What is Congressio?

Congressio is an end-to-end platform for running academic and professional conferences: from the call for papers and peer review through registration, the program, on-site check-in, and post-event feedback — with AI assistance woven throughout.

Everything is organized around two objects:

• Organizations — your account/team. Billing, branding, members, and white-label settings live here.
• Events — a single conference (or an edition of a recurring one). Each event has its own forms, reviewers, program, registrations, and settings.

The lifecycle of an event

1. Create the event — from scratch, or with the guided setup wizard that drafts the whole thing from a short description.
2. Configure the call for papers, tracks, and review process (or skip these for a registration-only event).
3. Publish — the event goes from draft to active and becomes publicly visible.
4. Collect submissions and/or registrations.
5. Review & decide — assign reviewers, gather scores, and record decisions.
6. Run the event — build the program, add speakers, check attendees in.
7. Learn — read attendee feedback (with an AI digest) and analytics.

Finding your way around

Inside an event, the left sidebar is grouped by lifecycle stage: Set up, Papers, Program, Registration, Partners, and Insights. What you see depends on your role — an admin sees everything; a reviewer sees only what they need.
