👋 Hey Product Hunt, glad to be in your crosshairs today. I'm Scott, one of the cofounders of Spotlight. As students at USC, we realized how angry people get when comparing ticket prices across multiple websites before getting hit by hidden service fees. That's why we built Spotlight, the 'Honey for events tickets'. Spotlight is as much about our users as we are about our partners -- ticket platforms like SeatGeek. That's why we're actively forming meaningful partnerships to ensure win-win solutions for both fans and sellers. In a world of asymmetric information, there's no strong-enough reason to not be given the chance to compare across the exact same product sold by someone else at checkout. For now it's events, but we imagine a future where every niche market will have a 'Spotlight for X'. Let's build that future together starting with Spotlight 🚀🚀

Looks good, curious as to how you guys make money to sustain your server costs? Surely there's no such thing as a free lunch

@jonathan_chow2 Excellent question, we're partnering with the ticket platforms who are glad to give us a small cut of the ticket sale for increased traffic to their site. In fact, we already have written partnerships with SeatGeek, StubHub, and TickPick to ensure the financial and technical sustainability of our product. Ticket sales are a zero sum game but web traffic is not. We're pushing for increased traffic sharing through collaboration across all our partners, ensuring a win-win solution for both ticket buyers & sellers ✅

I thought most events were hosted by a single ticketing system and therefore no opportunity to hunt for discounts. Am I wrong? Curious how common it is to find cheaper ticket prices, @spotlightxyz.

@rrhoover You're absolutely right, which is why, when it comes to concerts (differently for sports events), we are resale-only. You can buy a retail ticket straight off Ticketmaster, but the resale market is definitely not something that should be underlooked. And this is validated by our data, which shows we do in fact find cheaper tickets. Also we're not finding discounts, but rather competitive tickets (better seat, cheaper price) from other websites. Hope that answered your question!
Ryan Hoover
@spotlightxyz great point re: the resale market. I didn't think of that.
Spotlight sounds like an awesome idea - no more frustration comparing ticket prices across different websites! Love that you're forming partnerships for win-win solutions. Exciting to see what the future holds for Spotlight!
