Flow vs LASSO

LASSO is a mature workforce-management platform built for live-event production companies — scheduling, onboarding, payroll, and travel for AV crews and corporate-event staff. Flow targets a different vertical: performing-arts agencies that manage dancers and artists across auditions, contracts, cross-border payments, and rehearsals.

Frequently asked questions

Is LASSO a good fit for a dance company or performing-arts agency?
LASSO is built for live-event production crews (AV, corporate events) and scores low on dance and performing-arts workflows. For audition-to-payment management of dancers and artists, Flow is the purpose-built alternative.
Does LASSO handle cross-border payments and EU tax compliance?
As of 2026 LASSO focuses on US domestic payroll and does not offer cross-border payouts or EU freelancer tax compliance. Flow supports both natively.
What is the main difference between Flow and LASSO?
LASSO manages event-staffing operations; Flow manages the full performing-arts lifecycle — casting, contracts, cross-border pay, and AI-driven performance analytics — for dance and artist agencies.
