SLEEPER MARKETS · POWERED BY QLOO
Find the cities where your sound already resonates.
An AI tour agent that finds where your audience already is — and where big tours don’t go.
Snapshot of a recorded run (Qloo data, Oct 2026). Qloo’s data updates, so a live run can show different taste percentages.

Other tools say taste beats population. We pre-registered it, replicated it, and sealed 204 predictions — check the hash.
- 28 of 44 held-out artists matched better than “just play the biggest cities” at 8 stops (the 44 of 66 where the two plans differed; pre-registered)
- 204 artists’ next-tour predictions sealed by SHA-256 before we read any 2027 tour
- 0 of 246 tracked big tours stopped in Duluth in 2024–26
For tours of 6 stops or fewer the biggest cities still win, and the app tells you.

1. Identify your artist
How it works
- Map your audience with Qloo
- Rank cities the way that matched real tours: 70% Qloo taste, 30% city size
- Check which picks hold up: evidence, stability and the biggest-cities plan side by side
- Get venues, a route and pitches
Stand-up comedian? Plan a comedy tour the same way: choose “Stand-up comedy” or tell the agent. It is a taste map; the ranking was tested on music tours only.
Why Qloo?The Qloo difference, measured
We compared rankings with the US cities 162 artists actually played on their 2024–25 tours (Wikipedia), tuning on one group of artists and scoring once on 66 we held out. For 8 stops, 74% of the tour-tested picks were cities they played, against 70% for the biggest cities and 57% for a ranking by Qloo taste alone (each the share of an artist’s 8 picks they played, averaged over the 66 held-out artists). For 6 stops or fewer, the biggest cities did better, and the app says so. A second pre-registered test on 42 new artists’ 2026 tours confirmed the pattern (64% vs 58% at 8 stops). It measures agreement with past booking decisions, not ticket sales. See the proof, artist by artist.
A generic AI can also suggest familiar cities: build a plan to compare its picks and yours against the same Qloo audience map.
