FAQ
What kinds of events do you handle?
Workshops, conferences, summer schools, fancy dinner parties, and more. Got something unusual? Even better. We love a good challenge: see a few play out.
Where do you operate?
Anywhere in the US, Canada, or Europe. If we've served your city before, your plan starts instantly; if we haven't, our AI maps the local venues and vendors in minutes, not months. Language isn't a barrier either: we deal with vendors in their own language.
What does GatherMind cost?
You pay your event's actual costs (venue, caterer, crew) plus our fee, around 10%. We quote the fee up front and cap it: no surprise bills. For grant-funded events, our invoices are itemized so they clear your funder's audit. Early access spots are limited, so send a request now.
How does money work?
We collect the quotes, you pick. Nothing is booked or paid without your approval. We pay the everyday costs and forward you the receipts. Big contracts, like the venue, stay in your name: we negotiate and prepare them, then you sign and pay the vendor directly. You can ask where the budget stands at any time.
What decisions do you make without me?
Small stuff, we just handle: calls, emails, quote collection, and everyday purchases under a spending limit you set at kickoff. Everything bigger (bookings, contracts, payments) is prepared completely and waits for your click. You can change the limit anytime, and every action we take is in your event log.
Can I use my own vendors?
Absolutely. Got a favorite caterer or a venue you trust? Send us their contact info and we'll make the arrangements directly.
Is a human involved?
Yes. A human is on call 24/7. They handle emergencies in the background, and if you need to talk to a real person, just ask in chat and one takes over.
What if my event gets cancelled?
Storms, strikes, emergencies: things happen. If the event needs to be cancelled, we contact every vendor and chase every refundable deposit. If you'd rather reschedule, we rebook everything for the new date.
What about insurance?
Yes. We collect quotes from event insurers, fill out the paperwork, and put the finished policy in front of you. One signature and you're covered. Optional, added at cost.
