Keep Attendees Engaged and Connected
Let attendees ask questions, respond to polls, connect and engage with others in real time, all in one place.
Engagement shouldn't require a separate app
Most events split engagement across multiple tools, making it harder for attendees to participate.
Engagement tools live separately
When Q&A, polling, and networking live in different tools, attendees have to keep switching back and forth. That friction adds up, and fewer people participate.
Low virtual participation
Virtual attendees drop off when engagement isn’t built into the experience. Without easy ways to ask questions or interact, sessions become passive and people disengage.
No engagement visibility
Post-event surveys only tell one part of the story. Without real-time data, it’s hard to see what actually held attention or where engagement dropped off.
Networking feels forced
Good networking needs context. Who’s attending, what they do, and why they’re there. Without that, networking turns into empty directories or conversations that don’t go anywhere.
Everything your attendees need to stay present and connected
Engagement is built directly into the attendee experience. Everything works together across in-person and virtual audiences, so no one is switching tools or missing part of the event.
Live Chat
Real-time conversation during livestream sessions
Turn chat on or off for each session. Attendees can participate in real time, and moderators can monitor conversations to keep them on track.
Q&A
Structured questions that keep the conversation focused
Attendees submit questions during sessions, and moderators can review, approve, and surface them to speakers or open the conversation for a fully transparent Q&A.
Polls
Pulse-check your audience in real time
Schedule polls ahead of time or launch them during sessions to gauge sentiment, test knowledge, or spark discussion. Choose whether results are shared with attendees or used by your team.
Session Feedback Surveys
Collect structured feedback while it's still fresh
Send post-session surveys automatically or trigger event-wide feedback at any point. Results flow directly into your analytics so you can see sentiment as it comes in.
Attendee Networking
Help attendees connect with the right people
Give attendees visibility into who else is at the event with profiles that highlight role, organization, and interests. They can browse, connect, and message directly, with full control over what they share.
Attendee Chat Lounges
Create spaces for conversation by audience
Set up chat lounges based on registration level or audience type so attendees can connect in smaller, more relevant groups.
Engagement that works across every event format
The same engagement tools work for in-person, virtual, and hybrid events, so you’re not managing separate systems for different audiences.
In-Person Engagement
Keep attendees engaged throughout the event
Attendees use the Attendee Hub or mobile app for chat, Q&A, and polls during sessions. Check-in, agenda management, notifications, and networking are all built in, so everything stays in one place.
Virtual Engagement
Engagement built directly into the livestream
Attendees can chat, ask questions, respond to polls, and connect with others without leaving the stream. Everything is built into the experience, so there’s no need for separate tools.
Hybrid Engagement
One set of tools for both audiences
In-person and virtual attendees use the same chat, Q&A, and polls, so everyone participates in the same conversation without separate moderation or disconnected experiences.
See how attendees actually engaged
Engagement data is tracked in real time, so you can see participation as it happens and review detailed breakdowns after the event.
Q&A & Chat Participation
Track chat activity and Q&A participation to see which sessions drive the most interaction.
Poll & Survey Results
View poll responses as they come in and track survey completion to understand attendee sentiment across your event.
