Mostest 2.0 Launches as the First AI-Powered Vertical Event Planning Platform, Doubling Valuation in $1.6T Market

Strategic launch targets API partners, micro-influencers, & beta communities following rapid growth prompting a seed round backed by Capital Q® Ventures Inc.

NEW YORK, FL, UNITED STATES, November 13, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Mostest, the AI-powered event planning platform transforming how communities, brands, and individuals create memorable experiences, today announced the launch of Mostest 2.0, "the event planner in your pocket." The launch comes as the company nearly doubled its valuation to $16M post-money during its pre-seed round, prompting an immediate transition to seed led by multi-asset fund, Capital Q^® Ventures Inc.

Solving a $1.6 Trillion Industry Stuck in the Past
Despite massive global spending, event planning remains inefficient, outdated, and plagued by hidden costs. The industry suffers from outdated infrastructure, feature-like platforms, rampant price inflation, and high friction throughout the planning process.

"Our neural chemistry is wired to reward connection on many levels, so our mission is simple - make gathering as frictionless as doom-scrolling. Mostest 2.0 eliminates the inefficiencies that have plagued this industry for decades, controversially attacking price, hidden fees, and historic fragmentation." said Sarah Klingman, Founder and CEO of Mostest.

The Mostest 2.0 Solution: End-to-End Intelligence
Mostest 2.0 represents the next evolution of the platform, delivering a comprehensive vertical AI solution through four key pillars:
- AI-Powered Event Intelligence: Understands event vision, budget, and goals to instantly generate personalized plans

- Vendor Network & API Layer: Access to 29,000 vetted vendors, with many partners operating exclusively offline – hidden local suppliers traditional digital platforms miss

- Workflow Automation: Handles vendor communication and negotiation automatically, eliminating manual outreach

- Data & Experience Layer: Provides built-in rewards and preferred pricing that passes savings directly to users

Mostest 2.0 uniquely combines curated planning with full vendor management, a competitive gap no other platform addresses for the 97% of consumers DIY-ing.

Notably, unlike competitors, Mostest 2.0 does not allow vendors to pay to participate and uniquely combines curated planning with full vendor management for just $195/mo – a competitive gap no other platform addresses. This model ensures recommendations are merit-based rather than pay-to-play, directly counter to almost all competitors.

Community-first Launch
Mostest strategically timed its 2.0 release to maximize impact through targeted channels:

- Beta Community: refined product experience with engaged early adopters

- Micro-Influencer Campaign: user-generated content creating authentic awareness

- API Partnership Strategy: major integrations across consumer and B2B

- Slack & Teams Bots (coming soon): Workplace integration for broad reach

A Strategic Partnership for Scale
The company’s transition to its seed round, led by Capital Q^® Ventures, marks a pivotal step in scaling Mostest’s AI and data infrastructure.

“Mostest represents the kind of company we’re proud to back — a category-defining platform built by visionary founders attacking real inefficiencies in massive, under-tech markets,” said Diego Rivero, Venture Capital Deal Team Lead at Capital Q^® Ventures
