Solution

This is what collaborating with your software looks like.

Registration

Registration, built in minutes. By you.

Describe the flow you need and watch it build: ticket types, approval routing, conditional questions, group registration.

Websites

A site that was never a template.

Every event site on a legacy platform is one of eight layouts with your logo in the corner. Anything past that is custom development, a quote, and a timeline.

Event app

An app your attendees actually use.

Schedule, speakers, sponsors, and an AI concierge that answers attendee questions instantly, no download, no separate login, so people actually open it.

Networking

Nobody travels just for the slides.

People come to meet people. Highbar treats that as the product: recommendations from the moment they sign in, agents working toward what they came for, and meetings that actually get booked.

One data model

Change it once. It's changed everywhere.

Registration, your event site, and your app are not three products wired together with integrations. They are three surfaces of one system, reading from and writing to the same record. That is the engine behind everything above.

Speaker changes, schedule updates and sponsor profiles feed one event record that syncs registration, event website and event app

AI that earns its keep

AI where it actually matters.

Every event platform added AI to the datasheet this year. We build it where it changes what's possible: work no event team could do by hand, at any headcount.

A website chatbot that turns questions into registrations.

An embeddable chatbot that answers questions on your event site, even one not built on Highbar. Program details, logistics, registration questions, handled before they ever reach your inbox.

A concierge that answers before attendees ask twice.

Session details, room changes, what to do next, answered instantly, at 2am, in any language. Ten thousand individual conversations your team never had to have.

Curation that gets every attendee to the right room.

A recommendation engine that learns what each attendee cares about and surfaces the sessions, people, and sponsors that fit. Three thousand personal agendas, built quietly in the background.

Summaries that turn sessions into a content library.

Upload the session audio and get a clean, structured summary: key points, takeaways, ready to publish. Three hundred sessions become a content library your team never had to write.

On the floor

The moments that make an event, handled.

Meetings

Meetings that happen, not just get booked.

Attendees find the right people, request time, and get a slot with a room and a reminder. No spreadsheet, no organizer playing switchboard.

1:1 meetings just launched, page coming soon.

Every scan, no hardware, no rental fee.

Frequently asked questions

What is Highbar?

Highbar is an AI event platform. Describe your event and it builds your event app, registration, and website on one data model, so a change made in one place shows up in all three. Most teams launch in under an hour.

Who is Highbar for?

Conferences, associations, trade shows, and corporate events, run by teams who would rather build the event themselves than wait on a vendor. There is no sales call, no implementation project, and no training to get started.

How much does Highbar cost?

A single event costs $2 per paid registration plus $5 per engaged attendee, and no event is ever billed more than $9,500. The Platform plan is $12,000 a year for unlimited events, with 3,000 engaged attendees included. Registration, the website, and the event app are included in both, and you can start free.

What counts as an engaged attendee?

Someone who uses your event app at least 5 times. Not everyone who registered, not every badge scan, not the people who never showed up.

The pricing page covers the rest, including what happens when far more people show up than you planned for.

Do attendees need to download an app?

No. The event app opens from a link or a QR code in any browser, on desktop, iOS and Android, with no app store and no password. Attendees can add it to their home screen if they want it to feel like an installed app.

What AI features does Highbar include?

An AI concierge that answers attendee questions from your event content, a networking agent that matches attendees and helps book meetings, AI curation of sessions, people, and sponsors, session summaries, a website chatbot for your event site (in beta), and Magic Import, which turns a spreadsheet of sessions, speakers, and sponsors into an event app.

Who built Highbar?

The team behind Attendify. Michael Balyasny founded Attendify in 2011 and built it into a DIY event app platform that powered more than 20,000 events for 10 million attendees before Hopin acquired it in 2021, and then served as VP of Product at Hopin. Highbar, founded in 2025, is the same idea rebuilt for how events work now.

How does Highbar keep event data secure?

Data is hosted on Google Cloud Platform and Vercel, encrypted at rest and in transit, and every event is isolated from every other. We never sell, enrich, or monetize attendee data. The security page has the full details, including our subprocessors.
