Chats before the booking

The first place work moves.

DM someone, create a trusted group, check who is free and share ready-made events straight into the conversation. Event chats keep the details together until the job is done.

Event chats are temporary rooms for the brief, updates and practical details.
  • It starts with a message

    Send a DM, open a group chat or bring trusted people together before a booking is formal.

  • Group chats for availability

    Ask who is free, talk through the brief and share a ready event into the chat.

  • Bigger networks

    Join wider circles so you can meet people beyond your existing contacts.

  • Event chats

    Timed group chats keep one event together, then clear down when the job is done.

  • Practical details stay attached

    Location, food, fuel, arrival notes, calls, video, meetings and voice notes sit beside the event.

Networks

Community groups for the work around the work.

Open Networks from Chats when the conversation is bigger than one booking or group chat. Create or join spaces for regions, creative roles, kit advice, recommendations, polls and wider professional circles.

  • Not another booking chat

    Use group chats for active work and Networks for the wider discussion around the work.

  • Start useful topics

    Ask about kit, venues, rates, travel, availability or recommendations without interrupting a live job.

  • Wider professional reach

    Keep your Blubook close, then use Networks to meet trusted people across your region or scene.

How work moves

From enquiry to paid handoff.

Create an event or check availability, share it with trusted people, accept the right creative and keep contract, deposit, final payment and fees attached.
