Wedding days, product launches, summer parties, AGMs. The stakes are personal, the reputational cost is real — and you have three suppliers to vet by Friday. ARTATVA collapses that into a single brief, one shortlist, one signed contract, with a backup already in reserve.

Eight hours,
per booking,
that nobody sees.
60–70% of UK event buyers still source entertainment through Instagram, WhatsApp and personal referral. No contract. No compliance. No backup. The cost isn’t the booking fee — it’s the eight hours of coordinator time, the cancellation risk, and the audit that can’t be passed.
Manual coordination, research, vetting, negotiation
Six weeks of coordinator time, lost to sourcing
Six minutes. Per booking.
Beautiful bookings.
Built-in proof.
Every ARTATVA booking ships with the artefacts your procurement or finance team asks for — before they ask. You get the show. They get the file.
Under five minutes, brief to confirmed
Skip the 'I'll get back to you' loop. Our matching engine returns a ranked three-artist shortlist within minutes, each with a live availability window and compliance bundle attached.
DBS + PLI verified, never footnoted
Every profile carries a live Enhanced DBS certificate via uCheck and £2m to £5m PLI proof. Procurement-grade from the first booking.
Backup artist pre-assigned
Two to three pre-qualified replacement artists are identified at the point of booking — not after a cancellation. Proactive, not reactive.
Signed before funds move
Digital contracts auto-generated with cancellation, IP, safeguarding and payment clauses. Both sides e-sign. Stripe escrow holds until delivery.
Describe it in plain English
‘Eighty guests, jazz trio, ceremony 3pm, Leeds, £1,500’. The matching engine factors vibe, venue, audience profile, compliance and budget — before an artist sees your wallet.
Every booking in one place
Brief history, shortlists, bookings, contracts, invoices, audit exports — one workspace for your whole team, with optional approval workflows.
Five things every buyer needs.
None of them are “choice”.
Reliability under pressure
Events cannot fail. A cancellation causes immediate reputational and financial damage.
Speed and simplicity
Sourcing and confirming must happen quickly. Eight hours per booking is industry normal — it shouldn't be.
Compliance and documentation
Proof of vetting, insurance and safeguarding where required. For institutional buyers this is a legal obligation.
Repeatability
Multiple events per year need a system — saved preferences, templates, consolidated invoicing.
Cost efficiency
ARTATVA's 20% commission undercuts agency rates of 30 to 40% — saving £100 to £400 per booking, compounding across the year.
Four steps. One signed event.

Less to the platform.
More to the art.
Traditional agencies take 30–40% of every booking. ARTATVA takes 20% at Standard tier, 15% at Pro (£199/month for 10+ bookings per quarter), and 12–18% for institutional Enterprise. The artist gets paid properly. You pay less. Everyone wins except the middlemen.
