What's live, what's in beta, what's next

No vaporware. Here's exactly what works in GigBookerAI today, what we're still refining, and what's on the way — plus a running log of every change. We'd rather under-promise and show you the receipts.

Known limitations, stated plainly: GigBookerAI is in active beta. Some venue- and agent-side tools are still being refined (marked Beta above). It does not process payments — it calculates and records them. Two-way calendar sync, a native app, and full self-service export/deletion are planned but not live yet. We keep this page current so you always know exactly where things stand.
