Tell Copilot.
Open the Venue Designer and describe the venue. Copilot writes the plan, checks it and builds it in one step you confirm. Then keep going in plain words: add a bar by the entrance, curve the back rows, add a dance floor.
You do not need to learn a seating-chart tool. Tell Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude or any chat AI what the venue has: ticket types, a stage, rows, tables, a bar, the exits. SeatLayer checks what the AI wrote and builds a real chart with seats you can sell. Nothing goes on sale until you publish.
The demo Designer needs no account. Choose New from, then Paste from an AI.
“A wedding for 200. Twenty round tables of ten, a head table, a dance floor, a bar on the left, the entrance at the back.”

All three write the same thing: a Venue Spec, a short file that says what the venue has and where, in words. SeatLayer places every seat and checks the file before your chart changes.

Copy our ready prompt into your AI and describe the venue. Paste its whole reply back into the Designer. SeatLayer checks it and shows what it will build. This works in the free demo Designer, with no account.
Connect SeatLayer to your AI as an MCP server. It builds the whole venue in one call with build_from_venue_spec, which checks the file first. It can then add a stage, bars, exits, signs or curved rows. A person still approves publishing.
mcp.seatlayer.io/mcp?tools=buildThe Designer reads the reply as you paste it. If the AI got something wrong, you do not have to read JSON: copy the list of fixes back to your AI and it sends a corrected file.
Ask your AI for the venue, paste its reply, and check it here before anything changes.
Copy this prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any chat AI, then describe your venue in your own words.

A Venue Spec says what the venue has and where it goes, in words. It never holds coordinates. SeatLayer places everything with the same tools the Designer uses, then you fine-tune by hand.
Six worked examples you can copy: theatre, wedding, club, arena, expo hall and comedy club.
Venue Spec guide and examples ↗Once the chart exists, Copilot changes it on request. SeatLayer checks each change, saves it as a draft and waits for you to publish.
Illustration of a Copilot session.
Copilot works only on the chart you have open, in your own account.
Copilot can only use the tools SeatLayer allows, whatever it is asked.
It saves a new draft and flags any conflict, so nothing is lost.
See what changed and the checks, then publish or roll back.
What Copilot can do today.
Capacity, sections, accessible seats, labels and what to fix, without changing anything.
Add a stage, a bar, exits, signs, a dance floor or curved rows, placed in words. Every change is a draft you can review or undo.
Describe the room and Copilot writes one Venue Spec, checks it, and builds it in one step you confirm.
Share a floor plan or photo. Copilot flags what it is unsure of, and your image stays private.
Not available yet. Heights and the 3D view stay normal Designer settings.
Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or another MCP client can build and edit one chart you allow. Publishing stays with you.
A plan or venue image supplies context. It remains a reference, not automatic venue truth.
Give Copilot a floor plan or venue photo. It proposes sections and rows, shows where it is less sure, and hands you an editable chart to check.
Prefer to draw it yourself? The free seating chart maker works with no AI at all.
Only the layout comes across. Orders, tickets, payments and customer data are never copied.
Draw from scratch or open one of 58 templates.
Bring a public chart across as a draft you review before publishing.
Upload a plan image or PDF page and click each printed block to add its seats.
Any photo or CAD file is a starting point to check, not a finished chart.
