Features & roadmap

Platypus is honestly MVP: what's listed as built is genuinely live; what isn't, isn't dressed up to look finished.

Built today

For audiences

  • Public event pages under the venue's address — listing, detail pages, no account needed
  • Ticket checkout on the event page (or embedded in the venue's site), paying the venue's own Stripe account
  • Tickets emailed as a PDF with QR codes; cancelled events show the reason plainly

For venues

  • Event management — single or multi-date events, rich descriptions, images, drafts, private (unlisted, password-protectable) events
  • Ticket types with pricing, surcharges, capacity, and per-order limits; capacity enforced at checkout
  • Box-office tools — issue tickets manually (including comps), printable door sheets, PDF re-downloads
  • Mailing list with double opt-in, tags, campaigns, and a member discount
  • Contact form, custom mail provider, appearance theming and custom CSS
  • Website embedding — iframe event cards and listing, plus a read-only JSON API

On the roadmap

  • Hosted Stripe onboarding (Stripe Connect) — click-through payment setup instead of pasting API keys, and refunds from inside the Platypus admin
  • QR check-in at the door — scan tickets on a phone, see who's arrived
  • Venue self-service sign-up — see Sign-ups

Roadmap items ship when they're ready; nothing above is a promise with a date on it.
