About MCDC

MCDC makes it easy to coordinate performers, time slots, and event logistics. It works over iMessage and SMS. Messages are short and practical, focused on lineup management. MCDC helps organizers manage signups, balance different act types, and keep events running smoothly — consent‑first and within the community you invite.

Community spirit: the more performers text in with preferences and availability, the better MCDC can optimize the lineup.

MCDC is a passion project from the founders of Kognova.ai, an AI consultancy and boutique contract shop. We're interested in using AI to bring people together and reduce friction to real‑world creative gatherings.

  • Quick signups and slot coordination
  • Tech needs and timing reminders
  • Simple, consent‑first messaging (opt‑in/opt‑out)
Note: MCDC is for event coordination only. It is not a channel for emergencies.

Build your lineup, manage time slots

Performers share their act type, length, and time preferences. MCDC proposes time slots, helps balance the lineup, and highlights any gaps to fill.

Request

Performers share preferences like "5min spoken word, 8–9pm window." MCDC surfaces available slots without overcommitting.

Confirm

Small, consent‑first loops: "8:45 works" is enough. You can always request another slot if needed.

Perform

Once settled, MCDC shares a concise lineup, your slot time, and tech requirements (e.g., mic, music backing).

Safety first: perform only in venues you trust, follow local rules and venue policies, and verify event details independently. You are responsible for your own safety.

For organizers

  • Share one number — no apps to install
  • See the full lineup at a glance
  • Balance act types and timing automatically

For performers

  • Sign up by text, like any other chat
  • Get reminders about your slot and tech needs
  • Text STOP to opt out anytime
