Key takeaways for DRAYV - Rave & Event Discovery
Where is it heading?

- The active two-week update cadence shows the team is iterating on core functionality rather than entering maintenance mode.
- The absence of integrated ticketing creates a conversion gap that will likely cause promoter churn as they seek measurable ROI.
The SWOT
- Promoter follow system drives session frequency via direct notifications
