We publish news, projects and listings from the same system in which we keep the records. The content team works in a single interface with the administration — news, projects, intellectual property, library.

A link with outside software and services without entering the same data twice. The platform connects to the services typically used in cultural institutions.

  • 1C

    exchange of accounting data and export of financial indicators.

  • Excel and CSV

    bulk import of participants, rooms and schedules.

  • Email and SMS

    notification mailings to participants and tenants.

How it works in practice

  • Setting up the institution

    The administrator creates the institution and describes the address, the rooms, the opening hours and the gallery.

  • Launching studios and clubs

    Disciplines, teachers and class schedules are set up and online enrolment opens for participants.

  • Planning events

    Listed events and hire requests for halls are created. The calendar checks availability and prevents conflicts.

  • Working with visitors

    Enrolments and bookings land in the CRM, feedback is handled by the team, mailings and notifications go out.

  • Analysis and reporting

    The system gathers data on attendance, studio load and financial results to support decisions.
