The full journey

Four flows. One operational rhythm.

VenuePulse is built around the exact sequence events actually follow: setup, registration, access control, and post-event insight. Each flow hands data to the next with zero duplication.

Issue invite QRs for self-serve or import guests from CSV and print branded passes.

Flow C

Verify

Guards scan a pass and get immediate allowed or denied feedback with full audit trail.

Flow D

Mode-aware operations

Run fully digital or semi digital without data loss.

Keep one platform even when event format changes. Flip the tenant mode and VenuePulse adapts dashboard actions and venue tooling while preserving all historical forms and submissions.

Fully digital

Guest self-serve flow

  • Token consumed on successful submit
  • Best for high-scale open events

Semi digital

  • Bulk import guest lists from CSV
  • Print branded badges with QR tokens
  • Best for curated private events
Capability Fully digital Semi digital

FAQ

Questions teams ask before launch.

Short answers to the things operators care about most: rollout speed, compatibility, and control.

Can we start semi digital and switch later? +

Yes. Mode switching is reversible and does not delete existing forms or submissions.

Does door scan require a native app? +

No. The venue workflow runs in the browser with webcam and image-upload scanning paths.

How is tenancy enforced? +

Tenant IDs are enforced in dependencies, service-layer filters, and relational constraints.

Can mobile apps consume the same backend? +

Yes. Every public flow has JSON API parity and an OpenAPI document for code generation.
