For event organisers · Partners, sponsors & contracts

Thirty contracts signed. You know who owes what, by when.

Commitment Tracker keeps every partner deal as rows you can chase: what we deliver, what the partner delivers, the value, the owner, the due date. Overdue turns red by itself. Totals add themselves. The partner one-pager prints before every meeting. Built for sponsors, suppliers, media partners and host cities — commercial deals and delivery deals in the same matrix.

The awkward "so… what did we promise you?" call ends here. That is the whole product.

Who owes what, to whom, by when, and what is the value — one matrix answers.

Three things it does

Three jobs. Nothing else.

One row per promise

Not 46 columns per partner filled once at signing and read never. A promise is a row with a direction, an owner, a due date and a status — we deliver the passes, the partner delivers the fee. Rows get chased; columns get forgotten.

Dates that act like dates

No traffic light and expiry date fighting for one cell, no deadline hidden inside a sentence. Past due turns red with the days counted, the next 14 days turn gold, and the Overview lists the ten nearest deadlines with their owners.

An overview that cannot lie

Signed and pending value computed from the rows every time you open it — no editable total to type over, no IF-formula quietly drifting for months. Values the app can't read turn red and count as zero, loudly, not silently.

Don't take my word for it. Break the demo.

The free test is the full tool on a real example: a two-day B2B conference, ten partners, 46 commitments — sponsors, suppliers, a media barter, a host city, three deadlines already blown. Change a status and watch the totals move. Open a partner's one-pager. Press ▶ Present.

Excel vs Commitment Tracker

The same six jobs. Side by side.

The job	Your spreadsheet	Commitment Tracker
Each promise	46 columns, A to AT — every right and obligation a column, filled once at signing, read never.	One row per promise, with an owner, a date and a status. Rows get chased.
Who owes whom	What you owe them and what they owe you, mixed in the same prose cell.	Direction on every row: we deliver, or the partner delivers. The balance per partner computes itself.
A deadline	"ticket allocation by 15.7." written inside the VIP cell. No calendar ever saw it. July 15 arrived; the allocation didn't.	Due dates get their own column: overdue red with days counted, next 14 days gold.
The management overview	IF-formulas mirroring the matrix — until someone typed over three cells and the "automatic" summary lied for months.	Computed from the rows every render. No editable cells, nothing to type over, nothing to drift.
A value the sheet must add	"12 600 € (14 days after the event)" — a payment term inside a number cell no SUM will ever add.	Readable value in the value field, the term in the notes. Unreadable values turn red, not silently zero.
The partner's copy	The whole 46-column matrix, or a hand-made one-pager already out of date.	A one-pager that prints A4, or a link showing that partner only their own deal.

You know this file

The contract matrix had 46 columns. Then someone made a copy.

Forty-six columns, A to AT — Exclusivity, Termination Clause, WOW Factor, VIP Extras — and two section headers both numbered 6, because even the template lost count of itself.
The validity column held Green, Yellow, Red — and one row that just said 31.03.2018. A traffic light and an expiry date fighting for the same cell, and both losing.
Deadlines lived inside sentences: "ticket allocation by 15.7." written in the VIP cell. No calendar ever saw it. July 15 arrived; the allocation didn't.
"Deal agreed, signatures missing" — the legal state of a €29,000 supplier contract, tracked as free text in the remarks column plus a lone x in a column nobody remembers making.
The management overview mirrored the matrix with IF-formulas — until someone typed over three cells and the "automatic" summary quietly lied for months. Meanwhile the money read "12 600 € (14 days after the event)" — a payment term inside a number cell no SUM will ever add.

These are not invented examples. They are from contract matrices that ran world championships, a MotoGP round and city events. The matrix held everything and chased nothing — the deadlines that mattered were inside sentences, the overview lied, the promises got delivered from memory. Commitment Tracker keeps the matrix and builds in the chasing.

Who it is for

Built for the person who answers for the partner deals.

