Where Beats Meet Bytes

We're building the digital twin of music festivals.

€34 BillionGlobal Live Music Market

Live events run on chaos

300+ hectare sites. 4,000+ staff across 100+ service providers. Set-up taking up to 6 weeks. And behind the scenes? WhatsApp groups, overloaded radios, and zero visibility.

Communication Breakdown

Radio and WhatsApp create unstructured, stressful silos. Critical information gets lost between trades.

No Task Management

No clear responsibility assignment. No evaluations. No controlling. Excel lists and paper tickets at best.

No Navigation

Staff mostly unfamiliar with location. Wasteful escorting of individuals across vast festival sites via radio.

€2.5M

Average cost of information chaos per festival

~20% staff inefficiency on personnel costs, plus reputational and liability exposure — per large live-event.

One platform. Every trade. Real time.

CheckMade is the smart vertical SaaS solution that replaces fragmented analog workflows with a single, map-based operations hub.

"I've accompanied CheckMade from the very beginning. Their technical foundations — automated testing, clean architecture, infrastructure-as-code — lay the groundwork for a sound engineering process. In my career running technical due diligence for VCs and PEs, this is ahead of many startups and even the majority of established SMEs. They are well positioned for reliable, scalable operations as they grow."
