Plan the programme
Lay out each day by room and group, with breaks, parallel sessions and rotations.
- Multi-day, multi-room programmes
- Directors, admins, faculty and support staff each get the right access
- Duplicate a session, files included, for repeated rotations
Take bookings, free or paid
Attendees book in a few minutes, and their confirmation email brings their ticket, programme and calendar links.
- Ticket types for each role, with limits
- Tiered cancellation policies, set once
- Every sale, fee and refund in one place
Check people in, fast
Stewards check people in from a phone, and every steward's list updates as they go.
- One-tap check-in, with Undo
- QR self check-in from any screen
- Printable check-in sheet as a backup
Every file ready in the room
Speakers upload their slides beforehand, and the presenter view opens each session's files at the right time.
- Slides stay presenter-only and handouts unlock for attendees at check-in
- Room screen links for a venue PC, with no one signed in
- The day's sessions stay on screen if the Wi-Fi drops
Feedback on every session
Attendees who checked in rate each session as the day goes on, then the event as a whole.
- A feedback email goes to checked-in attendees the morning after, with a reminder
- Anonymous averages, rating spreads and comments for every session, with a CSV export
- Speakers see feedback on their own sessions, and you can hide a comment from them
CPD certificates, automatically
Once the event has finished, each attendee who checked in and completed any feedback you require gets their certificate.
- Emailed as a PDF, and kept on the attendee's ticket to download again
- Your organisation's name or logo, the CPD amount and any accrediting body
- A certificate reference on each, so you can confirm one is genuine

- Upgrading is free and doesn't need a card.
- Card payments go straight to your organisation's own Stripe account, which we set up with you. No Stripe account? Tell us, and we'll find a way that works for you.
