Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the SeatGeek API to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the SeatGeek API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fseatgeek.com%2Fseatgeek" | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fseatgeek.com%2Fseatgeek" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Use Cases

★ AI Agent Event Discovery
AI agents use the SeatGeek API through Jentic to help users find and compare live events. An agent can search events by location, date, genre, or performer name and return structured results with pricing and venue details - enabling conversational ticket-finding without manual website browsing. The 7-endpoint surface covers events, venues, performers, and recommendations.

Aggregate event listings from SeatGeek into comparison tools or travel planning applications. The events endpoint supports filtering by date range, location radius, performer, and venue with pagination for bulk retrieval. Each event response includes lowest and highest price, ticket quantity available, and direct purchase links for price-comparison displays.

Why Jentic?
What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the SeatGeek API by hand means registering for a client_id, appending it to every query string, and paging through events, performers, and venues yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import SeatGeek from the API Directory, store the client_id once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
The SeatGeek API exposes read-only discovery endpoints, with ids like /events/{event_id} and /performers/{performer_id} used to fetch a single record, so scope by operation: limit the agent to the read operations it needs, such as listing events or fetching a venue, none of which change any data.
Credential isolation
Your SeatGeek client_id is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'find concerts near a city this weekend' or 'look up a performer', and Jentic returns the matching SeatGeek operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs
Specific to using SeatGeek API through Jentic.
Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for SeatGeek API?
SeatGeek does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call SeatGeek API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started with Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer.
What authentication does the SeatGeek API use?
The SeatGeek API uses a client_id API key passed as a query parameter. Through Jentic, your client_id is stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected automatically into requests - agents never see or log the raw key value.
Can I search for events near a specific location with the SeatGeek API?
Yes. The GET /events endpoint accepts lat, lon, and range parameters to filter events within a geographic radius. You can also filter by postal_code for US-based searches. Combine with datetime_utc filters to narrow results to specific date ranges.
What are the rate limits for the SeatGeek API?
SeatGeek allows up to 1000 requests per hour per client_id for free-tier access. Higher-volume access requires contacting SeatGeek's partnerships team. Exceeding the limit returns a 429 status. Jentic handles rate limit backoff automatically when executing requests.
How do I find upcoming concerts for a performer through Jentic?
Search Jentic for 'find upcoming events for a performer' to discover the GET /performers/{performer_id} operation, which returns the performer's event list. Alternatively, use GET /events with a performers.slug filter to search directly. Execute through Jentic and receive structured JSON with dates, venues, and pricing.
Does the SeatGeek API provide ticket prices?
Yes. Event responses include stats.lowest_price and stats.highest_price fields showing the current ticket price range. Individual listing-level pricing requires SeatGeek's partner API access. The lowest_price field reflects the cheapest available ticket at query time.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the SeatGeek API?
Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, you run it yourself and your own rules decide which SeatGeek operations and credentials the agent may use. The SeatGeek API exposes only read-only discovery endpoints, so you can scope the agent to just the operations it needs, such as GET /events to list events, GET /venues/{venue_id} to fetch a single venue, or GET /performers to look up an act. None of these operations change any data, and your stored client_id is injected at execution time rather than exposed to the agent.
