Active participation
The audience stops being a crowd. They become players — moving, choosing, scoring, returning. Engagement measured in minutes on-site, not glances.
Brand Activations · Experiential Marketing
ReadySet powers premium branded worlds — custom-themed missions, sponsor checkpoints, and live multiplayer storytelling that turns footfall into participation, and participation into earned media.

Why brands use ReadySet
Banners get ignored. Booths get bypassed. ReadySet rebuilds the activation as a live multiplayer world the audience steps inside, moves through, and posts about — with the brand woven into every beat.
The audience stops being a crowd. They become players — moving, choosing, scoring, returning. Engagement measured in minutes on-site, not glances.
Custom theming on every surface — splash, map, missions, leaderboard. The phone disappears into the world the brand is building.
Every checkpoint is a brand beat. Every mission is a script you wrote. The narrative isn't a tagline on a wall — it's what people are playing.
Photo missions, leaderboard wins, optional AR moments — every interaction is a shareable beat. The activation finishes its life on people's feeds.
Branded missions, scans, dwell time, and unlocks — all tracked. Hand the sponsor a report that proves the activation delivered, with numbers.
Players leave with screenshots, photos, and finale clips. The campaign keeps running long after the truss comes down.
The experience layer
No queues. Audiences open the ReadySet app, enter the event code, and the brand world unlocks on their phone — venue, festival ground, retail floor, or city block.
Welcome
Audience scans the branded QR at the gate, the activation, or the poster. They open the ReadySet app, enter the event code, and the brand world unlocks — splash, theme, sound.
Players name their team. The branded venue map appears with checkpoints, zones, and the first mission already pulsing in the corner.
Branded mission · 3 of 12
Pose with the crew. Submit straight from the app.
Branded checkpoints, sponsor moments, photo missions, with optional AR-enhanced drops. The activation isn't a stop on the route — it's the route.
Branded overlay added · ready to share
Every photo mission ships branded. Every win is screenshot-ready. The activation finishes its life on people's feeds, not on a takedown van.
Activation leaderboard
Top players revealed live with a sponsor-branded trophy. The crowd reacts in the room — and the moment travels everywhere else.
Sponsor & audience engagement
Sponsor booths, branded zones, hidden drops, photo moments — each one is a mission worth visiting because it's worth points, prizes, and the leaderboard. Visibility you can prove. Interaction you can replay.

How the metrics are measured
Every number in the engagement deck above maps to a clear definition, a measurement window, and an exportable source. No black-box panels, no inflated impressions.
Branded zone visits
vs. an organic baseline
Unique players entering a sponsor's geofenced zone, counted once per player per zone per day. Compared against a non-sponsored control zone in the same hours.
Active participation rate
actual play, not impressions
Players who completed at least one mission, divided by on-site audience. Measured live; audience size pulled from venue check-in data where available.
Dwell at branded checkpoints
median, outliers excluded
Time between a player triggering a sponsor checkpoint and leaving its geofence. We exclude the top 5% to keep the median honest.
Sponsor moments reported
every planned touchpoint, evidenced
Share of designed sponsor touchpoints — scans, missions, photos, posts — with at least one logged interaction. 100% means every promised moment generated activity.
Built for real-world activations
From a 500-person product launch to a multi-day festival ground, the same ReadySet engine adapts to the activation in front of you — branded, themed, and ready to scale.
Multi-day, multi-stage activations that turn the festival ground into a single connected playfield. Branded missions follow the audience from gate to encore.
Launch days where the audience doesn't watch the product — they play it. The activation is the demo, and the demo travels home in screenshots.
Multi-day, multi-location campaigns the public can join from a poster scan. The city becomes the campaign canvas; the leaderboard becomes the headline.
Pre-game, in-arena, and around the venue. Branded fan missions, sponsor unlocks, and a live leaderboard inside the second-screen moment.
Turn a pop-up into a destination. Branded scavenger hunt-style experiences across stores, neighborhoods, or districts — measurable, repeatable, on-brand.
Agency-built worlds with ReadySet as the engine underneath. You bring the creative; we bring the multiplayer infrastructure that makes it real.
Customization & branding
ReadySet is a customizable layer, not a template. Theme every surface, write every mission, design every checkpoint — or hand us your creative brief and we'll build the world with you.
Custom theming, end to end
Splash, map, mission cards, leaderboard, finale screen — every surface skinnable to the brand. Audiences play inside the world, not next to it.
White-label deployment
Run ReadySet under your own brand or your client's. We disappear; the experience is yours. Built for agencies who can't show a third-party logo.
Bespoke missions
Photo, trivia, scan, head-to-head — with optional AR-enhanced moments. Every mission custom-written around the brand story. Not modular. Not stock. Built for you.
Live producer control
A single dashboard to extend timers, push surprise missions, feature a sponsor, or adjust difficulty mid-activation. Producers stay in control all night.
Real-time analytics
Watch the floor live: who's playing, where they're moving, which branded zones are heating up. Optimize the activation while it's still running.
Production-grade reliability
Battle-tested across festivals, launches, and city-scale activations. The platform doesn't blink when 10,000 phones come online at once.

“It changed what an activation can be. People didn't pose for the brand wall and leave — they spent the night inside the brand world. The post-event report wrote itself.”

Real-world deployment
Silverstone's Lap of Lights ran the same engine that powers brand activations and festival grounds — proof that one mobile-powered layer can hold thousands of people inside a single live branded experience.
Proof
Thousands of attendees joined through the ReadySet app with a code at the gate — no queues, no second-class spectators.
Proof
Branded splash, map, and missions read as part of the activation. The phone disappeared into the world around it.
Proof
Mapped checkpoints spread the crowd across the circuit. No zone over-pressured, no installation went unseen.
