Attendee Hub
Attendee Assistant (AI Chatbot)
We're excited to introduce a cutting-edge, AI-powered virtual assistant, designed to elevate an attendee's event experience. Seamlessly integrated into the Attendee Hub experiences, this intelligent assistant will help capture attendee attention early on and drive continued engagement, ultimately enabling you to more effectively grow and retain your event audiences.
Attendees will be able to ask a series of questions based on seeded prompts that help them gather event-specific information and/or perform tasks such as building their schedule or discovering recommended content and attendees. The assistant will also understand each attendee and, therefore, provide personalized interactions to facilitate an efficient and enjoyable experience.
Qualifications: License Attendee Hub
Beta Program Dates (subject to change): Starting in May

AI Live Transcript & Moments/Notes capture
We are introducing 2 new Event App features to improve attendee engagement with in-person sessions.
Attendees will be able to view a live transcript of the session audio. This will help any attendees having difficulty understanding what is being said in a session.
With our AI-enhanced note generation, attendees can more easily capture notes from the content. An attendee simply taps a button, and the system will grab a small portion of the transcript and combine it with an AI-generated title and summary to create a note. This allows attendees to quickly and easily generate notes while maintaining focus on the session content.
Qualification: Event App customer

Group Packages
Advance Group Purchase is a new group registration workflow that offers flexibility and visibility to both planners and Group Managers and works with our existing registration solutions. This workflow sits outside of individual registration, and offers the following:
Group Managers can purchase group passes and manage their groups independent of their own registration process
Group Managers can purchase group passes without needing to identify and invite Group Members until later
Group Managers can self-serve invitations, cancel invitations, and monitor the registration status of Group Members
Group Managers can be invited specifically to this workflow, or planners can enable a self-serve sign-up workflow. Planners can also limit the visibility of group packages to specific segments of Group Managers.

Cross-Platform
Cross Event Insights
Cvent lacks an integrated tool that allows account users to gain holistic insights into the performance and success of their event programs. This hinders clients from comprehensively assessing and comparing the outcomes of their events, making it challenging to derive actionable insights and strategic decisions. With Cross Event Insights, planners will be able to view high-level metrics of all events in their accounts sliced along various dimensions like event type, location, etc. The planner will be able to create groups of events and view data relevant to that group. They will also be able to compare event groups to see which groups are performing better than others
Qualifications: License Cvent Registration
Beta Program Dates (subject to change): April 14 - May 6
