Plenary HQ

Conference planning

Every attendee detail, kept current by the attendees.

Plenary HQ gives students and delegates a profile they control — titles, dietary needs, accessibility, and whatever else you ask — while you plan rooms, layouts and reminders on the other side of the same event.

Attendees own their details

Everyone keeps their own title, organization, bio and contact details current. No more chasing spreadsheets.

Custom fields, your questions

Add any question your conference needs — dropdowns, checkboxes, dates — and attendees answer in their profile.

Dietary and accessibility

Collect restrictions and access needs once, then hand catering a clean summary with counts.

Venue and room planning

Search for your venue, pull in published meeting-room specs, and see which layouts actually fit your headcount.

Reminders that land

Send welcome notes, profile nudges and countdown emails from your own conference address.

Agenda and speakers

Build the schedule, order speakers within each session, and share the agenda on your event page.

Check-in and badges

Mark people off as they arrive, add walk-ups on the spot, and print name badges for the desk.

Tasks and budget

Assign to-do's to co-organizers with due dates and priorities, and keep the event budget in the same place.

Many conferences, one home

Run a spring symposium and a fall workshop side by side. Each has its own attendees and questions.

FAQ

Questions organizers ask us

Do attendees need an account?

Yes — a free one. Attendees sign up with their email or Google and enter the join code you give them. That account is exactly what lets them keep their own title, dietary needs and answers current, instead of emailing you corrections.

Can I host an event?

Event hosting is in closed beta. Request access through our contact form and we'll add you. Attendees can join any event with a code today.

Can attendees see the agenda?

Yes. Every event gets its own page where attendees can view the agenda and speakers, and sign in to manage their profile. You choose which sections are public and which are for registered attendees only.

What about people who show up unregistered?

Add walk-ins right at the check-in desk — they're counted alongside everyone else, and you can print them a badge on the spot.

How do dietary requirements reach the caterer?

Attendees record restrictions and access needs in their own profile. You get a clean summary with counts, so there's no chasing replies or reconciling spreadsheets.
