# GalaDesk > GalaDesk is event team management software for wedding and event vendors. It helps event pros who run on contractors — not spreadsheets — schedule crews, prevent double-bookings, automate travel pay and mileage, manage a shared venue database, and communicate securely with clients. Available on web, iOS, and Android. ## What GalaDesk does - **Crew & contractor scheduling** — see who's available, assign staff to events, and stop the "who's available?" group-chat chaos. - **Double-booking prevention** — automatic conflict detection so a crew member is never assigned to two events at once. - **Automated travel pay** — calculates mileage and travel reimbursement for staff automatically, no manual math. - **Venue database** — store venue details, load-in notes, and logistics so teams stop re-learning the same venues. - **Secure client messaging** — keep client details out of personal group chats. - **Team & performance visibility** — one page for the whole team; see what's actually working. ## Who it's for Event and wedding vendors that staff events with contractors and part-time crew: event production companies, catering and rentals, wedding planners, DJs and entertainment, photo/video teams, and staffing coordinators. ## Pricing Free 30-day trial, no credit card required.
