Lineups are portfolios.
Traditional festival promoters book greedy acts for ego and acquire the identical demographic thrice. Crowdfolio solves budget-constrained submodular coverage over Qloo's 250M-entity taste graph—maximizing distinct marginal reach per dollar while capping cannibalization.
Why Qloo is Load-Bearing
Without Qloo's high-dimensional cultural embeddings, promoters optimize solely for isolated vanity metrics (Spotify monthly listeners). Crowdfolio computes cross-genre covariance to maximize true distinct attendance.
250M-Entity Affinity Graph
Calculates cosine vector distances across 50-neighbor affinity projections. Eliminates acts whose tasteOverlap exceeds 35%.
Hyperlocal Market Geo-Weights
Injects regional draw indices (Austin Metro core vs national stream counts), giving priority to regional anchors like Black Pumas (0.94).
Popularity Talent Cost Proxy
Calibrates live booking fees via Qloo popularity deciles. Yields exact cost-per-unique-reach (CPUR) rather than crude headcounts.
Grounded Attribution Receipts
Returns mathematical receipts proving why each slot was selected, cross-cannibalization score, and marginal fan addition per dollar spent.
