Workchat for Events

Attendees, ready
before the doors open.

Tickets, dietary forms, travel details, day-of logistics — Workchat walks every attendee through their list on WhatsApp, and answers the questions your inbox usually catches at 2am.

Free for your next event up to 100 attendees.

The pain

You don't lose attendees at the ticket sale. You lose them at the headshot, the dietary form, the session pick.

By show day, half your inbox is people asking what time check-in opens, where the green room is, and whether they can bring a plus-one — questions you've already answered six times in the FAQ.

Your event ops team becomes a help desk on day -2. Then everyone arrives missing a badge, a meal pref, or a release form, and the first hour is chaos.

A real attendee thread

Every prep task, finished in chat.

Your attendee gets a single WhatsApp thread the day they're confirmed. Workchat introduces itself, sends the checklist, and stays on call until every item is ticked.

If they ask "what time should I arrive?" or "what's the dress code?" — Workchat already knows. If they don't know what a session looks like, it walks them through it.

No portal. No password. No lost form.

Hi Maya — confirmed for Northgate Founders Dinner on April 18th. Four quick things to sort: badge headshot, dietary preference, arrival time, and travel detail. Want me to start now?
09:14
do i need a professional headshot?
09:18 ✓✓
Nope — well-lit selfie is fine. They print it small on the badge. You can send it right here.

09:20

09:21 ✓✓
Doors 6:30pm, seated 7:00pm sharp. Aim to arrive 6:45 to check in without a queue. Final two — flying in or local?
09:21

Logged. I'll text you a car-service link tomorrow and a final reminder day-of. All four tasks complete — see you the 18th, Maya.

The math

23%

of conference attendees show up with at least one missing prep item — a badge issue, a missed waiver, a wrong meal.

0%

of those problems are interesting. They are all just a question someone never got around to asking.


Walk in with everyone already ready.

How it works

From RSVP to arrival — handled.

01

Drop in your attendee list.

CSV from your ticketing platform, or 80 names typed in. We'll match them to your event timeline.

02

Workchat runs every thread.

Headshots, dietary, travel, session picks, COIs from sponsors — collected and answered, one attendee at a time.

03

Walk in, everything done.

Your dashboard shows who's complete, who's stuck, and what your team needs to handle by hand.

What event teams ask first

Questions, before the doors open.

Won't attendees get annoyed by WhatsApp messages?+

No — because it's not a blast. It's a one-to-one thread that only sends when something is actually outstanding. Reply rates run 6–10× email. Every attendee can mute or pause at any time.

Does it work for international attendees?+

Yes. WhatsApp is the default messaging app in most of the world, and Workchat replies in the language the attendee writes in. It also handles timezone phrasing automatically.

What about multi-day or recurring events?+

Workchat schedules nudges across the full timeline — pre-event, day-of, between days, and post-event for feedback. Recurring events (a quarterly summit, a monthly meetup) reuse the same playbook.

Can it handle sponsors and speakers, not just attendees?+

Yes — separate playbooks per audience. Speakers get bio + slide deadlines. Sponsors get COIs and booth specs. Attendees get the prep list. All in one event dashboard.

How fast can we go live?+

First batch within 24 hours. Most teams ship their first thread the same afternoon they upload a list.
