About
Built for the people who throw events.
Collect Sisu is a local marketplace for event rentals and services. You can list what you have, find what you need, and skip the big-box rental experience.
Why we built this
Planning an event in your community shouldn’t mean calling the same warehouse everyone else does. The people who know your town — local stylists, photographers, the neighbor with a beautiful set of rented chairs — already have what you need. Collect Sisu makes it easier to find them and easier for them to make a living doing the work they love.
Local first
Browse rentals and services from people in your community — not warehouses that don't know your neighborhood.
Honest pricing
No hidden fees, no surprise upcharges, no listing fees for hosts. The price you see is the price you pay.
One cart, many vendors
Bundle inventory from multiple hosts into a single coordinated checkout. Plan an entire event in one flow.
Built-in protections
Stripe-secured payments, host-side acceptance, blind reviews. Both sides are protected end-to-end.
Sisu — what it means
Sisu is a Finnish word that’s hard to translate directly. It means quiet, stubborn perseverance — the kind of grit you call on when you’ve been awake for 18 hours setting up, and your friend’s wedding is in two. It’s what the people who do this work for a living have, and it’s what we’re collecting here.
