After completing several tours around the UK & Europe, I was fed up of how difficult it can be to keep on top of everything that touring entails, and how expensive (or crap) TM software was.
So I built Laminate - a browser based tour management solution that helps you manage everything a tour entails. Including:
- Advancing
- Guest Lists
- Merchandise
- Travel (routing, drives, ferries, flights, pick-ups)
- Hotel bookings
- Financials
All in one simple to use web app - that still works offline and resyncs when you get signal back.
Send private links to venues for them to fill out your advance and view your spec, rider and assets. You can also send private temporary links to merch sellers so they can track your sales for you right in the app. Merch sales also automatically feed into your financials, where each show gets a P&L which automatically feeds into a tour P&L.
My favourite feature is probably the one tap link into Google Maps from the driver page, add all your stops and routing in the app, driver just has to press one thing to get the route up! It's gonna make my life so much easier, and thought it would be a shame not share with the world of touring acts.
There's a free tier, single one-time payment for a short tour, or a pro plan if you're out all the time or are a professional TM. I've tried to keep the pricing as reasonable as possible, £29 for a single tour or £99 for the yearly license.
It's still new - so I'm keen to give full early access to the right people who want to use it on tour!
