Venue WiFi is unreliable.
Your app shouldn't be.

Unlike web-based wrappers, HEPCon is native and offline-first. The entire agenda, abstracts, and maps are stored locally on the device.

  • Works in basements and lecture halls
  • Search that works offline
  • Background sync when connection returns

Onboarding & Event Operations

Your scientific committee is busy. Let us handle the data complexity.

Data Concierge

We connect to your existing agenda/abstract workflow (API or export). We handle abstract book generation, fix timetable conflicts, and ensure the schedule looks right. (Sources: Indico, EasyChair, ConfTool, Confex, OpenConf, or a spreadsheet.)

Live Support

During the conference, our engineers are on standby. If a room changes or a projector fails, we can push an instant alert to all attendees for you.

Staff Training

We train your volunteers and session chairs on how to use the Q&A and voting features effectively.

How It Works

From Kickoff to Keynote


A simple, transparent process designed for busy academic organizers.

1
Kickoff & Sync

We read your programme from its link (Indico, EasyChair, ConfTool, Confex) — or import your export (OpenConf, EDAS, OpenReview, Microsoft CMT) — and load your initial agenda structure.

2
Branding & Setup

We apply your conference logo, colors, and sponsors to the mobile and web apps.

3
Validation

You review the app. We perform a full data integrity check to ensure no missing abstracts.

Launch

Your event goes live inside the HEPCon app — already on the App Stores — and we provide QR codes and links for your attendees.

Platform Capabilities

Beyond Service Delivery: The Discovery Layer

Every HEPCon event — regardless of plan tier — ships with the same Discovery layer: semantic search across the whole programme graph, parallel-session conflict detection, a programme change log, cross-event speaker resolution, and an opt-in AI assistant. These are platform capabilities, not services that need to be assembled separately.

FAQ

Common Questions


How long does it take to launch?

Inside the HEPCon app, we can launch in as little as 48 hours. A dedicated branded app is available by special arrangement and adds App-Store review time (typically 2–4 weeks).

Do you handle the App Store submission?

There is nothing to submit — the HEPCon app is already published, so your event is live the moment it's configured. For the special-arrangement branded app, we handle the entire Apple/Google submission and certificate process; you never need a developer account.

Is the data stored in Europe?

Yes. Our primary servers are located in Frankfurt, Germany (Google Cloud, region europe-west3), fully compliant with GDPR. We can also deploy to US or Asian regions upon request.

Can we pay via Purchase Order?

Absolutely. We work with major universities and research labs (CERN, DESY, Fermilab) and accept Purchase Orders and bank transfers.
