Case Study: Bizly achieves 8x venue database growth with CloudFactory managed workforce

Bizly found the perfect workforce to help it expand its event planning platform to over 18,000 venues

Bizly, an event planning and management platform, needed to rapidly expand and enrich its venue database—moving from about 2,000 to 18,000 listings—while ensuring details like capacity and ambiance were accurate so clients wouldn’t contact unsuitable venues. To avoid hiring and managing contractors in-house, Bizly engaged CloudFactory’s Efficient Managed Workforce to verify and enrich location profiles.

CloudFactory assigned a project manager who trained a Kenya-based analyst team, implemented spot-check feedback loops, and scaled data-enrichment work quickly. The vendor added more than 12,000 venues in under six months (an 8x database increase), helped Bizly launch a new app, and reduced Bizly’s spot‑checking from ~50% to about 20%, delivering fast, affordable, high-quality results.
