Who else is here
The attendee directory is a searchable list of the people at the event, with a full profile behind each name. It exists because the most common question at a conference is not on the schedule, and the honest answer is that half the value of the room is knowing who is in it.
What this looks like in the product
Two search fields rather than filters, because the recall an attendee has is a fragment of a name or a company.
- Search by name or company
- The two things an attendee actually remembers about someone they half-met.
- Full profiles
- Title, company, bio, interests, links and a photo, every field the attendee's own choice.
- Per-attendee visibility
- One switch in the Me tab removes a person from the directory without removing them from the event.
- Connection requests
- Request from a profile when scanning in person is not an option.
- Per-event switch
- The whole directory turns off for events where a roster should not be browsable.
The directory
- Search by name
- Search by company
- A profile: title, bio, interests, links
- Request a connection
- Your own visibility switch in Me
The two questions a directory answers
Attendees use a directory for two things, and they arrive at both of them at different times of day.
The first is reconnaissance, usually the night before or over breakfast. Is anyone from that company here. Is the person who wrote the thing I read here. It is a decision about how to spend the day, and it is the reason someone opens the app before the event has started.
The second is repair. They met someone at the coffee break, they remember a first name and a company, and they did not get a card. The directory is the only route back to that person, and it is why searching by company matters as much as searching by name.
Everything else a directory could do — recommendations, matchmaking, suggested people — is a different product, and event67 does not attempt it. The list is searchable, and a person decides who to approach.
Visibility belongs to the attendee, not the organizer
An organizer's roster and a public directory are different objects, and treating them as the same one is how a conference ends up apologising to a general counsel.
In event67 an attendee has a single switch in the Me tab that removes them from the directory. They stay at the event, they keep their agenda, they can still scan someone in the corridor and connect. They simply stop being browsable by strangers. Every profile field beyond their name is optional too, so appearing in the directory does not oblige anyone to publish a biography.
The organizer sets the default and can turn the whole directory off per event. What the organizer cannot do is override an individual's choice to be hidden, and that asymmetry is deliberate.
| Other attendees | The organizer | |
|---|---|---|
| Name and profile of a listed attendee | Yes | Yes |
| A hidden attendee's profile | No | On their own roster |
| Email address | No | Yes, for people they invited |
| Who connected with whom | Their own connections only | Aggregate engagement only |
What the organizer controls
- Whether the directory exists
- A per-event switch. Board meetings, regulated industries and anything where the guest list itself is confidential turn it off.
- The default visibility
- Set for the event, then overridable by each attendee for themselves.
- The roster
- The organizer sees everyone they invited, including hidden attendees and their email addresses, because that is their own list.
- Moderation reach
- Profiles are attendee-authored content, and the console actions taken on them go through the same approvals queue as photos and questions.
What the directory is not
- No AI matchmaking, no suggested connections and no compatibility scoring.
- No meeting scheduler, no calendar holds, no 1:1 booking with meeting-room assignment.
- No messaging between attendees. Chat in event67 is admin-to-admin only; attendees connect and take it off-platform.
- No exhibitor or sponsor lead lists built from directory browsing.
- No export of the directory by attendees. The roster export is the organizer's, for the people they invited.
The absence of attendee messaging is a deliberate scope choice rather than a missing feature. Connections exchange the details people chose to publish; the conversation then happens by email, on LinkedIn, or in the corridor, which is where it was going to happen anyway.
Where a directory changes an event
Events where people came for the room: association annual meetings, industry summits, user conferences where customers want to find each other. Multi-company internal events, where three regional sales teams meeting once a year cannot put a face to a name.
It is close to useless at a forty-person internal workshop where everybody already knows everybody, and switching it off there is the right call rather than a lost feature.

What it costs
- Free up to 50
- activated attendees, on one live event
- $5
- per activated attendee beyond 50
- $4,750
- the most one event can ever cost, whatever happens past 1,000
Activated means the person claimed their invite and opened the app. Not when you import them, not when the invite is delivered, and not if they register and stay home.
Questions people actually ask
Can an attendee stay off the directory?
Yes, with one switch in the Me tab. They remain fully part of the event, keep their agenda, and can still connect by scanning in person. They simply stop appearing when other attendees browse or search. The organizer sets the event default; they cannot override an individual's choice to be hidden.
Can attendees message each other in the app?
No. Chat in event67 is admin-to-admin: the organizing team's own channel with reactions, replies and an audit trail. Attendees connect, exchange the details they chose to publish, and continue the conversation wherever they normally would.
What can other attendees see about me?
Your name, and whichever of title, company, bio, interests, links and photo you filled in. Not your email address. Organizers see the email addresses of people they invited, because that is how they invited you.
Is the directory searchable by company?
Yes, and it is the search that gets used most. The realistic recall after a coffee break is a first name and a company, and searching on either finds the profile.
Can we turn the directory off entirely?
Yes, per event. Some events should not have a browsable guest list at all, and that is a switch rather than a support request.
