About

Event Conflict Finder is the tool every promoter, booker, venue manager, and artist wishes existed yesterday. Enter any city → instantly see every upcoming concert on an interactive map with live data from Ticketmaster and Bandsintown. The app automatically flags scheduling conflicts: same-venue double-bookings, events <0.5 km apart, overlapping times (with custom buffer), and cross-platform duplicates. Conflicts are color-coded by severity so you can spot disasters (red) vs minor risks (yellow) in seconds. Built for speed and scale: Redis caching (85–90% hit rate), smart rate-limiting + request queuing so the APIs never get banned even with hundreds of simultaneous users. Freemium model: 3 free searches, then unlimited plan (Polar + Supabase). Phase 1 is fully open-source and already saving real shows.
