You pay the speaker's own fee, and nothing to us. No subscription, no setup fee, no pay-to-play.
Most speaker pricing is a negotiation you're not invited to. A fee is quoted, a margin is added somewhere in the middle, and nobody tells you which part is the speaker's and which part is the bureau's. That opacity is the industry norm, and it's the first thing we removed.
Our model is simple: iShruti charges no commission on bookings right now. No subscription, no setup fee, no pay-to-play placement. The price you're quoted is the speaker's own fee, plus travel where it applies - so the number you approve is the number that gets paid.
Registering is free for consultants, agents, speakers and startups, and the Members Club displays all of them once verified. A Club membership fee may come in future; currently everything is free, and we'd rather say so here than in a footnote.
The price you see is the speaker's fee.
Not a quote with a margin hidden inside it. The number you approve is the speaker's own fee, plus travel where it applies, and we charge no commission on it right now.
