Event Communities

Every event deserves a living community

OpenTopics turns your events into real-time chat rooms, marketplaces, and communities — before, during, and after the event.

Core Features

One space. Every tool.

LIVE CHAT

Live Chat

Real-time messaging with replies, reactions, pinned messages, and slash commands. Organizers can lock, slow-mode, or mute disruptive users.

MARKETPLACE

Marketplace

Buy, sell, and swap within the event. List items with photos, negotiate offers, and pay securely through WANEXX escrow.

MINI GROUPS

Mini Groups

Self-organize into carpools, accommodation shares, afterparty plans, and custom sub-communities — all within the event.

COMMUNITY FEED

Community Feed

Post updates, create polls, like and comment. Organizers can pin announcements and control what features are enabled.

Power User

50+ slash commands at your fingertips

From creating polls to managing payments, everything is a command away. Type / and let the command palette guide you.
