How live Chat works
1. Set up your Chat
Create a Chat session and choose how you want to moderate it: review all messages, filter clickable links, or block restricted words automatically to keep conversations friendly and on-topic.
2. Embed Chat into your event
For virtual or hybrid events, add Chat directly to your event website or use our integrations so attendees can chat alongside live streams, webinars, and watch parties.
3. Let conversations take over
Attendees join the Chat and jump right in: posting messages, replying in threads, reacting, and connecting around the live event experience.
Built for real-time event chat
One chat, wherever your audience is
Watch and chat in one place
Embed live Chat next to your video stream on your event page or platform, so attendees can watch and join the conversation in one place.
Bring everyone together
Onsite audiences can scan a QR code or join through your event app, bringing everyone into the same live conversation.
Profiles ready from the start
When connected to your event platform, attendees join with profiles ready, making participation smooth, identifiable, and easy to follow up later.
Chat isn't Q&A — and that's a good thing
Chat and Q&A play different roles. Chat keeps conversations flowing in real time, while Q&A helps important questions rise to the top and get answered.
The best part? You don't have to choose — Pigeonhole Live gives you both.
Fast, open conversations
Chat is built for spontaneous, fast-moving discussions. Attendees can react in the moment, share thoughts, reply in threads, and connect with others as the event unfolds.
Questions that deserve attention
Q&A gives audience questions a dedicated space to be read, upvoted, discussed and moderated. Speakers and moderators can easily prioritise what matters and answer questions more effectively.
What you can do with live Chat
Global town halls
Employees can react and engage freely in Chat, while leadership focuses on the most important questions surfaced through Q&A — creating an open yet structured dialogue at scale.
Workshop sessions
Across conferences with hundreds of sessions and workshops, run dedicated Chat, Q&A, and Polls for each one — so every conversation stays relevant, organised, and easy to follow.
High-profile product launches
As you unveil the next latest product, audiences react, share thoughts, and discuss features in live Chat in real time — while key questions are captured in Q&A and answered by your team.
Trusted by teams who want real engagement
Pigeonhole Live made our town halls more open and constructive.
Their interactive tools kept feedback flowing and turned the sessions into truly engaging conversations.
Using Pigeonhole Live is a real game changer for us, especially in comparison to earlier events where people would stand up and ask questions via a microphone.
At The Meetings Show Asia Pacific, our collaboration with Pigeonhole Live allowed us to engage meeting planners across three stages at once—seamlessly, dynamically, and in real time.
Our previous platforms were quite limiting...but with Pigeonhole Live's vast array of options, we've seen a significant boost in engagement both with and among our attendees.
Pigeonhole Live proved to be an invaluable partner, making it effortless to engage audiences and amplify diverse voices.
Pigeonhole Live has made our regional town halls more inclusive, accessible, and engaging.
