Changelog

API and MCP access is now available on every active paid HeySummit plan, including Starter and Growth.

That means more teams can connect their own tools through the HeySummit API, or connect compatible AI assistants through MCP to inspect events, spot setup gaps, and preview supported event changes before approving them.

You can find your API token and MCP server details under Setup > API, MCP & Webhooks. The MCP connection guide covers supported clients, permissions, example prompts, and current limits.

Zoom meetings and webinars can now play directly on your HeySummit talk pages, so attendees can join without leaving your event.

When setting up a talk with Zoom Meeting or Zoom Webinar, choose Embed in HeySummit under how attendees should join. You can still choose Open externally whenever you prefer attendees to join through Zoom.

HeySummit continues to register attendees with Zoom behind the scenes, giving each attendee the correct access while keeping the live experience on your event page.

You can now inspect and update your event pages through the HeySummit MCP, using the same Page Builder capabilities available in the dashboard.

Connected tools can list editable pages, inspect page content and layout, see available blocks and settings, and preview changes before applying them. Supported updates include adding, editing, moving and copying blocks, changing page settings, deleting blocks, resetting inherited pages and duplicating pages.

Every change stays scoped to the selected event and uses preview and confirmation safeguards. Image uploads, copying blocks between events and staff-only global template controls remain in the HeySummit dashboard.

Custom email sender setup now includes a clear four-step guide covering sender details, email verification, domain authentication, and getting ready to send.

HeySummit shows the exact DNS records needed for DKIM, an SPF-aligned MAIL FROM domain, and DMARC, with copyable values and status checks directly in the dashboard.

Open Manage Senders from the Emails page to update a sender, review its progress, resend or confirm verification, and see what still needs attention before using it for event emails.

Workspaces give you one shared home for related events, whether you run an annual summit, a webinar series, or a broader programme of events under the same brand.

Create a workspace from the event switcher, then add new events or move existing ones into it. For each event, choose whether it uses a path beneath the workspace address, such as events.acme.com/annual-summit, or keeps its own dedicated address, such as event.annualsummit.com. Either way, it remains a complete HeySummit event with its own landing pages, registration, talks, and reporting.

A workspace can stay private when you only need it to organise events inside your account, or you can publish a branded landing page with your logo, description, and social links. The page gives attendees and visitors one place to discover your brand, browse upcoming and past events, and subscribe for future announcements. Subscribers are notified when you publish a new event in that workspace.

This is our first step towards making HeySummit a better home for every event your organisation runs, bringing them together under one recognisable brand without forcing them all into the same format or public setup.

You can now choose exactly which speakers and talks appear in the Speakers Grid and Featured Talks blocks in Page Builder, even before talk times have been added to your agenda.

Use the new content selector in either block to choose specific active speakers or talks from your event. This makes it possible to promote your lineup while the schedule is still being finalised.

Existing blocks continue to choose content automatically, and you can switch between automatic and specific selection whenever you need.

It is now easier to share event blog posts and turn readers into registered attendees.

Every published post includes quick sharing for X, Facebook, LinkedIn and Bluesky, plus email and copy-link options. Public posts also include an event call to action at the bottom, helping readers return to the event or registration page.

Readers can subscribe to receive an email when a new post is published. Organisers can see the current subscriber count, and the publishing confirmation shows how many subscribers will be notified alongside quick options to preview or share the post.

Custom featured images now appear in the article and in social sharing previews, using appropriately sized versions for faster page loading.

You can now add an Attendee Map to any event page from the PageBuilder Components tab, giving attendees a visual view of where your event community is joining from.

Anonymous mode is enabled by default. It displays location markers without names or attendee totals, and groups smaller city results at region or country level to protect attendee privacy.

You can also switch the component to named mode. Attendee names will only appear when those attendees have explicitly opted in from their profile.

When the component is added, HeySummit prepares the available location data for that event in the background and keeps new attendee locations up to date.
