Quick answer

Sessionboard integrates with Swapcard via native continuous sync (integration_type: swapcard). Program teams run abstract review, speaker CRM, transcription, Attendee Hub, and advocacy on Sessionboard while registration and attendee operations stay on Swapcard.

Sound like your team?

Match your role to the job Sessionboard solves — program, content, or marketing attribution.

Registration owner

Registration stays on your incumbent platform — but program and speaker ops should not stop at CSV export.

Marketing ops

Another point tool mid-contract — Sessionboard public API keeps the program graph authoritative.

AV / production

Capture vendor locked for the season — write transcriptions and media back via API instead of re-keying.

Executive buyer

Rip-and-replace is a non-starter — you need displacement on program depth while registration stays put.

What Sessionboard delivers natively

Keep Swapcard mid-contract when you need to — Sessionboard owns call for papers, speaker operations, and content marketing on the program graph.

Swapcard — their lane

  • Registration and event operations

    Registration, event apps, and attendee engagement for enterprise and association events on Swapcard.

  • Attendee-facing event experience

    Buyer-standard UX and ops teams already trained on Swapcard.

  • Enterprise or portfolio contracts

    Multi-event programs standardized on Swapcard before program depth is evaluated.

Sessionboard — built in

  • Abstract and reviewer operations

    Multi-round review, COI, and chair self-service on the program graph.

  • Speaker CRM through show day

    Materials, bios, and agenda truth — not re-keyed from registration exports.

  • Content Marketing stack

    Transcription, Attendee Hub, Create, and Amplify on session records.

How the data flows

Program and session data live in Sessionboard — with optional sync to and from Swapcard.

  • Attendee registers on Swapcard — registration record stays the system of record.
  • Accepted speakers and sessions live in Sessionboard — program team works without CSV re-keying.
  • {'Native continuous sync (integration_type': 'swapcard) keeps event and session data aligned — confirm field map with sales engineering.'}
  • Live transcription and Attendee Hub deliver content from Sessionboard session records.

Native connector: Swapcard ↔ Sessionboard native continuous sync shipped (integration_type: swapcard in web-api). Program layer can start via import while registration remains on Swapcard.

Ask your AI about the event — not a spreadsheet export

Sessionboard connects to the assistants your team already uses through MCP (Model Context Protocol). Sessions, speakers, and agenda data stay in Sessionboard — Claude, ChatGPT, and Copilot read it live.

Native first — add their tool only if you must

Sessionboard already includes transcription, attendee experiences, and content marketing. A separate subscription makes sense only in narrow cases.

Keep Swapcard only when

  • Multi-year Swapcard contract is non-negotiable
  • Ops team standardized on Swapcard for registration or event delivery

Sessionboard alone — usually the answer

  • Abstract committee pain is the bottleneck — not registration UX
  • Need transcription, clips, and advocacy tied to program sessions
  • Speaker identity must persist across years on one CRM
