Are you losing group bookings because people don’t want to call your venue?

Callers are often already sold on your venue anyway.

The people you’re missing fall into 4 key moments. It’s where venues lose group bookings without ever knowing it…

  1. Moment 1

    They’re at work.

    The person planning the team outing is in back-to-back meetings and has to multitask. Gather lets her plan the outing while she’s on calls.

  2. Moment 2

    They’re window shopping.

    They have five tabs open and no interest in a sales pitch. Gather answers every question and makes your offer at the right moment.

  3. Moment 3

    Your planner is busy.

    And no one wants to be on hold, leave a voicemail or wait for a callback. Gather gives you 24/7 coverage.

  4. Moment 4

    You’re closed.

    One analysis found 38% of small-business website chats arrive after hours. Gather answers at 9:47pm, and your team gets a warm lead at 9am.

Live demo

Go beyond lead gen forms and chatbots.

They rarely get the interaction you want anyway.

Give window shoppers a 24/7 concierge who knows your packages, prices and policies by heart, and watch cold browsers become booked groups.

We’re accepting 10 Atlanta businesses to join our Pilot Program, where we build, train and launch your concierge at no cost to you.

All we ask is if you’re happy with the service to leave a testimonial.

If your business depends on group ticket sales, Gather can help you book more…

Not another chatbot

Most chatbots just answer questions. Yours will book groups.

Who wants to “chat now”? No one. The biggest problem with self serve chat is getting visitors interested in using it.

Our concierge is written by a human who is focused on the customer experience the same way your in-person party planner is.

Only with Gather

Get in front of groups at the exact moment they’re deciding where to go.

On the consumer side, Gather helps people gather more and plan less. They use it to invite their friends, vote on a date and pick a place.

That’s the moment that matters. Not later, when someone is idly searching “things to do” on Google, ChatGPT or Claude. Right then, while the plan is being made and the group hasn’t chosen a place yet.

As a Gather Venue, that’s where you show up. Gather’s Venue Recommendations match each planner with venues that fit the plan they’re making. Your website can’t do that, and neither can any other AI concierge.

The 24/7 Concierge Pilot Program

Here’s everything 10 founding Atlanta venues get, free for 90 days.

We build your concierge, train it on your venue and put it to work on your website around the clock. You see every lead it warms up.

    It knows every package, price, add-on and rule, from ages and minimums to deposits and cancellation policies. As we measure results*, we further train and make improvements to your concierge.

    * Direct ROLLER API integration coming soon for real time availability.

    It answers questions, recommends a package and makes only approved offers, day or night. Gather takes 0% commissions on sales during the 90 day pilot. We’ll discuss your typical referral fee prior to pilot to ensure we’re a fit.

Frequently asked questions

What does this cost?

Nothing for 90 days. The $500 setup fee is waived, there’s no card on file and Gather takes 0% commission during the pilot. We want to prove it works before you pay anything. All we ask is a testimonial if you’re happy.

What happens at day 90?

You choose. Keep going at the $49/mo founding rate, locked for as long as you stay, plus a commission on the bookings we send you. Or walk away and owe nothing.

Is there a contract or a card on file?

No. There’s a one-page pilot agreement that spells out what we’ll do, and nothing to pay during the pilot.

Can I leave early?

Yes. Send one email and we turn your concierge off. We recommend the full 90 days so there’s enough data to hit the goals we set together.

Do I control what it says?

Yes. You approve its answers to your top 20 questions before launch, and it only makes offers you’ve approved.

Who owns the leads?

You do. Every lead, conversation and report is yours, even if you leave.

Where do the handoffs go?

Email, text or both. You choose before launch.

Does it book through my booking system?

Not yet. You still take the booking and deposit the way you do today. We’re building a connection to ROLLER, and pilot venues get it first at no extra cost.

How much time does it take my team?

About 5 hours over the 90 days. You share your packages and policies, approve the answers and join a check-in every two weeks.

Do customers have to download an app?

No. The concierge lives on your website, and invitations and RSVPs open in any browser.

What kinds of venues is this for?

Any business that depends on group ticket sales: escape rooms, breweries, bowling, axe throwing, cooking classes, private dining, play spaces, golf and entertainment venues.
