ConfBeaconThe events world is pitch dark.
We hold the light.
Every conference in your field in one place — watched daily, checked by an editor before anything changes, and ranked for what you actually need. With the reason on every line.

Programmes change the week before
Speakers drop, stages move, prices jump. The conference website is the last to admit it.
“Top 50 events” lists aren't about you
They rank by the author's reach. Your market, your role and your budget never appear in them once.
So the call gets made late and blind
Early bird expires, flights double, and the team goes wherever it went last year.
Three steps from dark to a route
Set it once. The beacon stays lit all year.
Tell us where you're headed
Your market, region, role and budget. It takes a few minutes, and every answer is a filter you can change later — not a form you fill in once and never see again.
The beacon sweeps
Discovery walks known sources looking for events we don't have yet. The nightwatch re-reads pages already in the catalogue and files a proposal the moment a date, price or venue moves.
A person decides, then you hear about it
No machine writes to the catalogue on its own. A change reaches your list once an editor has cleared it — which is why every field can tell you its source and the day it was last checked.
A score that shows its work
You never get a number without a reason. Every part of a score is a row you can open — and every weight behind it is a setting in the admin, not a constant compiled into the product.
When something moves, you hear it
A keynote cancels, a second CFP wave opens, the price goes up. The watcher catches it on its next pass, an editor clears it, and it lands in your inbox — not on LinkedIn a month later.
Every record says when it was last checked
Fresh, ageing or stale is a field on the record, not a feeling. Anything that goes quiet for too long gets queued for another look automatically.
5 worlds, one map
Every vertical brings its own sources and its own editors. A crypto signal is not measured the way a payments one is.
Data somebody stands behind
Machines collect, editors decide. Every change to an agenda, a price or a venue passes a human before it changes your list. That is why we can tell you not just what is true, but since when and on whose word.
Look at the catalogueQuestions we get most
Official event sites and their agendas, plus aggregators we have vetted. Every field carries its source and the date it was last verified — and you can see both.
A calendar shows everything and leaves the judgement to you. ConfBeacon ranks, and tells you why a line sits where it sits.
Tell us. A vertical here is a taxonomy entry plus its sources and its editor — opening one is configuration, not a release, so it does not wait for a deploy.
No. Organisers cannot buy a better position, and they do not get to see what you looked at or decided.
Stop guessing where to go.
Create an account, tell us what you work on, and the catalogue starts sorting itself around you.
