Event planners struggled to reach their target audience effectively, often relying on costly advertising and manual outreach.

AI agents offer a streamlined, personalized, and efficient approach to event discovery. They provide several key benefits:
- Increased Event Attendance: By providing relevant recommendations, AI agents drive higher attendance rates for events.

Traditional vs Agentic event discovery
Traditionally, finding events involved a lot of manual searching and guesswork. You'd browse multiple websites, scroll through social media, and ask friends for recommendations, hoping to stumble upon something interesting. This was time-consuming and often led to missing out on hidden gems.
With an AI-powered City Event Guide, the process is transformed. The agent proactively curates events based on your preferences, delivering personalized recommendations directly to you. Instead of searching, you're presented with options tailored to your interests, saving you time and ensuring you never miss out on exciting opportunities. The agent also learns from your feedback, continuously refining its recommendations to become even more accurate over time. This shift from reactive searching to proactive discovery makes event planning effortless and enjoyable.
