Ticket Booking
Run a paid workshop without giving up a cut of every ticket to a platform fee.
Full ticketing platforms charged per-ticket fees that ate into margins on small workshops and consulting sessions.
A public deployment is available to try.
Case Study
Before
Workshops, consulting sessions, and events needed a simple booking system. Full ticketing platforms like Eventbrite charged per-ticket fees that ate into margins for low-cost events.
After
Eliminated per-ticket platform fees for self-hosted events. The built-in QR check-in system provides a professional event experience without third-party ticketing costs.
How it's solved
Built a lightweight booking system with event creation, time slot selection, seat capacity management, and confirmation emails. Supports QR code tickets and a check-in dashboard for event day.
Trade-offs
No waitlist handling — once a slot is full, there's no automatic queue for cancellations.
