Where our speakers have taken the stage
Getting booked isn't luck. It's the result of the right pitch reaching the right stage. The speakers who fill their calendar do it smarter.
The speaking industry is massive and growing. We scout thousands of conferences and events to surface the stages worth your time, so you spend your hours pitching, not hunting.

Three ways Stages turns your expertise into
You spent a lifetime earning what you know. Here is how that becomes bookings: the right stages find you, the right rooms learn your name, and you always know exactly what you are worth.
The right stages find you
Stages watches conferences, podcasts, and summits, then brings you the ones that fit your topics, your fee, and your calendar. Every listing labeled honestly.
Be the name they already know
The organizers you want are asking AI who to book. Stages shows you where you stand today, and the specific moves to become the authority on your topic.
Name your number without flinching
Fee benchmarks show what stages like yours actually pay, so you walk into every negotiation from knowledge instead of a guess.
A directory lists you.
Stages gets you booked.
Every feature was built to replace a painful, manual workaround speakers have been living with for years.
Without Stages
With Stages
OPPORTUNITY DISCOVERY
Without Stages
Manually search dozens of sites, hoping something relevant shows up before the deadline.
With Stages
AI discovery finds and matches opportunities to your expertise, scored 0-100 for fit, every listing labeled paid, expenses-covered, or unpaid.
APPLYING
Without Stages
Write each pitch from scratch. Spend hours personalizing for every event.
With Stages
A pitch drafted for the specific event and applied on your behalf by email and browser. Nothing sends without your OK.
AI VISIBILITY
Without Stages
When someone asks AI for an expert on your topic, it names someone else, and you would never know.
With Stages
Stages measures whether search and AI answers name you for your topics, and hands you the specific moves to fix it when they do not.
KNOWING YOUR WORTH
Without Stages
Guess a fee and hope. Every negotiation starts blind.
With Stages
Fee benchmarks show what comparable stages actually pay, before you answer the “what’s your rate?” email.
SPEAKER PROFILE
Without Stages
A static PDF one-sheet you re-export by hand, plus a LinkedIn bio organizers rarely search.
With Stages
A living profile organizers can read: a self-updating media kit, a shareable speaker card, and verified reviews.
PIPELINE TRACKING
Without Stages
Spreadsheets and sticky notes to track which pitches are out, pending, or ghosted.
With Stages
End-to-end pipeline from discovery to booked: every submission and reply tracked in one place, with pipeline value.
ORGANIZER ACCESS
Without Stages
Luck and personal connections. Discovery is entirely word-of-mouth.
With Stages
Organizers search by topic, compare speakers, and book directly. No platform fee.
Pricing
One plan. Everything in it.
No tiers, no locked features. Cancel anytime.

FAQs
Got questions?
We got answers
How does Stages find matching opportunities?
Stages indexes conferences, corporate events, podcasts, and summits, then scores each one 0-100 against your profile based on your topics, expertise, and preferences. Only high-fit opportunities surface in your feed.
What is auto-submit?
Auto-submit is your AI agent that applies to speaking opportunities on your behalf. It crafts personalized pitches and submits them via email and browser form filling, up to 30 per month. You can review before sending or let it run automatically.
How much does Stages cost?
Stages Pro is $197/mo, or $1,997/yr (save $367 a year), with a 14-day free trial. Founding members lock in $1,182/yr, 50% off the annual equivalent, for as long as they stay. All features are included: opportunity discovery, auto-submit, AI & search visibility, fee benchmarks, pipeline tracking, and more. No hidden fees, no tiers.
What kinds of speaking opportunities are included?
Conferences, corporate keynotes, workshops, podcasts, association events, panels, summits, and media appearances. Every listing is labeled honestly: paid, expenses-covered, or unpaid. That way you never waste an hour on a stage that is not worth it. Filter by format, audience size, fee range, and more.
How is Stages different from a speaking bureau?
No commission, no gatekeeping. Bureaus take 20-30% and only promote speakers they represent. Stages charges a flat subscription. When a stage pays you, you keep every dollar. That is it.
Do I have to build my profile from scratch?
No. Paste your LinkedIn or website and Stages drafts your full speaker profile (bio, topics, talks, and press) in about a minute. You approve every word. From then on your media kit, speaker card, and public page update themselves, so you never re-export a PDF again.
How do I know if AI tools recommend me?
Search is shifting to AI answers, and the expert who gets named wins the booking before anyone runs a traditional search. Stages measures where you stand across search and AI answers for your topics, and gives you the specific moves to strengthen it: keywords, content, mentions, and footprint. We show you where you stand and what to do about it; we do not promise a placement.
How do organizers find me?
Event organizers search this database by topic, compare speakers, and build shortlists. A complete profile means you come up when they do, and your profile is built so both Google and AI assistants can actually read it, so you show up beyond the platform too.
Do I need to be an established speaker to join?
No. Stages is built for working experts (operators, authors, consultants) with real expertise and a thin speaking résumé. The profile bootstrap, fee benchmarks, and guided next steps exist precisely so you can compete without an agent or a famous name.

is already out there.
Stages finds it, scores it, and applies for you, so you spend your time on stages, not spreadsheets.
