Plan events
Date, venue, crew demand — and see who's still available.
Coming Soon · Beta in progress
Runner office in one platform — in one place.
We're building the tool event agencies actually need: events, runners, vehicles and trips without paper chaos and WhatsApp group hopping. Currently in closed beta on staging.runner-base.com — we're handing out the first founder seats right now.
- Sensitive data encrypted (pgcrypto)
- Roles, RBAC & audit log
- EU hosting in Germany
What's coming
A growing suite — from request to billing.
Modules that fit together: events, runners, trips, live dispatch and analytics. Here are the building blocks already running in the beta.
Manage runners
Master data, availability and documents. SSN/IBAN encrypted via pgcrypto.
Self-service onboarding
Onboarding link via email, WhatsApp or QR — the crew fills in the form themselves.
Vehicles at a glance
Every car on one page, with reminders for inspection and service.
Trips with route & ETA
Address in — route, distance and ETA come back automatically.
Up to 10 runners per trip
1 lead + 9 support per trip, each with their own vehicle. Avatar stack in lists.
Drag-and-drop dispatch
Drop runners onto the day's plan; conflicts are flagged instantly.
Live dispatch & shifts
Check runners in and out during the event, log breaks — hours roll up live.
Venues & addresses
Event locations + directions PDFs. 82 train stations and airports in AT+DE pre-loaded.
Clients & bandcare
Customers + bandcare contact (e.g. tour manager) with one-tap call/WhatsApp.
Briefing as a link
Private link with trips, suggested departure and “Start route” — no app required.
Stage shuttle
Dedicated area for festival stage shuttles with its own role and a /s/… public link.
Notification centre
Badge on the profile avatar for onboarding requests, support updates and events.
Reports & analytics
Hours per runner, top runners, hour histogram — global or per event.
Offline backup as Excel
One click — trips, contacts and runners as an .xlsx on your tablet. Works even when festival Wi-Fi fails. Optionally automated via email.
Safe & auditable
Clear roles, 2FA (TOTP), full audit log including reveal events.
Backups & snapshots
Daily encrypted backups in Germany plus VM snapshots — restore path tested.
We know how important your data is.
That's why daily encrypted database backups land in a separate EU location and a VM snapshot of the entire instance is taken automatically. The full restore path is tested end to end — documentation alone isn't enough for us.
