From Venue Signals to Night Matches
BostonIntel started by organizing public planning signals: a way to see which venues make menus, events, hours, useful links, and visit basics easy to understand. It is becoming a way to match the night someone wants with venues that publish the right public signals.
What Changes
The planning-signal dataset still matters because it is the trust layer. It shows what was detected, where the signal came from, and what should be confirmed. The matching layer uses those same signals to answer more natural planning questions.
Examples
- wings and karaokeLook for food signals and karaoke event signals, then confirm the event schedule and kitchen hours.
- trivia and dinnerFind trivia signals alongside menu or food planning signals.
- live music this weekendUse live-music and event-date signals, with a reminder to confirm time-sensitive details.
- sports and foodMatch sports-friendly signals with visible food or menu planning context.
- easy group planPrioritize venues with clear visit basics, useful links, and strong planning confidence.
What a Match Means
A match means public signals were found that may support that kind of plan. It is not a review, a taste judgment, or a guarantee. Official venue links remain the source to confirm menus, hours, event times, tickets, and other time-sensitive details.
