Conferences API

Global Conferences & Much More, All in One Place

Multiple data streams in just one API

Age means nothing when it comes to ongoing education. In fact, there’s an argument out there that the older you get, the more you need to learn. That’s why global conferences are so popular. But whether you’re planning to register for an upcoming conference or your business is in the services industry and could be affected by local, regional, national or international meetings and forums, it’s a hassle trying to collate them all then figuring out which ones you should pay attention to. Until now. PredictHQ’s intuitive and easy-to-use API collates, aggregates and maintains local, national and global conferences based on time and date, then tells you at a glance what ones are likely to be most important to your business objectives. Use our API to return details about thousands of events that could impact your business, or download and store your own local copy of events, so you can use them for data modeling and analysis, or enriching your own dataset to produce and sell derivative works. Now, that’s what we call smart.

Ranked Conferences

Not sure what events matter most? Don’t worry - we’ve sorted them for you

CES, SXSW, TEDx, Forbes Women's Summit … Whatever the genre, forums, meetings and conferences have the potential to increase (or decrease) demand on your business. But there’s nothing worse than realizing you’ve missed an opportunity to leverage a local event, or wondering why you have so many customers and not enough staff. With PredictHQ, you can use the API to find events like conferences that could impact your business, both close to home and further afield. Our ranking algorithm that we created then assigns a numerical rank to every single event, so you can filter from major to minor events, making it easy to see well in advance what local, national and global conference are on the horizon, thereby giving you plenty of time to plan for the ups and downs that come with them.

We don’t just tell you about millions of scheduled and unscheduled events happening all over the world, though. We take the guesswork out of your planning by telling you what events are the most important and therefore most important to pay attention to and prepare for. PredictHQ has already aggregated, cleansed and ranked global conference events into one single API making it easy for you to use our data in your own customized algorithms and data models and apply to your own business.

PredictHQ’s RESTful API communicates with any platform. You can query multiple event categories and locations simultaneously and get JSON responses. And to make integrations even easier PredictHQ currently has Python and JavaScript SDKs available. We use the OAuth 2.0 standard for authentication, and access tokens are required to grant application access to the tools available on the API. Developers won’t need to spend precious time capturing, cleaning and maintaining disparate data sources. Plus, our API is versioned for easier maintenance. PredictHQ does all the heavy lifting for them so they can focus on their core platform - and the next time an important seminar is taking place near your business your marketing, sales and decision making teams are prepared.

Making Flat Event Data Intelligent

One conference is not like the other

PredictHQ’s API isn’t just the source of business-changing information; it practically makes business decisions for you too. PredictHQ' data processing pipeline pulls hundreds of data streams and third party APIs across more than 18 categories (and counting) into one foolproof information source (we even go old-school when it’s necessary and manually input data) and assign particular event attributes to each event we store, which means all the event data you need to know, including location-based API data like what conferences are happening around the world, is stored in one handy location.

Our API doesn’t just churn out a big list of flat data though. We’re in the business of event visibility so you can see exactly which event might impact your bottom line, when. You can even do smart things like use IATA codes to lookup events, search within a geographical radius, or query multiple locations and categories at the same time, so whether you’re in marketing or sales you’ve got plenty of time to plan ahead for whatever event that’s just around the corner.
