Announcing Highbar's Private Beta: The First Step Toward AI-First Event Tech

We’re thrilled to share some exciting news — Highbar.ai is officially launching its private beta! This marks the beginning of a new chapter in event technology that comes at a unique moment at the very beginning of a new technological wave.

The Perfect Blend of AI & Event App

Highbar.ai is more than an event app. It’s a platform built with a purpose: to enhance attendee engagement while freeing event organizers to focus on what matters most, the event experience.

Our first product introduces an AI co-pilot that revolutionizes how attendees navigate events and how organizers manage them. Gone are the days of endless scrolling through lists of sessions, speakers, and sponsors. With Highbar, attendees can ask questions and get instant, actionable answers—whether they’re looking for the best session to attend, finding a sponsor that aligns with their interests, or reconnecting with someone they met last year.

Highbar also integrates all the traditional event app features you know and love—like schedules, speaker profiles, and attendee directories—but supercharges them with AI to make them 10x more powerful and intuitive.

Why Private Beta?

A private beta gives us the opportunity to roll out Highbar in a measured way. We’ll be working closely with early adopters to gather feedback, refine the experience, and ensure our product meets the needs of the event tech community. This is a chance to help shape the future of event technology, together.

What Highbar.ai Delivers

1. AI Co-Pilot: A smart assistant for attendees that answers questions, provides recommendations, and simplifies navigation.

2. Traditional App Features, Reinvented: All the essentials, from schedules to directories, now enhanced with AI-driven insights.

3. Event Help Desk Automation: Reduces the workload on event teams by automating responses to the majority of attendee questions.
