Every seat has a right price. Most are sold at the wrong one.

Tesserlint is building AI that prices live events the way demand actually moves, so fans stop paying resellers and venues stop playing to empty rows.

Two ways to get a price wrong

Too cheap

Tickets sell out in minutes, then reappear far above face value. The fan pays more and the artist sees none of it.

Too dear

Seats priced for opening night stay empty on a Tuesday. The show goes on to half a room.

How pricing in the moment works

What we're working on

We're early, and we'd rather say so. These are the problems we're starting with:

Demand forecasting
Reading signals like search, sales pace, and resale listings to see where demand is heading before it gets there.
Pricing guidance for organisers
Recommendations that update as the event approaches, with the organiser always in control.
Fairer resale
Ways to keep the value of a sold-out show with the people who made it.

A tessera was a small token that let you into a Roman theatre. Lint is what programmers call a tool that finds what's wrong before it ships. Tesserlint does that for ticket prices. About the name
