Made for tech meetups

The back-office for community-run events.

The parts of mink that tech meetups lean on most, in the order they tend to matter.

Call for speakers

Speaker profiles, talk submissions, an organiser review queue, and an accepted-talks display that publishes itself once you've made the calls.

Sponsors, matched

Perk packages with an organiser approval workflow, an AI sponsor-matchmaker that pairs your meetup with relevant local sponsors, and a sponsor concierge agent to work the lead.

QR check-in

Door-side check-in for the 47-of-80 versus 12-of-80 reality check. Attendance is the number your next sponsor pitch actually needs.

Slack + Discord webhooks

Outbound webhooks fire on event create and update, so your community channel has the announcement before you've finished writing the post.

Hybrid + virtual

Hybrid and virtual events carry a meeting URL and passcode all the way through the reminder flow, so remote attendees get the link without a scramble.

Email blasts

Over twenty Scriban email templates with group-level overrides, plus a free-form email blast to every attendee for the schedule change at 4 pm.

RSVP funnel + retention

Group growth, RSVP funnel, no-show rate, and retention analytics, with CSV export for the sponsor deck.

Series + calendar export

Quarterly or monthly cadence from one recurrence rule, and ICS export for events, groups, and whole series.

And the rest of the platform

Everything else comes with it.

Nothing above is an add-on tier of its own — it's the same platform every club on mink gets.
