thumpN
India's first AI-native live entertainment platform
About thumpN
thumpN is an AI-native live entertainment discovery and ticketing platform founded in 2025 and headquartered in Mumbai, India. Built by former leaders from India’s live entertainment ecosystem, the platform uses its conversational AI assistant, Shadow, to help users discover concerts, comedy shows, theatre, festivals, sports, nightlife and community events through natural language instead of traditional search.
Unlike conventional ticketing platforms, thumpN combines AI with insights from artists, promoters, venue operators and local curators to deliver highly personalised event recommendations that improve with every interaction.
Beyond consumer discovery, thumpN offers AI-powered tools for organisers to publish events in under 10 minutes, generate event pages automatically, analyse audience behaviour, track sales trends and access real-time event insights.
The platform also enables organisers to embed ticketing on their own websites while maintaining ownership of their audience data, helping artists, venues and promoters grow without relying solely on traditional ticketing marketplaces.
