About
Comedy rooms deserved a place of their own
Canada runs thousands of comedy nights a month, and most are invisible — promoted in stories that vanish and group chats you're not in. We're fixing the shelf, not the shows.
The problem
The funniest nights are the hardest to find
Ticketing platforms only list shows that sell tickets through them. Social feeds only show rooms you already follow. The result: open mics, PWYC nights and indie showcases — most of Canadian comedy — effectively don't exist online.
The problem
Most of Canadian comedy is invisible online
Free rooms do not sell tickets, so ticketing sites never see them. Social feeds only surface accounts you already follow. Thousands of nights a month, effectively unfindable.
What we believe
Three principles we won't trade
We never sell tickets
Discovery and ticketing pull in opposite directions. The moment we take a cut, we start hiding free rooms. So we don’t.
Free means free
Free for audiences, free for hosts, forever. The scene grows the app; the app serves the scene.
Bilingual by default
Canadian comedy happens in two languages. English and French are equals in the app, not a toggle buried in settings.
Where we are
National from day one
Coverage isn't a city-by-city rollout — any host anywhere in Canada can list a room the day we launch.
