WHAT THEY CANNOT DO

The gaps no talent buying tool fills

Prism handles deals and holds. Eventbrite handles tickets. But running a venue or festival requires production, POS, settlement automation, marketing, CRM, and portals that neither platform offers.

  • Production & Run of Show. They Don't Have It

    Prism has zero production tools. Eventbrite has zero production tools. Calisto gives you a drag-and-drop Run of Show timeline with minute-level scheduling, crew management with role-based call sheets, rider tracking for hospitality and technical riders, equipment checkout with returns, and BEO generation for catering. All connected to the same event, the same settlement, the same contacts. Run of Show with minute-level drag-and-drop timeline. Crew rostering with automated call sheet generation. Hospitality and technical rider management. Equipment tracking with checkout and return workflow.

  • On-Site POS. Not a Separate System

    With Prism, you need Square or Toast for bar and merch sales. Those systems don't talk to your settlement. With Calisto, POS revenue from bar tabs, kitchen orders, merchandise, and concessions flows directly into the show settlement in real-time. No manual reconciliation. No separate login. Kitchen display system routes orders to the right station automatically. Bar, kitchen, merch, and concession POS in one system. Revenue flows directly into settlement, no manual entry. Kitchen display system for real-time order routing. Tab management with split, transfer, and close.

  • Automated Settlement. Not a Spreadsheet

    Prism has a settlement worksheet. But it doesn't connect to your ticketing, your POS, or your accounting system. Calisto's settlement engine tracks 7 revenue streams and 14 expense categories automatically. Co-promoter splits calculate with visual P&L preview. Advance deductions apply. Merch splits compute. Multi-currency handles international tours. One click pushes to QuickBooks or Xero. 7 revenue streams tracked from POS and ticketing automatically. 14 expense categories with budget vs. actuals. Co-promoter splits with visual P&L preview. One-click sync to QuickBooks, Xero, Alegra, ContaAzul.

Choose your processor. Not theirs.

Prism.fm has no payment processing. Eventbrite forces you onto Eventbrite Payment Processing. Calisto connects to 73 payment gateways across 11 global regions. Your merchant account. Your rates. Zero lock-in.
