Ryan Jenkins Speaking using Rivet AI Powered Event Connections

Connection Draws Attendees to Your Event, but Are They Experiencing It?

Using the neuroscience of compatibility, Rivet will intelligently and instantly connect your attendees with someone they are scientifically proven to develop a strong bond with.

Isolation can negatively affect not just individuals but your entire event – and just because you get people in the same room doesn’t mean they’re connected to one another. Whether in-person or virtual, your attendees don’t have to feel disconnected.

Forge real, one-to-one connections powered by AI and backed by science.

Rivet’s award-winning algorithm:

+ Smartly matches event attendees or colleagues
+ Sparks new connections, friendships, and mentorships
+ Boosts belonging, engagement, and satisfaction

No set-up or implementation required. We handle everything. You have enough on your plate.
