See it work.
One evening, in the order it happens. The floor comes first, because it is the part everything else is built to reach.
Tap connect. If they tap back, you have each other.
Check in and the floor opens: everyone in the room who is open to talk, with the three lines they wrote when they arrived. You tap connect on the ones worth meeting. When it is mutual you have their card and a thread with them, in the same moment.
Three lines, written at the door
Working on, ask me about, want from this event. Seventy characters each, which is what keeps a whole room readable in one scroll.
You write yours before you read theirs
The floor stays closed until you have declared. Nobody browses a room they have not joined.
Only the people actually here
Checked in, and opted in. Being on the floor is a choice you make in the room, and you can step off it at any point in the evening.
Accept is the exchange
There is no second step and no follow request. A mutual connect hands over the card and opens the thread at once.
A decline is invisible.
You tap connect. They decide. If the answer is no, nothing arrives. No notification, no email, no counter that moves, no row you could go and read.
A request that was turned down looks exactly like a request nobody has opened yet, because nothing you can see, or ever will see, tells them apart.
Here is the whole of it, in the database. The one read you have of your own sent requests answers with two things: who you tapped, and when. Both outcomes come back through it, in the same order, with nothing on either row to sort them by. The counter that says how many requests you have out is counted from that same set, so it does not move when somebody decides.

Those two panels are the same markup, because there is no query that could tell them apart. Nothing to film here, and that is the point.
A scan, or ten seconds for a walk in.
Check in runs in a browser on whoever is working the door. Hold up a phone, the code turns green, and the roster updates for everyone else on the desk at the same time.
The ticket is a QR on a phone
Black on white in every theme, dark mode included, so it still scans off a dim screen at the back of a queue.
A walk in takes ten seconds
A name and an email, and they land on the same list as everyone who booked weeks ago.
More than one person can work the door
Two phones on the desk see the same roster, live, so nobody is checked in twice.
From the first RSVP to the recap.
Make the event, give it a look, publish it. Then approve, promote, announce and recap from one place, in the order the evening actually happens.
Approval or a waitlist
Take everyone, take some, or let the room fill itself and promote from the list as people drop.
One blast, two places
What you write lands in the app and in every inbox, and stays on the record of what you sent.
A recap the next morning
First names, the photographs and what happened, ready while people still remember it.
One card, two sides.
The front is who you are. The back is a QR to save you by and the three lines you wrote for tonight. It is the same card on the floor, in a thread, and on your public page.
Save Contact, not a typed handle
The back carries the code and the control, so the exchange is a scan at a bar rather than two people spelling names.
It says something different at every event
The three lines belong to the evening, so the same card arrives at the next room with new answers on it.
Everything you said yes to, in one grid.
Events you are going to, events you are running, and the meetings people booked with you. Drop a task straight onto the day it belongs to.
Your Google calendar underneath
Connect it and an hour that is busy there is busy here, so nobody books over the day job.
A month, a week, or a list
The same days, at whatever distance you need to read them from.
Give people a link and let them pick.
Set the hours you are free, once. Your page offers only the times that are genuinely open, in whatever timezone the visitor is reading it from, and either side can move it later.
Nobody does timezone arithmetic
Someone in another city sees their own clock and books the hour you meant.
Move it or cancel from the email
The confirmation carries a link that does both, with no account on their side.
Try it at the next one.
Sign in once. Make an event, or find one already on tonight. The floor opens when you check in.
