More events, less effort with CitySpark’s AI-workflow tools

Audiences are seeking out local event content from publishers — but sourcing, curating and creating content can be time-consuming — often preventing publishers from getting to it. CitySpark has just added several new AI-powered tools on top of its hyper-local event data, making creating compelling content easier than ever.

The AI-workflow tools turn editorial busy work into turnkey revenue-generating content that is unique to your publication and your audience. Highlights include:

• Nuanced calendar curation
  • Set your preferences and it does the rest
• Custom event descriptions in your voice
  • Automated descriptions for every event matching your chosen voice and instructions (length, inclusions, etc.)
  • Can be used for newsletters, print, etc.
• Schedule the system to select, draft and send weekend events picks to editorial staff to review before weekend plans are made

Your events busy work: the hunt for events, writing the descriptions, formatting the print edition, delegated to your new automation in just a few clicks.
