SeatGeek also offers consumers an event discovery tool through its Columbus event calendar and Spotify applications, which take into account user preferences and favorite teams and artists in order to generate recommendations of upcoming local events that match a user’s tastes and preferences.

SeatGeek was launched by Jack Groetzinger and Russell D’Souza in 2009 and its operations are headquartered in New York, United States.
