# Crowdify

> Crowdify is an Australian event platform where events are crowdfunded before they happen. Hosts create events, set a funding goal, and attendees pledge by purchasing tickets. If the goal is met, the event runs and the host gets paid out. If not, everyone is refunded automatically. Zero risk for both sides.

## Core Concept

Crowdify solves the chicken-and-egg problem of event planning: hosts need committed attendees before investing in a venue, and attendees need confidence the event will happen before buying tickets. Crowdfunding bridges this gap — events only proceed when enough people commit.

## Platform Features

### Events
- Hosts create events with a funding goal (minimum ticket sales required)
- Attendees purchase tickets to pledge support
- If the goal is reached by the funding deadline, the event is confirmed and the host receives a payout
- If the goal is not met, all ticket holders are automatically refunded
- Events can be free or paid, public or private
- Hosts earn a trust score based on their track record

### Communities
- Users can create and join communities around shared interests
- Community admins can run events exclusively for their members
- Communities have their own feeds, discussions, and direct messaging

### Marketplace
- A directory of event vendors: venues, caterers, photographers, DJs, decorators, and more
- Vendors create profiles with services, pricing, gallery images, and availability
- Event hosts can browse and book vendors directly through the platform

### Trust System
- Hosts earn a trust score based on successful events, attendance rates, refund history, and account verification
- Three public tiers: New Host, Trusted Host, and Top Host
- A verified badge appears next to Trusted and Top hosts
- The trust score is transparent and visible on the host's profile
