About Venue Pulse

Venue Pulse is part of Blackbox Holdings, a tech incubator building software to disrupt legacy industries.

Our Mission

Live music venues are struggling. Rising costs, post-pandemic recovery, and expensive software are squeezing margins for the small clubs and theaters that are the backbone of our music culture.

We believe venue software shouldn't be another burden. That's why Venue Pulse is completely free for venues—no monthly fees, no transaction costs, no hidden charges.

By removing software costs from the equation, we help venues keep more money for artist guarantees, staff wages, and keeping the lights on. We make money from premium features for artists and bookers, not by charging struggling venues.
