Where Beats Meet Bytes
We’re building the digital twin of music festivals.
We’re building the digital twin of music festivals.
Live events run on chaosAt a large music festival, teams providing water, power, waste, access and logistics services need to work together across an extensive site. Temporary staff often don’t know the site or one another. With updates spread across radios, messaging groups and spreadsheets, managers have to piece together who has accepted a job, how it is progressing and whether it is done.
Global live-music ticket revenue: €34 billion (model estimate). Large-festival scale: 300+ hectares, 4,000+ staff across 100+ service providers and up to six weeks of setup.
Information gets lost between radio and Whatsapp groups.
Managers must chase who owns each task and whether it is done.
Temporary staff don’t know the site, so finding locations wastes time.
Illustrative model assumption: 20% staff inefficiency. Reputation and liability add potential exposure; savings are not yet measured.
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.
Issue-linked conversations keep messages, responsibility and handling history together. Cross-trade orchestration is planned for 2027.
Site maps connect issues, positions and available staff locations. Turn-by-turn navigation is planned.
Live issue views, assignment, maps and post-event analysis. Broader producer oversight and sensor integration are planned.

CheckMade Mission-Control (CMC) — the desktop workspace for setup, oversight and analysis. A broader producer overview is planned for 2027.
Lower risk. Higher confidence.Designed to reduce chasing, wasted journeys and separate reporting; customer savings remain to be measured.
The pilot made it clear: CheckMade bundles and channels information quickly. Our efficiency increased, with less time spent on calls and journeys across the vast festival site.

“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.”
