Metric-based Entertainment Rating & Insight Tracker

Atlanta comedy booking is broken. Clubs book the same 30–40 comics week after week. The same political favors. The same manual texting. MERIT replaces all of it — shared infrastructure that rewards performance and gives everyone a better deal.

Three clubs & several showrunners already on board — launching soon

Built for both sides of the stage

Clubs and comics both win when booking runs on data instead of gut feel

Clubs & Showrunners
Infrastructure that works while you focus on the show
  • Book a full show in 15 minutes
    The system sends SMS offers, collects YES/NO replies, and confirms the lineup automatically. No more two-hour text sessions.
  • Access the full Atlanta talent pool
    Stop booking the same 30–40 comics. MERIT gives every participating club access to 200+ working Atlanta comedians with verified performance histories across multiple venues.
  • Fresh lineups, returning customers
    Rotating deeper talent means guests who come back monthly aren't seeing the same faces. New comics mean new followers in your seats.
  • Cross-venue accountability
    No-shows, chronic light-runners, consistent bombers — all documented across every participating club. Stop getting burned by someone else's problem.
  • Your pay rates, your rules
    Configure your own pay grid by grade, day of week, and show type. Set defaults and override per booking. MERIT is infrastructure — not a franchise.
  • Complete audit trail
    Every offer, confirmation, set, and payment is logged. No more disputes about what was agreed. MERIT's built-in payment system processes everything automatically.
  • Automatic reminders, zero effort
    Confirmation texts, promo messages, and 4-hour show-day reminders go out automatically. Showrunners walk in prepared — not scrambling.
Comics
Get discovered. Get booked. Get paid.
  • One registration, every club
    Sign up once via a simple form — no account, no password. You're immediately visible to every participating Atlanta club. No more cold-calling bookers.
  • Booking by text — just say YES
    Offers come straight to your phone. Just click YES or NO — that's the whole thing. No apps, no portals, no callbacks. Confirmation and show details follow automatically. And you'll get offers from clubs you've never performed at before.
  • Performance builds your record
    Every set you do builds a verified performance history across multiple venues. Your track record travels with you — not stuck in one booker's memory.
  • Multi-venue visibility means more offers
    When you do a great set at one club, every other participating club knows it. A strong night anywhere in Atlanta works in your favor everywhere.
  • Submit video to build your case
    Can't get on a MERIT-affiliated show yet? Submit a performance video — a bar show, road set, open mic — and let the footage speak for itself.
  • Fair evaluation, not just favorites
    No single booker decides your fate. MERIT aggregates performance data from multiple sources across multiple venues. Your skills get noticed even if you don't know the right people.
  • Get paid on time, every time
    MERIT has a built-in payment system. No chasing checks, no awkward cash conversations. You get paid faster and more reliably than anywhere else in the scene.
