Intrface

How It Works / The system

The engagement layer built around your event.

Intrface combines branded attendee software, connected hardware, active and passive tracking, and event data in one managed system. Keep your registration, ticketing, venue, creative, and production stack; we build around it.

The anatomy of a deployment
01 / THE ATTENDEE EXPERIENCE

Software

A connected experience

Attendees seamlessly join the experience in their mobile browser. Their profile connects their participation, connections, and progress.

Tools for a curated attendee journey

A branded event hub, event information, participation and engagement with incentives, and a personal view of what to do next.

Schedules and event maps

Drag-and-drop agendas link to speakers and performers. Interactive event maps help attendees find their way. Customize both and update them live.

A customized engagement and progression configuration

Intrface sets up the campaign, content and interaction rules: what each supported attendee action does and how it affects participation or progress.

Browser based and low friction

No mandatory app-store download. No more clunky event apps; once someone uses Intrface, they can just "tap in" through connected touchpoints.

02 / CONNECT PEOPLE AND PLACES TO THE SYSTEM

Hardware

Connected identity credentials

Intrface-powered wristbands, name tags or badges link to participant profiles directly. We select credentials based on the event, tracking needs and setup.

Beacons and touchpoints

Connected tap or discovery points associate activity with a configured place or experience.

Merch and swag

Intrface-powered gear creates a multi-use activation point attendees can carry beyond the event.

Zone-tracking equipment

Compatible credentials, RFID readers, and configured antennas can capture movement and dwell time on a per-user basis in selected zones.

Displays and POI tablets

Informational and interactive displays or touch screens that bring customizable leaderboards, check-in stations, or sponsor-specific content onto the floor.

03 / RECORDED ACTIVITY BECOMES EVENT DATA

Data

Interpreting the tracking data

Recorded engagement and activity can connect an attendee, a touchpoint or configured activity, and a specfiic time, creating a much clearer view of your event floor.

Get insights into your attendee's interests

An intentional check-in records participation. A passive zone detection records presence. See both and understand what held attendee attention.

Micro and macro views

The Intrface dashboard gives individual-level per-user journey data, along with combined views that show activity across the event and time.

Optimize and refine

Insights and suggestions pulled from previous events to help you optimize foot traffic, content timing and subject matter, and other elements of your event with a data-driven understanding.

ROI, for you and your sponsors

Get real granular detail on which speakers, performances, quests, POIs, exhibitors, or other content drove engagement best, and show concrete data to sponsors on the value they got from your event.

See Solana Summit reporting

We tailor the software, hardware, and data to your event’s attendee journey, venue, operational needs, and measurement goals.

How it comes together

The attendee-facing experience.

The actual flow will vary with every type of event, but generally Intrface-powered events lead an attendee through a progression of actions that enrich the experience and reward them on short loops.

Active participation

The attendee takes an action. The configured experience responds.

Active / Example 01

A seamless journey, from arrival to reward.

An Intrface-powered wristband: tappable POI stations, one-tap networking, easy VIP access, and tap-to-claim rewards.

  1. Attendees or staff register a wristband by simply tapping their phones to it in the branded browser experience.
  2. Tap the wristband on the station’s sensor to record a check-in at that point of interest.
  3. Use the wristband’s networking feature to connect with another attendee in a single tap.
  4. Staff tap the wristband to check the attendee's status, based on their ticket or profile.
  5. Tap the wristband at the prize counter. Staff confirm eligibility, points or status and award the prizes.
Data Examples

Which stations an attendee checked in at, who they connected with, their VIP access result, and which prizes they claimed.

Active / Example 02

Dicscovery-focused exploration.

An Intrface-connected badge, tappable discovery beacons, hidden secret codes, and a points-based scavenger hunt.

  1. Associate the badge to a profile with one tap and join the hunt in the event’s browser experience.
  2. Attendees hold a phone near the connected beacon to record the find.
  3. Find clues around the event or given by speakers and enter codes to complete quests and challenges.
  4. Completed activities earn points under the event’s rules and update the standings.
  5. The top-ranked participant finishes on the podium and receives the agreed reward. Give prizes to a few, or redeemable rewards for all who participate!
Data Examples

Which beacons an attendee found, which code quests they completed, how many points they earned, and their leaderboard position.

