SeatGeek, a ticketing aggregation site that searches dozens of ticketing sites and presents the results in one place, is hoping to change the ticketing industry again. They company recently announced a new primary ticketing platform called SeatGeek Open, which allows for greater accessibility and reduces the possibility of fraud. “If you poll the average American, they don’t like the current ticketing process,” SeatGeek co-founder Russ D’Souza said in a statement.

Some current ticketing sites are based on outdated models, and SeatGeek took advantage of this, realizing that it was time to adapt.
