The operational reality

Most platforms bolt on a separate networking tool. That means another login and another data silo

Each one adds another login, another data silo, and another integration to maintain. Organizers end up reconciling attendee records, meeting schedules, and exhibitor staff across systems they don’t control.

What it does

Run networking from the same registry as the event

Publish an attendee directory

Every registered attendee appears with name, job title and company, from the moment they register. No request to send, no approval to wait for.

Contacts, socials and a photo are theirs to add, exhibitor representatives are marked as such, and visibility can be scoped to the whole event or to one group.

Message inside the app

One-to-one chat runs between registered, signed-in attendees only: no outside accounts, no spam from people who never registered.

Profile, chat and meeting request sit on the same attendee record, so a conversation turns into a booked slot without leaving the app.

Book one-to-one meetings

Attendees manage their own availability slots, with the time and the place, and the recipient confirms or declines.

A meeting can be booked to an exhibitor’s stand, and everyone books against real availability, without a second platform or another login.

Capture and export contacts

A contact changes hands when someone taps Save contact or scans the QR code on a printed badge, so the exchange is an act each side takes.

Saved contacts and booked meetings export in a vCard-style file, and networking can be switched off for the event or hidden per attendee.

Key features

Profiles, chat and meetings on a single attendee record

In the directory from the start

Name, job title and company are listed for every registered attendee, with no request to send and no approval to wait for. Anything more is theirs to add, and hiding the profile completely also gives up their own view of the list.

One-scan contact capture

A unique per-attendee QR code, printed on the badge at check-in, captures a contact in a single scan.

Signed-in chat only

One-to-one chat is restricted to signed-in attendees, no spoofing, no spam from outsiders.

Meeting booking with slots

Attendees manage their own availability slots, time and location, and meetings can be booked to an exhibitor’s stand.

Group-level visibility

Run networking only for VIPs, partners, or a specific cohort, and surface exhibitor reps marked as Exhibitor in the directory.

Exports and an off switch

Saved contacts export in a vCard-style file, networking can be switched off for the event entirely, and every attendee can hide their own profile.

What earns leaderboard points

Scanning a partner’s QR at a stand or another attendee’s badge, posting a photo, downloading a deck, following a sponsor link, and attending a session recorded at check-in. Limits cap how often the same code can score.

The ranking attendees see

Inside the app everyone sees where they stand against the whole event, or only within their own group when groups are set up.

Prizes and the announcement

The reward is yours to choose: a physical prize, a title in the app, or access to something exclusive. Pull the final ranking from the admin when it is time to name the winners.

Across the event lifecycle

What you get

Networking you own, data and privacy included

30-minute call · tailored to your events

One system, no reconciling

Networking runs in one system with the rest of event operations, no second platform to license or reconcile.

Privacy you control

Visibility and privacy are controlled by the organizer, not by a third-party matchmaking vendor.

Networking that shows up in the numbers

Who met whom, when and where is structured data, not a folder of business cards. It reports alongside registrations and attendance, so the networking half of the event can be argued for on evidence.
