Luma vs CommonAR

DISCOVER EVENTS NEAR YOU Find popular upcoming tech, crypto, wellness, and social events around you. After registering for an event, you can easily share it with your friends or on your socials. At the event, pull up your event ticket or Apple Wallet pass for seamless entry. CHAT WITH (NEW) FRIENDS Don’t be that "Ugh, want to add me on IG / LinkedIn?" person. If you attend an event with someone, you can easily look them up and chat with them right from within Luma. HOST AN EVENT Host delightful events with ease. Create a beautiful event page, send email and SMS invites, collect registrations, and chat with your guests. With Luma taking care of reminders, ticketing, checking in and more, you can focus your full attention on the event itself. BEAUTIFUL EVENT PAGES You can create a beautiful event page in just a few seconds. Just choose a cover image, name, location and time for your event. We’ll take care of the rest. For cover images, you can choose from our fun gallery of party posters, bbq invites, happy hour photos and many more. SELL TICKETS You can create a new event, start selling tickets, and market your event all within Luma. It takes just a few minutes to connect your bank account and then you’ll receive next day payment as guests buy tickets. SMS AND EMAIL INVITES Now you’ve created your event — who is going to come? You can sync your contacts and easily send a mass SMS invite message. In addition, Luma makes it incredibly easy to invite past guests again and to send email invites. CHECK IN GUESTS If you want to track attendance, you can check in guests with our built in QR code scanner and check in system. Guests will be able to show their QR code to scan in — or you can look them up by their name or email. You can add cohosts to your event who can also check in guests and manage the event together. SUBSCRIBE TO LOCAL CALENDARS From running clubs to AI calendars, discover fun events and clubs around you. Keep up with their events and make new friends.

HOW DOES IT WORK? CommonAR uses augmented reality and facial recognition to overlay profiles of fellow attendees in your immediate space. Either flip the camera inwards and "take a selfie" with someone you just met or flip it outwards and scan around. For every attendee you encounter, match data will be populated by AI using both of your profiles. This way you can steer conversations in the most meaningful direction. You also get all their provided socials in one go for manual reference and to reach out after. WHY USE US? We help you create the most productive events possible. As everyone knows, gaining footing in a new room is difficult. This becomes especially difficult at networking events where you are met with strict time constraints, a desire to build many connections, and limited social cohesion/atmosphere. Networking events need a better cold start to reach the level of efficiency attendees desire. It is currently impossible to walk away from an event with 100 meaningful contacts and why exactly you should connect with them. That's where we come in. Instead of spending 30 minutes grasping at straws for conversation starters like the weather, we get people talking about things they have in common quickly. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST? Free for hosts. Free for users. Free for everybody. We plan to stay totally free while we expand our offerings in pursuit of accelerating meaningful in-person interaction. HOW DO I GET STARTED?
