232 active artists · 37 cities · 10 states. 145 healthcare-arts events delivered in Q1 2026 — about 1.5 per day. $56,017 paid directly to working artists in the same quarter, for 550 hours of bedside performance.
All numbers verified from production. We own the code, the data, and the workflows. There is no vendor between us and what we report to you.
A community health partner who hosts our events. A working artist whose paychecks come through the platform. One of our own staff members whose day used to be spreadsheets.
Same three questions each. What did this look like before. What does it look like now. One specific moment where it made a real difference. 90 seconds each.
Phase 1 — Intake. Request → pre-flight → approve. The middle one (approve) is the only required human checkpoint in the chain. Responsible-AI design: the agent does the work, the team owns the decision.
Phase 2 — Booking. Match → confirm → remind → execute. Roster matcher with availability + fairness, contract + scheduling threaded into one flow, mobile capture on-site.
Phase 3 — Wrap. Survey → payroll. Approved attendance flows into pay batch; staff cuts the artist's check from the same record. Single source of truth.
Four real items from our backlog — things our partners, artists, and staff have asked for this quarter. Pick one. The platform plans, builds, reviews, and deploys it to staging while we keep talking.
Plan agent decomposes the task. Builder writes the code. Reviewer checks it against our standards. Deployer ships it. No human in this loop — pipelines are tested ahead of time so we know they're safe.

Twenty-five years ago, two Juilliard sopranos chose to share music after the worst day this city had ever seen. Today, Sing for Hope still does — at scale, with the rigor that institutional settings require. Thank you for being part of how we got here.
