Hey everyone!
I'm an artist myself so this product is very personal for me. We obviously want to make it much easier to find the dopest intimate local (music, dance, theatre, visual arts, and comedy) events that are overshadowed by your typical Live Nation & Ticketmaster events. But there's a bigger mission that we're focused on.
Growing up, artists are typically nudged to pursue other careers and “get a real job” - mainly because of the stereotype (and high probability) of becoming a starving artist. This probably happened to some of you as well, just like it happened to me.
As technology has advanced, there's been virtually no focus on providing artists with modern tools to make a living. But with Staj, we're creating a digital infrastructure to help local artists and organizers thrive. Our goal is kill this 'starving artist' narrative - Staj will be the tool that lets future generations recognize that being an artist is just as important as being a doctor or a lawyer, because artists are essential workers.
Congratz on the launch! Definitely feels like a problem to be solved. Only suggestion would be to aim for a bit of a more modern look. There are great visual component libraries like nextui that will help you achieve this 🙏
