About Commonly
Event technology that empowers anyone to bring their vision to life.
Commonly is an events company that builds tools making it possible for anyone to organize, fund, and execute events of any type. Our platform combines crowdfunding, ticketing, and nonprofit management into one seamless solution. We license this technology to mission-aligned organizations like One Million Small Startups Inc., enabling them to serve their communities with enterprise-grade event infrastructure.
Platform Licensing Model
Commonly licenses this comprehensive event crowdfunding platform to One Million Small Startups Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to fighting poverty through entrepreneurship. This partnership allows One Million Small Startups to focus on their mission while leveraging world-class event technology.
Our Mission
At Commonly, we believe that organizing events should be accessible to everyone—not just those with large budgets and technical teams. Whether you're planning a community fundraiser, a nonprofit gala, a neighborhood festival, or a startup launch party, you deserve tools that work as hard as you do.
Our platform eliminates the financial risk traditionally associated with event planning. By combining crowdfunding mechanics with professional ticketing and nonprofit management features, we enable organizers to validate demand, secure funding, and build excitement before committing a single dollar to production costs.
