and built for everyone. For organizers, it’s a frictionless way to reach audiences others overlook. For investors, it’s a scalable gateway to a growing, loyal user base — one that legacy platforms have failed to serve.
Make accessibility a feature — not an afterthought.
Unlike any other platform on the market, Eventably surfaces venue accessibility information directly within the platform: door widths, ramps, accessible seating, bathroom access, and masking policies. This transparency empowers millions of underserved users — while removing the uncertainty that often prevents them from attending in the first place. It also reduces support tickets and manual event inquiries for organizers. As regulation grows and demand for inclusive experiences rises, our built-in accessibility engine becomes a competitive moat and a moral advantage.
Give organizers the data they need — without the learning curve.
Eventably’s unified dashboard delivers real-time visibility into ticket sales, revenue performance, attendee activity, and category-specific trends. Designed with clarity and action in mind, this dashboard surfaces insights that drive decisions: which event types are resonating, how ticket sales pace over time, and how revenue stacks across channels. Whether the organizer is a solo creator or a major venue operator, they can manage performance without a data analyst. Scalable reporting. Enterprise-ready. Zero complexity.
Eventably is a cloud-native, AI-optimized platform built to serve the 43 million Americans excluded by traditional ticketing systems—while delivering a seamless, modern experience for everyone else.
Our machine learning engine drives real outcomes:
This isn’t just data reporting—it’s technology that drives retention and conversion.
We’ve built Eventably to plug into real-world operations, not compete with them.
This makes Eventably more versatile than “walled garden” platforms—and more scalable.
Unlike our competitors, we don’t rely on hidden fees or retrofits. Our defensibility lies in:
We’re turning underserved demand into scalable, sustainable revenue.
Eventably's security and accessibility standards aren't static—they're living systems that evolve daily. Our platform undergoes continuous monitoring and proactive improvements to stay ahead of emerging threats, changing accessibility requirements, and evolving user needs.
Real-Time Security Monitoring
Continuous threat detection and automated response systems monitor every transaction in real-time. When potential issues are detected, our systems respond immediately while implementing permanent solutions.
Proactive Accessibility Testing
Daily automated testing across multiple assistive technologies, plus weekly manual testing by users with disabilities. When new standards emerge, we update proactively rather than reactively.
Dynamic Venue Intelligence
Continuous verification of venue accessibility features, seating configurations, and capacity through direct partnerships and on-site inspections. When venues change, our platform reflects updates immediately.
The Vigilance Advantage
While competitors respond to problems after they occur, Eventably prevents them through continuous monitoring. This proactive approach maintains the trust that drives customer loyalty while ensuring compliance with evolving standards before they become mandatory.
Eventably's commitment to continuous vigilance ensures trust is never compromised. Our platform doesn't just meet today's standards—it anticipates tomorrow's requirements, creating sustainable competitive advantages while ensuring every user can participate in events with confidence.
Eventably is launching with momentum. After demonstrating the MVP and its tech-stack, top conferences, government agencies, and enterprise customers have already signed on. This early traction proves that the market is ready—and waiting—for a ticketing platform built on AI, access, and transparency.
Eventably's growth strategy begins with early adopters who prioritize accessibility—like independent planners and nonprofits—and scales into high-volume, high-impact sectors. From government agencies to enterprise clients, our platform meets the diverse needs of organizers who must serve everyone, and do it well.
The Numbers Tell Our Story
Our Year 5 projections show a clear path to $31.9 million in total annual recurring revenue.
Diversified Revenue Streams, Unified Vision
Our revenue model reflects the diversity of the events industry itself. With $21.0 million in ticket sales revenue representing 65.9% of our total ARR, we've proven that eliminating barriers doesn't mean sacrificing profitability—it means expanding the market for everyone.
Beyond Tickets: The $10.9M Opportunity
Our "Other Revenue" streams represent 34.1% of total ARR, demonstrating the platform effects that emerge when you build trust with event organizers. This $10.9 million includes:
From Early Adopters to Market Leaders
Starting with accessibility-focused early adopters—nonprofits, government agencies, and educational institutions—we will build credibility that attracts higher-volume enterprise clients.
This strategic approach creates a powerful validation cycle: small but vocal early adopter segments prove our accessibility features work, generating the testimonials and case studies that convince larger, higher-revenue segments to adopt our platform. While Government/Educational events represent only $0.4M (1.7%) of our ticket revenue, their rigorous accessibility requirements and public visibility create the trust foundation that enables us to capture the industry's most lucrative segments.
Performing Arts: leads our portfolio at $4.7 million (22.5%), demonstrating the massive appetite for accessible cultural experiences. From Broadway shows to local theater productions, our platform ensures that every seat can be filled, regardless of a patron's accessibility needs or payment preferences.
Trade Shows: follow closely at $4.5 million (21.6%), capturing the B2B events market where our transparent pricing model has become a competitive advantage. When event organizers can predict their costs without worrying about surprise fees, they choose us.
Sporting Events: generate $3.4 million (16.3%), proving that fans will pay for convenience and accessibility. Our platform doesn't just sell tickets—it sells peace of mind.
The remaining segments—Live Entertainment ($3.0M), Conferences ($2.7M), GA Admissions ($2.3M), and Government/Educational events ($0.4M)—showcase our platform's versatility across every corner of the events ecosystem.
