Host a ThinkMatch event anywhere, including private events, and give guests a clearer path into conversation before they arrive.
For Event Hosts
Most event tools get guests there. ThinkMatch helps them connect.
ThinkMatch is built for the part other host tools leave out: helping each guest find someone they will genuinely enjoy meeting and giving them a natural way to begin. It does not compete with invitations, registration, ticketing, or schedules; it makes what happens between people at the event better.
Before the gathering, guests answer questions chosen by the host. ThinkMatch uses their responses to suggest compatible people or groups, explain their common ground, and offer conversation starters. Newcomers arrive with less uncertainty, more guests participate, and the event has a better chance of producing relationships that bring people back.
Promote an open event and see what brings people in
Every active open event includes an Event Promotion workspace. Create printable posters and table cards with tracked QR codes, copy ready-to-share social and email messages, provide a link for an event website, and compare visits with the participants who joined through each channel.
Use posters around a convention, conference, campus, workplace, or community venue.
Place QR table cards at registration desks, networking tables, session rooms, or exhibitor booths.
Share separate tracked links through social posts, email invitations, and the event website.
Monitor joined participants, questionnaire completions, group activity, and channel results from one place.
Choose a venue or organization type to see relevant benefits, examples, public-page details, and ways to introduce ThinkMatch to your community.
Why it makes an event better
Help every guest enter the room with confidence
ThinkMatch reduces the awkward search for someone to approach. Guests can see who they may enjoy meeting, what they share, and how to begin a conversation—so first-time attendees are less likely to remain on the sidelines.
We’ll help you get started
Scott Rothstein, ThinkMatch's creator, can personally help you plan the first use, prepare questions, and review the guest experience. Ask a question or arrange a short call—there is no charge.
Create more participation and a reason to return
Better introductions can improve the energy of the whole gathering. When people feel welcomed, join meaningful conversations, and leave knowing someone new, the event becomes more memorable and the community becomes easier to return to.
Manage a verified venue with Venue Workspaces
An authorized Venue Workspace manager can review privacy-safe participation and Roundtable history, compare tracked poster, table-card, social, email, and website outreach, create printable materials, and submit schedule or page requests to ThinkMatch. The workspace and manager account are free.
Participants sign in before joining. Email addresses and phone numbers are not exposed to other participants, and messages or video can remain inside ThinkMatch. Every eligible venue page already includes a rolling weekly gathering and poster; share it as-is or customize it. For a separate event, the host controls every question while keeping the registration and program already in use.
After matching
From compatible groups to real conversations
ThinkMatch helps people who have been grouped find one another before and during the event.

Each participant receives their group, common-ground insights, conversation starters, and a private link to connect.

Optional printable Profile Cards
Matching, group email, and secure chat work without printed cards. As an optional in-room aid, a wearable card can give each guest a summary line, five visual interest or topic highlights, and a personalized “Ask me” question.
