Pools is a memberships platform for event organizers

Pools makes it easy for art, music, and other cultural communities to build memberships around their events. Inspired by the same methodology that museums have used to grow support, the platform leverages the checkout of tickets sales to upsell attendees into a membership with automated discounts, advance access, or members-only benefits.

As reported in public records reported — not modeled.

Solid bars are reported offering amounts reported; hatched bars are the modeled post-money valuation est. — both on one shared scale so you can read raise-vs-worth at each round directly. Use the toggles to overlay data labels and the niche-peer / market average value lines.

No round amounts on record to chart.

No staged rounds to sequence.

Round size and date are reported; the stage label is inferred from round size. Valuation is modeled from stage benchmarks. Directional, not a quoted figure.

Not enough modeled valuation points to chart a trajectory.

Benchmarked against 8525 companies in this sector. Each bar is a median (the middle company, not an average — outliers don't skew it). Two yardsticks: real money raised (reported on Form D) and modeled value (our estimate est.). These are whole-sector medians across all stages, except the per-stage row.

Raised more than 96% of sector peers (real $). Modeled value above 96% of peers (estimate).

Stage is inferred from round size est., not reported on the filing — a round's dollar size maps to a bucket: Pre-Seed <$1.0M · Seed $1.0M–$4.0M · Series A $4.0M–$15M · Series B $15M–$40M · Series C $40M–$100M · Series D+ $100M–$400M · Growth/Late >$400M.

Predictive signals are modeled est. from this company's own cadence and step-up, plus sector benchmarks — directional, not advice. Peer set and a CSV export live in your analyst workspace.
