## Why event teams choose Ticket Fairy

Why do event teams take their call notes on Ticket Fairy instead of Fathom or Fireflies?

Event teams use AI note-takers on advance calls, production meetings, supplier quotes and sponsor renewals. Fai, Ticket Fairy's AI teammate, takes the notes on those calls and keeps them on the event they were about. Her notes go through the call topic by topic, list the key numbers and dates said and give every follow-up an owner and a date. When a call sets a deadline, she suggests a task for your team to approve.

### Only on Ticket Fairy

- **Files each call under its event** Each call you send the notetaker to is kept under its event, with its summary, follow-ups and notes [5](#source-5)
- **Tickets and the event in the same system** Your call notes sit on the same event as your ticket sales, artist contracts, advancing and suppliers [6](#source-6)

- Fai's notes to share go through what was discussed on the call topic by topic, with the open questions, so anyone who missed the call can catch up.[7](#source-7)
- Fai's notes list the key numbers and dates mentioned on the call, so a fee, a deposit or a load-in time is written down as it was said.[7](#source-7)
- Each follow-up agreed on the call shows who took it on and by when.[5](#source-5)
- When a call sets a deadline, such as the final rider by Friday, Fai suggests a task for it on the event's Today page for your team to approve.[7](#source-7)
- Every advance call, production meeting and security briefing the notetaker joins is kept under its event, so your team can see what was agreed weeks later.[7](#source-7)
