Oncore
Turn concert crowds into content machines
A marketplace where artists post bounties for concert footage, fans upload videos, intelligent quality control handles review, and approved submissions earn instant payouts.
The Market Gap
Artists need authentic concert content at scale but hiring videographers is expensive ($500+/shoot). Official content feels staged. Meanwhile, fans record amazing moments that go nowhere with no way to monetize what they naturally capture.
