Routed

Tour where your fans already are.

Name an artist. An agent reads Qloo's taste graph to find the cities where their fans over-index, the rooms those fans go to and the openers they share, then routes the dates and drafts a pitch for every venue.

About a minute. No sign-up.

How a route is made

  1. Find where the fans over-index

    Qloo's heatmap shows where Zach Bryan fans are denser than the taste of the place would predict. That is rarely the list of biggest cities.

    2. Los Angeles
    3. Toronto
    4. Chicago

    2. Knoxville 100
    3. Mobile 100
    4. Oklahoma City 100
    5. Tulsa 100
    6. Calgary 100
  2. Pick the rooms and openers

    For each city the agent asks Qloo which music venues these fans already go to, and which smaller artists share the audience. In Oklahoma City:

    • The Criterion91
    • ACM@UCO Live Room89
    • Tower Theatre89

    Opener: Charley Crockett

  3. Route and date it by rule

    The shortest drive from Tulsa, no two shows within 150 km, at most 8 hours behind the wheel on a show day, a day off after five in a row.

    • 03/06 Tulsa0 km
    • 03/07 Oklahoma City189 km
    • 03/08 Lubbock539 km
    • 03/09 Austin642 km
    • 03/10 Fort Worth332 km
  4. Pitch every room, checked

    Nemotron drafts a hold request from each stop's evidence. Every figure in it is checked against that evidence; anything that isn't there is struck out.

    I'm writing to hold Sunday, March 7 for Zach Bryan at The Criterion in Oklahoma City. The city ranks 4th of 411 in the region for Zach Bryan fan affinity at a perfect 100 score, and the venue scores 91 with his audience.

    The Criterion holds 4,000, per eventticketscenter.com.

The same model, without Qloo

Every tour runs twice. Before the agent looks anything up, the same model routes the same shows from what it already knows, and both tours are scored on the artist's own Qloo evidence.
