A HeadBox alternative that writes to the venues
HeadBox is a UK-led venue marketplace with a platform for businesses and AI-picked options. Eventier is an assistant for any event: it finds venues, writes to them once you approve, chases the quiet ones and lays the answers side by side.
Pick HeadBox if
- You book venues for a company team and want billing in one place
- Your event is in London or another city HeadBox covers
- You want options picked for you to browse and compare
Pick Eventier if
- Your event is personal, or somewhere HeadBox doesn’t cover
- You want the enquiries written, sent and chased for you
- You want a price you know before you start
Side by side
| What | HeadBox | Eventier |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | A venue marketplace and a platform for businesses | An assistant that finds venues for your event and does the enquiries for you |
| Where | UK-led: London, New York, Sydney, Singapore, and Australia and New Zealand | Anywhere it can find venues on the web. Its own list is deepest in Perth; elsewhere it searches venues’ websites live, which takes a few minutes |
| Finding venues | AI-picked options for your event | A shortlist for your event and a top three, each fact linked to the page it came from |
| Who writes to the venues | Not mentioned on their site | Eventier, under your name from an Eventier address of your own, after you approve each email |
| Comparing | They say you can compare options side by side | Read from each reply and laid side by side: the date, the quote, what’s included, what they need from you |
| Cost to you | Not mentioned on their site | Free to find venues and write the emails. A$11.99 to send an event’s enquiries, or A$39.99 a year for every event |
| Who pays the business | Free for venues to list; what planners pay isn’t on their site | You. Venues can’t pay to appear or rank |

The same event, both ways
With HeadBox
- Describe your event
- Look through the options picked for you
- Compare them side by side
- Book, with billing for your team in one place
With Eventier
- Say the event in one message
- Approve the emails Eventier writes to each venue you pick
- Get an email when a venue replies
- Pick from the answers, side by side
Where Eventier falls short
- HeadBox is built for company teams, with billing in one place. Eventier has no team accounts or central billing.
- Sending isn’t free: an Event Pass is A$11.99 for an event, or Eventier Pro A$39.99 a year.
- Its own venue list is deepest in Perth. Elsewhere it searches venues’ websites live, so a search takes a few minutes, and it has been tested most on Australian events.
- It never books or takes payment: the contract and the deposit are between you and the venue.
- It writes emails. It doesn’t phone venues.
Questions
Is HeadBox only for companies?
Its site describes a marketplace and a platform for businesses. It doesn’t say what planners pay.
Can I use Eventier for a work event?
Yes. Any event that needs a room: work events, birthdays, launches, reunions.
Does Eventier send anything without asking?
No. Every enquiry and reply waits for you to approve it. Follow-ups wait too, unless you turn on automatic follow-ups.
Try it on your event.
Tell Eventier what you’re planning. It finds the venues that fit and writes to them once you say yes.
