How they differ
gigmit is a booking marketplace that connects artists with promoters and venues. Free members get an artist page and can apply to a limited selection of gigs. PRO opens up all opportunities, automated applications, a festival and venue database, an email tool and fan analytics. It's a big, established network, and PRO is priced in euros on a minimum term that renews automatically.
StageOS is built for DJs and live artists and starts free with no card. Your EPK (bio, mixes, videos, photos, technical rider, rates and availability) sits at one link, your gigs appear in what's on for your city, and you can find festivals open for applications and apply from StageOS. Paid plans add more applications and promoter pitches, with no contract. Members can also be added to StageOS playlists.
