When an attendee or staff member posts a question in the event chat channel in [event chat platform, e.g. Slack, WhatsApp, in-app chat widget], an AI agent interprets it and decides which sources to search in [event data source, e.g. spreadsheet, event management platform, shared docs], such as the event schedule, speaker bios, logistics documents, and the live updates log. It combines what it finds into an answer, replies in the same thread, and points the person to the event team when no source covers the question.

Problem

Event teams struggle to manage attendee and staff inquiries during live events, with critical information like schedules, speaker details, and logistics scattered across docs, spreadsheets, and late changes. Staff are constantly distracted by repetitive questions that pull focus away from running the event smoothly, while attendees are left frustrated digging for answers on their own.

Generate timely content for every channel

An AI agent scans industry news feeds and social trends daily for relevant topics, decides which ideas are worth pursuing, and generates content tailored to each format and channel, then publishes each piece to the CMS and social scheduling tool. It chooses its approach based on the topic and audience rather than following one fixed template.

Compile market research reports

When a team member submits a research request form with a target market, research focus, and time frame, an AI agent runs web searches, decides which sources are credible and relevant, and keeps searching until the question is covered. It synthesizes the findings into a structured research document saved to the shared drive and sends the link to the requester.
