Pick your way in
You do not have to take the whole platform. Start with the product you need, and add others when you want them.
- A streaming app, a church or a league starts with Streams. Keep your login, take payment your own way, and call Vabu to grant access. The quickstart takes about twenty minutes.
- An events company starts with Events and ticketing, and adds Fanbases and Messaging as the audience grows.
Read ways to use Vabu OS for how your own login and payments fit in.
How they work together
Every product feeds the same loop. A ticket sale earns points. A check-in earns more. A message brings people back. Streams add an audience that is not in the room. See how the products work together for a hybrid event, from the first ticket to the replay.
Still on the way
Some pieces of these products are still on the way, such as promoter programs and payment reporting for your own checkout. They are listed in What's coming, and each product page links there for its own gaps.
Calling the products
Platform pieces such as keys, customers, access and streams work with test keys. Most other product routes work with a signed-in user and live credentials today. Keys and scopes shows which credentials each family takes.
