Non-exclusive, no listing fee, a published 17.5%, and applications reviewed by a person.
Most bureaus treat speakers as inventory. You send your materials into a portal, you're listed beside a thousand other names, and you hear about an opportunity only after it's already been offered to someone with a longer relationship with the agent.
We're building the opposite: a small, individually-verified roster where placement is based on fit with the brief rather than who bought position. Listing is free, the arrangement is non-exclusive, and our 17.5% is published - so you always know exactly what sits between your fee and the client's budget.
We review every application personally, and we're honest about our stage: iShruti is a young bureau building its founding roster. Joining it early is worth something concrete rather than sentimental: your commission stays at 17.5% for as long as you're on the roster whatever the rate becomes later, you're seen for every brief you fit, and the founding marker on your profile is permanent - only this first group ever gets it. None of that survives scale, which is exactly why it is on offer now.
If you've done real work in the AI era and can hold a room, we'd like to see your application - and we'll tell you plainly where we are in our journey.
Practitioners who can hold a room.
Not follower counts. We screen for identity, real work in the AI era, and stage skill - then place you on fit with the brief, never on who paid.
Placement is based on fit with the brief - not on who bought position. No pay-to-play, no inflated roster.
Free to list, non-exclusive, and our 17.5% is published - you always know what sits between your fee and the budget.
Payouts run through Stripe Connect, direct to your bank, once the engagement is delivered.

Five questions every organizer asks - tap one.
Nothing. There's no listing fee, no subscription, and no pay-to-play placement. We earn our published 17.5% commission only on completed, booked engagements.
No. The arrangement is non-exclusive - you're free to work with other bureaus and to take direct bookings. We ask only that fees you publish with us are the fees you honour.
Through Stripe Connect, direct to your bank account, once the engagement is delivered. Contract templates and inquiry management are handled on the platform.
Identity, real work in the AI era, and stage skill - practitioner credentials over follower counts. We look at what you've built or researched, and how you handle a room.
We review every application personally, so it takes a few business days rather than minutes. If you're a fit for the current roster, you'll hear from a person.
Three things, and they are the ones that stop being possible once there is volume. Your commission is fixed at 17.5% for as long as you are on the roster, whatever our standard rate becomes later. You are seen for every brief you fit - on a roster this size nothing is filtered past you. And your profile carries a founding marker permanently; whoever joins in two years will not get one, however good they are. What it does not mean is a promise about how many bookings you will get - we will not imply demand we cannot yet show you.
Rather we just figure it out for you?
Get a shortlistNo. We screen for real work and stage skill, not follower counts - practitioners who've built, researched, or led change in the AI era.
Yes. You set your range; we publish it transparently with our 17.5% inside the client-facing number.
That's fine and expected - the arrangement is non-exclusive by design.
We're building a founding roster deliberately rather than listing everyone. That means fewer names, individually checked.
Because three things on offer today stop being possible at scale: your commission is locked at 17.5% for as long as you're on the roster whatever the rate becomes, you're seen for every brief you fit, and your profile carries a founding marker that only this first group will ever have. We are not promising you a volume of bookings - only the terms.
We individually check identity, real work, and stage skill. Every speaker. No exceptions.
If your audience rates it below 8/10, our commission is refunded. The full terms are on the guarantee page.
