You never start from a blank page. LiveJudge creates the site for your event and fills the first draft with what it already knows: the event name, the tagline, the start and end dates, the city, your entry and judge counts, and your logo.
After that, the site is yours
LiveJudge hands over that first draft once and then leaves it alone. Nothing you write in the builder is ever overwritten by a later change in LiveJudge, so you can rewrite every word without worrying that the event record will undo it.
Or let AI write the draft
At the top of Event Essentials there is Set Up With AI. Upload a flyer, or paste a link to a Facebook page or last year's site, and a draft fills in from it. Read what it produces before you publish it: it is a starting point, not a fact checker.
