ON THE EVENT DATE

Realtime AI for live events

A digital layer over the day you already run: live takeaways, an AI notetaker and a branded eventsite - so every session reaches everyone who was there, and everyone who could not be.

THE EVENTSITE

The eventsite builds itself while you run the event

One branded place for the whole programme: what was said on every stage, searchable, minutes after it was said. Gated by the Event Code only your attendees hold.

What your audience gets on the day

Ask anything, mid-conference

Attendees put questions to sessions they were never in, while the day is still running.

Takeaways before the applause fades

The key points from a session are on the site before the next one has finished.

Speaker recaps, ready to post

Every speaker gets a recap of their own session and is told the moment it goes live.

Every stage, in parallel

Multi-track is not an upgrade. All your stages are captured at the same time.

Live captions in 160+ languages

Your audience follows along in the language they actually think in.

One hub, not a folder of files

Programme, stages, insights and slides in a single branded place.

Live at your event

Displays with real-time insights

Floor-standing screens outside every room show what is happening inside it right now – the session, the speaker, and the insights the room is generating as it speaks. Attendees pick their next session on evidence rather than on a printed grid.

StreamWerk live event capability

Live translation and captions

Every session is captioned and translated as it is spoken, in more than 160 languages, on the attendee’s own phone. No headsets to hand out, no interpreter booths to book, and nobody left following along at half speed.

StreamWerk live event capability

Ask the speaker

Questions arrive from the floor throughout the talk, get grouped and ranked by the room itself, and reach the speaker as a short prioritised list. The best question wins on merit instead of on who got to the microphone first.

StreamWerk live event capability

An event programme that builds itself

Submitted talks are matched on topic, speaker and room size, then laid out across your stages automatically. What used to occupy a programme committee for weeks takes an afternoon – and it re-plans in minutes when a speaker drops out.

StreamWerk live event capability

Every stage, captured at once

All rooms are captured in parallel, not just the keynote hall. Multi-track coverage stops being an upgrade you buy room by room and becomes the default your whole event runs on.

Speaker recaps before they leave the building

Minutes after a session ends, the speaker gets their own summary: key takeaways, quotable moments and a clip, ready to share. Your speakers become your best distribution channel while the event is still running.

See it running on a real event

The day you just scrolled through is real. Pick a date and we will walk you through a live eventsite, session by session - all of it from one conference, captured once.

NOTHING EXTRA ON YOUR RUN SHEET

It adds one line to your production plan

Point a phone at the stage, or hand us the feed from the sound desk. No crew to hire, no hardware to rent, and nothing for your AV supplier to re-quote.

ON THE DAY

Press record. That's it.

An audio line in and your synced programme. The capture starts when the day does.

THROUGHOUT

Reviewed before anything goes out

AI agents check every insight, and you stay the editor. Nothing is published behind a speaker's back.

FAQs about the event day

What do we need to set up on the day?

Sync your event programme and press record when the day starts. An audio line in - no production crew, no extra hardware.

Does it work across multiple stages at once?

Yes. Every stage is captured in parallel, and speakers are automatically assigned to the right sessions.

Won't free summaries stop people from attending?

No - the eventsite is FOMO by design. Anonymous visitors see just enough to want in; the depth unlocks with the Event Code only attendees hold.

Do our speakers have to approve the recording?

Each speaker is notified when their session is ready, and change requests go back in one click. You stay the editor - nothing is published behind anyone's back.

Is it GDPR compliant?

Yes - StreamWerk is European and GDPR-native, with EU data residency, speaker consent flows and multi-language support.

And that is only the day itself

Everything above happens while your event is running. From the morning after, the same capture becomes a knowledge hub that keeps working all year.
