What is Gatherly?

Gatherly is a browser-based virtual event platform that aims to replicate the social and interactive qualities of in-person gatherings. Rather than treating virtual events as passive webinars, it provides customisable spaces where attendees can move around, network, and engage through features like spatial audio, live polling, Q&A sessions, and games. The platform handles events ranging from small team meetings to conferences with up to 10,000 participants. Since it runs entirely in your web browser, there is no software to install; attendees simply click a link and join. Gatherly integrates with popular tools such as Zapier and Eventbrite, making it straightforward to connect with your existing event management workflow. The platform includes built-in analytics to track engagement and attendance patterns.

Pros & cons

Advantages

  • Easy access for attendees; no software installation or downloads needed to participate
  • Encourages genuine networking through spatial features rather than static attendee lists
  • Integrates with common event tools like Eventbrite and Zapier, reducing setup friction
  • Works at scale; can accommodate large conferences without degrading the interactive experience

Limitations

  • Relies on stable internet connection and modern browsers; attendees with older devices or poor connectivity may struggle
  • Spatial networking and interactive features work best with engaged participants; passive attendees may find it overwhelming compared to traditional webinars
  • Customisation and management of large events may require training or support; the interface has more complexity than basic webinar platforms
