Which sources does it support? Discoverability is a huge problem for smaller events, as most get posted on IG, and it’s hard to even find them through IG.
I started relying on a mix of Muse/ChatGPT/Gemini depended on which data sources I want to combine, as they all seem to have special deals with different sources.
This is pretty cool, does it scrape Instagram? A lot of events where I live (Toronto) are posted there and not many other places. It's a real problem if you don't want to spend time on that app.
Personally, I don't have a project that requires it right now, but aspirationally maybe! I agree with another commenter that mentioned this is basically a public service that should exist similar to Wikidata / Musicbrainz.
I know this is currently a paid service you're trying to make happen and the scraping part is a reasonable amount of effort, but if you wanted to make the data source public, you could publish community.lexicon.calendar.event ATProto records and it would be very cool. At the very least, you could ingest it as a data source!

at the moment, there is a fan out across social media accts from a few different platforms, relying mostly on co-posting to discover new accounts.
any particular events that you'd flag that I could do some eval against?

amongst a few other data sources :) is this something you'd use if we added toronto support?

x2 for Toronto.
There's hundreds of events happening every week but finding them takes a lot of time.
queuing this up!
This feels hard to maintain and keep up-to-date, but I would definitely use it! Great idea.
If an agent maintains it, is it hard? :D
I don’t want to be that guy, but why do I need a middleman for something llm do out of the box?
Forget the API. Even search engines have returned these results for years.
I can potentially see an angle with SLMs integrating with a self hosted version of this API, but it’s a bit niche.
Cool idea and I really like the design of the landing page.
thanks!
Solving this issue a core problem for humanity, and it goes hand in hand with the need for a public service.
I'm actually working to do this at ultra low cost as a public service like Wikipedia or musicbrainz.
I'll be publishing global costs to serve and letting people donate to support.
please share!
Two unrelated monks working on the same thing? What are the odds
events apis and green chartreuse
super slick! got results quickly and am getting more interesting and in the know kind of events than other tools
tysm! are there any geos you would like to see?
