— Event agenda management
Plan every stage on one timeline, collect speaker bios without chasing, and publish a schedule you can embed on your own website. The same content then powers your attendee assistant on WhatsApp.
— Who it's for
Running a programme usually means a master spreadsheet, a shared folder of headshots, a website someone else updates and a lot of email. Every change has to be copied by hand into several places.
Backchannel keeps the agenda, speakers and sponsors in one place. Change it once, and the public schedule, the embeds on your website and the assistant's answers all follow.
— Workflow
Upload a CSV or Excel file. Stages, speakers and session types are matched or created for you, so you don't start from a blank page.
See every stage side by side on one timeline. Drag sessions between rooms, resize them to change times and get a warning about speaker clashes.
Share one sign-up link, or send a private, expiring invite. Speakers add their own bio and headshot and appear in your speaker list.
Publish a schedule page or embed the agenda, speakers and sponsors on your site in timetable, list or card style, with your logo, colours and font.
— Scenario
A keynote moves from 10:00 to 11:30 the week before the event. In Backchannel you drag the session to its new slot and the timetable warns you if the speaker now clashes with a panel.
The embedded schedule on your website updates. Attendees who ask the WhatsApp assistant get the new time. Nobody has to republish a PDF.
Your team can share the work too. Invite managers to update speakers, sponsors, agenda and FAQs, while admin-only settings such as WhatsApp stay with admins.
— FAQ
Backchannel is the one your attendees actually open — and the last one your team will ever need to set up.