Active / Example 03

Take the experience with you.

Experience-integrated merchandise, trackable product-sampling, and a post-event follow-up quest to continue the conversation.

  1. Claim the item with one tap and link its supported interactions to an attendee profile.
  2. Use the merchandise’s tappable connection point to share a profile with another attendee.
  3. Visit the sampling station and complete its configured check-in or quest.
  4. An enabled push notification invites the attendee to re-engage after the event.
  5. Connect your accounts and share the experience on socials to complete the quest.
  6. Return to the event, a retail location, or the next activation, where staff confirm completion and hand over the reward.
Data Examples

Who an attendee connected with, their sampling check-in, whether they completed the social-share quest, and which reward they claimed.

01 of 03

Passive measurement

An ID credential is detected in a configured area. No browser or tap required for the attendee.

Passive / Example 01

See how traffic moves across the event.

An Intrface-enabled wristband or badge, with our readers and antennas in selected event zones.

  • Link the Intrface-powered badge to an attendee registration easily for individual-level user journeys.
  • Equipment in the arrival zone detects the ID credential as the attendee passes through. No phone interaction or tap is needed.
  • Captures entrance and exits from the stage zone. We analyze the data against the session schedule and interpret real-time attendance.
  • Attendee travels to the sponsor hall. Multiple zones can be set up in a single space, to get even more granular and prove which areas were most popular.
  • Using movement data alongside active interactions, we get a crystal clear picture of an attendees experience at your event.
Data Examples

Which attendee’s badge or wristband was detected, which zone they were in, dwell time, and the timestamp of each detection.

Passive / Example 02

From start line to final checkpoint.

A trek or run with compatible credentials and detection equipment at agreed checkpoints.

  1. Associate the participant’s compatible wristband with their record before setting off.
  2. Equipment at the first configured checkpoint detects the wristband as the participant passes through.
  3. The next checkpoint captures another detection of the same credential on the climb. No phone interaction is needed.
  4. A configured checkpoint on the ridge adds its own presence record and time to the participant’s journey.
  5. Equipment at the descent checkpoint captures the participant passing this point. Movement between checkpoints is not continuously tracked.
  6. A final course checkpoint detects the wristband before the participant reaches the finish area.
  7. A detection in the configured finish area joins the captured checkpoint records in the event view.
Data Examples

Which participant passed each checkpoint, when their wristband was detected, and whether they reached the finish checkpoint.

01 of 02

Active records participation.
Passive records presence in configured zones.

Use either or both. With the agreed identification setup, they contribute different records to the same event view. A zone detection does not automatically award points or trigger an interactive feature.

Practical fit

Configured and managed by Intrface.

Your team defines the experience. Intrface configures the software, prepares the connected hardware, and manages the agreed setup. We confirm venue requirements, staffing responsibilities, and reporting with you before the event.

See deployment packages and pricing
Can we keep our existing event tools?

Yes. Keep your registration, ticketing, event management, and production workflows. Intrface adds participation and measurement around them. We review any requested connection to another tool.

How do attendees access the browser experience?

Through a link, invite, QR code, or Intrface-powered touchpoint. There is no mandatory app-store download.

Can we use passive measurement on its own?

Yes. ID credentials can be detected in set zones without attendees opening the browser experience or performing a tap. We can link the ID to a registration profile with or without the branded event hub.

Do we need every type of hardware?

No. We choose the objects for the interactions and measurements you need. A phone-based experience may use connected tap points without wristbands. Passive tracking requires additional specialized hardware.

What does passive equipment need at the venue?

Once we agree on zones and the type of ID credential, we'll plan installation. We may need venue access, power, and a hardwired ethernet or dedicated wifi network. Venue conditions and installation layout determine coverage. Intrface prepares and tests the agreed setup.

How are identity and permissions handled?

See our privacy policy. Per-event, we agree on the information and opt-ins attendees see. Access, retention, and permitted follow-up are planned as part of the campaign, and attendees can choose to opt-out.

Who handles live support?

Intrface manages the agreed configuration, setup, testing, and live operational support. We confirm on-site coverage and the responsibilities of your team, venue, and other suppliers before the event. Staffing and venue support are part of that agreement.
