I've created a chatbot based on Web Summit’s 600+ events, 2.8k+ companies and 70k+ attendees.

It will make your life easier while you're there.
Use it to quickly:
– discover events you want to be at
– look for promising startups and their decks
– find interesting people in your domain
I've curated the data using AI agents by extracting structured data from web pages and reformatting cleanly. Otherwise, as you know garbage in garbage out.
So this improves the answer quality by a large margin. Let me know what you think.
Under the hood, each of these, e.g. chatbot and agents are using different models from OpenAI, 4.1, 5 etc.
Let me know what you think.
Enjoy the week, and send me a DM to connect in Lisbon.
