Writing about Showout? Here's the short version, the facts, and how to reach a human.

The one-paragraph version

Showout is a complete calendar of everything happening in Seattle — concerts, art, comedy, food, festivals, and the long tail of events that never get promoted. Software reads hundreds of public sources daily and assembles them into one verified, deduplicated calendar; humans set the editorial standards. It's free to use, supported by a few local businesses, with a strict no-pay-to-play policy.

Facts

• What: A city events calendar aiming for completeness — every public event, one place.
• Where: Seattle, with more cities planned.
• Who: Built and run by a very small independent team in Seattle (it started as one person tired of missing great shows).
• Business model: Free for users; supported by local business sponsors. Placement on the calendar cannot be bought.
• Name: "Showout," one word, capital S.
