Verified live-audience intelligence
Prove the crowd. Grow the business.
Ci is the proof layer for live music and events. It connects attributable promotion, permission-based attendance verification, promoter performance, and privacy-conscious analytics in one system, so artists, promoters, venues, and sponsors can see who actually showed up, and why.
Digital attention is abundant. Verified participation is scarce.
A click is not an arrival. An RSVP is not attendance. A follower is not a fan in the room. Ci is built to close that gap and turn turnout into proof the industry can act on.
One verified loop
Every show runs the same path, from the first invitation to the decision it informs.
- Invitation
- Attribution
- Attendance
- Verification
- Proof

Built for the whole room
Artists, promoters, fans, venues, and sponsors do not buy the same thing. Ci gives each a distinct reason to trust the same verified graph.
Artists and managers
A portable record of real audience support: verified attendance, repeat behavior, promoter contribution, and market strength. Proof for venue pitches, EPKs, routing, and guarantees.
Learn more →Promoters
Turn informal influence into measurable, portable performance. Verified attendees generated, conversion, and repeat turnout, so real pull outranks empty link-blasting.
Learn more →Venues and operators
Who actually came, why, how long they stayed, and which artists bring them back. A concise morning-after report after every event.
Learn more →Sponsors and brands
Sponsorship as an accountable outcome, not a reach estimate. Fund verified attendance and qualifying behavior, then measure it.
Learn more →Four pillars, one graph
Ci is four connected capabilities operating on a single verified participation graph.
Ci Verify
Confirms that a qualifying live-event outcome occurred, with progressive confidence from QR check-in through staff scans, ticket matches, and combined evidence.
Ci Promote
Makes promotion attributable. Any contributor, from openers to street teams to regulars, is measured by the verified attendance they actually generate.
Ci Insights
Converts verified attendance and attribution into decision support for artists, venues, and promoters, with clearly labeled data.
Ci Partners
A privacy-conscious integration and aggregate-intelligence layer for ticketing platforms, venue groups, festivals, labels, and agencies.
Why you should believe the number
Ci reports on turnout, which is exactly the kind of number the industry has learned to discount. The answer is the mechanism, and it is the same one on every surface.
Confidence is progressive and stated
A self-directed QR check-in establishes an arrival. A staff scan or a matched ticket raises it. Qualifying dwell and combined evidence raise it further. Each record says which level it reached instead of presenting one flat number.
Every outcome retains its evidence
Source, timestamp, and confidence are kept alongside each verified outcome, so a figure that gets challenged can be shown rather than defended.
Labeled, not laundered
Verified counts and estimated totals are reported as separate lines. Ci does not fold an estimate into a verified figure to make a headline look better.
Consent-based, not surveillance
The record is built from a scan a fan chooses to make, with aggregate reporting and suppression thresholds on top. Attribution is the product; access to individual fan movement is not.
The full evidence ladder is written out on verified attendance.
Common questions
What is Ci?
Ci is a verified participation layer for live music, events, and nightlife. It records who was invited, who arrived, what evidence confirmed the arrival, and whether they came back, then reports that to artists, promoters, venues, and sponsors as one connected record.
Who is Ci for?
Artists and managers who need to prove their draw, promoters who want credit for the turnout they produce, venues that need to know who came and why, and sponsors who fund campaigns and want confirmed arrivals rather than estimated reach.
How does a fan check in to a show?
A fan scans a QR code at the event, which takes a few seconds and does not require a ticket. Staff scans, matched tickets, and dwell signals can raise the confidence of that record afterwards, but the fan does one thing.
Is Ci a ticketing platform?
No. Ticketing records a purchase, which can happen weeks before the show and does not confirm that anyone arrived. Ci records the arrival itself and what caused it, and can use a matched ticket as one source of evidence among several.
How much does Ci cost?
Pricing depends on how an artist, venue, promoter, or sponsor uses Ci, and sponsored campaigns are funded separately from platform use. Contact the Ci team at holt@celebintel.com to discuss which surfaces apply to you.
Who actually showed up, and why?
That question is the wedge. The larger opportunity is the system the music industry uses to decide what happens next.
- Step 1
Pick the surface that matches how you use live shows: artist, promoter, venue, or sponsor.
- Step 2
Artists and promoters start in the portal directly. Venues and sponsors start with a conversation, because setup has to fit the door and the campaign.
- Step 3
Run one show through the loop, then read the record it produced: who arrived, what confirmed it, and who brought them.
