The challenge

AI-me helped a 550-attendee symposium answer attendee questions quickly, reduce help-desk load, and make the event feel guided rather than overwhelming.

The symposium needed a better way to help delegates navigate sessions, logistics, sponsors, and event discovery without relying on queues, printouts, or staff bottlenecks.

Location: Sydney, Australia

Approach

What was done to make the AI useful.

Mapped the event journey across attendees, sponsors, and organisers.

Configured a conference-specific assistant around approved content, discovery flows, and practical FAQs.

Designed the experience to surface relevant sessions and sponsor moments without making the event feel over-engineered.

Impact

The measurable signal that makes the story worth citing.

92% engagement
1,007 questions answered in 3-5 seconds
~30 hours of help-desk time saved

AI-me became the default digital guide for the event and showed how AI can improve complex live experiences when the design stays useful, fast, and human-centred.
