From regional drive-ins to the national stage, Hangtight turns a packed agenda into a multi-day experience attendees actually navigate, and a community they remember long after they head home.
Purpose-built for Residence Life and student housing conferences, not a generic event app bent to fit. Here is what your RAs and your team get.
01The agenda
A schedule they live in
Every session, room, and track in one live agenda that's always current. RAs star what they're attending and get pushed the second anything moves, so no one's chasing a printed booklet gone stale by noon.
✔Color-coded by category across the whole program
✔Tracks help RAs navigate hundreds of options
✔Each RA stars sessions to build a personal agenda
✔Instant push notifications the moment anything moves
02Your path
One conference, many custom paths
Delegates arrive with different roles and interests. Tracks organize a busy program into clear paths, so each attendee can build an agenda around the sessions most relevant to them.
✔Curated paths for different delegate interests
✔Sessions keep their category and can carry a track
✔A program each attendee can navigate with confidence
03Your people
Everything you need, all in one place
Access your session details, handouts, and coordinator in the app, so everything stays organized between sessions.
✔Session time, room, and track at a glance
✔Downloadable handouts and resources
✔Add any session to your personal schedule
04Find your people
Social matching that breaks the ice
The hardest part of any conference is walking in not knowing anyone. RAs answer a few quick questions, and Hangtight ranks the people they have the most in common with, so a 1,000-person conference feels personal from day one.
✔Interest matching ranks RAs by shared answers
✔You write the questions, fun or practical, no free text
✔Each match shows exactly what they have in common
✔Give first-time delegates an easier conversation starter
05The announcements
Cut through the noise
Announcements sent straight to text — no app-checking required. Every attendee gets it instantly, right where they're already looking.
✔No group texts, no lost emails
✔Delivered directly to each attendee's phone
✔Full announcement history in one place
✔Send to everyone or just the people who need to know
06Chats
Where your conference comes alive
One group chat for your entire event, with the tools to keep hundreds of attendees connected and organized. Build community before anyone even arrives.
✔Subchats to organize by session, region, or track
✔Pin important messages so nothing gets lost
✔Polls to gather feedback or make decisions fast
✔No switching between apps, it all lives in Hangtight
