Eventil [1] is a (yet another) website that lists tech events [2] and their participants: attendees, speakers & organizers [3]. You can filter events by topic [4] & location [5]. You can find events where Call for Papers (CFP) is open [6]. Speakers can list their talks [7] along with slides & video [8]. Users can access this data via a RESTful API [9] as JSON (I'm working on GraphQL implementation). If you're an event organizer, you can create an event page and enable CFP form. You can follow people to see their event activity (as attendee, speaker or organizer) as weekly email.<p>It's a side-project. I've been working on it almost 2 years. In my spare time I organize various tech events myself. I'm most proud of PolyConf [10]. I've created Eventil to solve my own problems with tech event organization. There are many organizer features that help me be more efficient. My focus is on speaker profiles. I'd like to help fellow organizers out to find interesting speakers. I'd like to also help tech speakers easily find related events.<p>A business model is being built around my insider knowledge. It could result in consulting projects through the platform. This is already the case to some extend. Eventually it could be automated.<p>The project is in alpha stage. There are bugs, but there's also a consistent cycle of weekly iterations. Please bear with me. I usually fix everything quickly. I'd be happy to have your feedback. You can also submit issues via GitHub [11]<p>[1]: <a href="https://eventil.com/" rel="nofollow">https://eventil.com/</a>

I don't see enough signaling that I'll get anything of value for clicking on your "pill button" and giving my contact info. I more than half-expect to get spammed frequently about talks in places where I don't live (London) or about topics I don't care about (JavaScript).
So, looking at the list of cities, it’s hard to find anything since they are not sorted.<p>Also, they don’t seem to recognize that Montreal is the same as Montrèal. Or Brussels is the same as Brussel, and also the same as Bruxelles.<p>I haven’t looked any further.
Could be a great alternative to Lanyrd. I feel like Lanyrd abandoned and there are a lot of spammy content now.<p>@zaiste I created <a href="https://techevents.co/" rel="nofollow">https://techevents.co/</a> - an aggregator for tech events and will be launching it next week. I would like to integrate it with eventil.com once it finished. Are you planning to have some basic public API?
That's great. Looks like a good alternative to <a href="http://lanyrd.com/" rel="nofollow">http://lanyrd.com/</a> Lanyrd got acquired by eventbrite and is stagnating. Last week the site was down for a half a day.