Commitment Tracker is for the commercial or partnerships lead who signs the sponsors, suppliers and media deals — and then has to make sure every promise inside them actually gets delivered, on both sides, on time.

This is for you if

You manage sponsors, suppliers, media partners or host-city deals for events
Your commitments live in a wide contract matrix where deadlines hide inside sentences
You want signed vs pending value, and the next deadlines, computed — not typed and drifting
You want each partner to see their own deal on one page, without the whole matrix

This is not for you if

You need a legal drafting or contract-lifecycle system. The signed PDF stays the legal truth; this delivers the promises inside it
You need multi-user simultaneous editing today — one owner edits, everyone else views live
Your 46-column matrix has never let a promise slip. Then keep it. You are the exception

What is included

One matrix. Every promise chased.

The Partners tab is the directory: one row per organisation — contract status, agreement period, value, payment status, contacts, the contract file. The Commitments matrix hangs off it: one row per promise, grouped under its partner, IDs assigned automatically. The Direction column is the whole idea — We deliver the logo, the passes, the booth; the partner delivers the fee, the products, the campaign.

The Overview is the management picture — signed and pending value, value by category, the ten nearest deadlines — computed on every render, so it cannot drift. The Partner view puts one deal on one page: print it A4, or share it as a view-only link that shows the partner only their own deal.

Also included

Monday, 9:00: who owes what.

▶ Present is the full-screen board for the weekly meeting: overdue at the top in red with the days counted, the next 14 days in gold, then partner by partner — contract status, value, next due date, every open promise as a chip. Pick one partner and the board becomes their deal: we deliver on the left, they deliver on the right. The meeting runs itself.

Between meetings, 🔗 Share makes two view-only links — the full matrix for the team, or one partner's page for that partner. The data travels inside the link. No account needed, nothing to install.

Proof

An event director built this. Not a software company.

I'm Jesse Kiuru. I help event organisers and host cities bid, plan and run better events. Event director of the Lahti 2017 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships. Currently structuring the Winter World Masters Games 2028.

Commitment Tracker exists because I ran the partner deals of world championships and a MotoGP round in that matrix — 46 columns of rights, tickets, banners and payment terms that held everything and chased nothing. The examples on this page are from my own files; this is the same matrix with the chasing built in.

Price

€99. Once. That's it.

One sponsor logo forgotten, one instalment not chased, one partner who felt un-looked-after — any of them costs more than €99, in money or in the renewal. Test first — buy when it earns its place.

Questions

Asked before buying.

Can't I just build this in Excel?

You can. I did, for world championships and a MotoGP round — 46 columns that held everything and chased nothing, deadlines hidden in sentences, an overview that lied. The matrix was right; the chasing was missing. If yours never lets a promise slip, keep it. This is for everyone else.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Commitment Tracker runs in the browser — laptop, tablet or phone. Your events save automatically to your account.

Is this a legal or contract-drafting tool?

No, on purpose. The signed PDF stays the legal truth — link it on the partner row. This is the delivery tool: it tracks the promises inside the deal so they actually happen. Lawyers write contracts; organisers deliver them.

We have sponsors and suppliers. Does it handle both?

Yes — that's the point of the direction column. A sponsor deal is mostly money in and visibility out; a supplier deal is mostly services in and payment out. Same row logic, same chasing. Categories cover sponsors, media partners, suppliers, service partners, host cities, exhibitors — and you can add your own.

Can a partner see their own deal?

Yes. 🔗 Share makes a partner link that opens straight onto that partner's one-pager — contract facts, what you deliver, what they deliver — and nothing else. It's a snapshot of the moment you share it; send a fresh link after big changes.

What does "free test" mean exactly?

The full tool on an example event — ten partners, 46 commitments, a media barter, an unsigned €29,000 supplier deal and three blown deadlines already glowing red. Open the Overview, then one partner's page. Nothing saves — 100 people can test at once and never see each other's changes.
