The Problem

Live music booking is broken

Both sides of the stage lose time, money, and trust to an outdated, fragmented process.

For Venues

  • Empty nights cost you money. Last-minute cancellations leave your stage dark and your bar quiet.
  • Finding reliable, quality acts is time-consuming and relies on word of mouth.
  • No-shows, payment disputes, and verbal agreements that protect nobody.

For Artists

  • Getting gigs is a grind. Cold-calling venues, sending demos into the void, waiting for callbacks that never come.
  • Chasing payments after the gig. No deposit system, no paper trail, no leverage.
  • No contracts, no protection. One bad venue can cost you equipment, time, and reputation.

The Solution

Everything you need in one platform

GigXchange connects artists and venues with smart matching, secure payments, digital contracts, and built-in messaging.

Smart Matching

AI-powered recommendations based on genre, location, budget, and availability. Find your perfect match in seconds, not weeks.

Secure Payments

Stripe-powered deposits held in escrow. Funds release automatically after the gig. No more chasing invoices or disputed fees.

Digital Contracts

Auto-generated, e-signed contracts for every booking. Legally binding terms agreed before a note is played.

Built-in Messaging

Negotiate terms, share riders, confirm details -- all in one thread linked to the booking. No scattered emails or DMs.
