Looking for an alternative to Eventbase?

Eventbase builds award-winning event apps trusted at CES and SXSW. But it is a point solution: no native registration, no lead capture, no exhibitor ROI tools, and no SOC2 Type II certification. Building a full event experience on top of Eventbase means managing 3–4 additional vendors.

Swapcard is the all-in-one alternative. AI-powered engagement and lead generation built into one platform.

Why Swapcard

Four reasons trade show and association organizers choose Swapcard over Eventbase

icon-team collaboration

All-in-one vs. premium point solution

Eventbase stops at mobile app. Swapcard extends to registration, lead capture, exhibitor management, and analytics on a single data layer.

icon-contact-dashboard

Lead capture Eventbase doesn't offer

Eventbase offers no lead capture product. Swapcard delivers offline-capable badge scanning, AI scoring, real-time CRM sync, and an organizer revenue model in one platform.

icon-contact-management

Protect the data behind every event with enterprise-grade security

Eventbase holds ISO 27001 but not SOC 2 Type II, leaving organizers to fill the audit gap themselves. Swapcard holds both, with independent verification renewed annually.

icon-drive-ROI

Native AI, not a third-party partnership

Eventbase's AI (EventCopilot) is a separate integration with TurnoutNow. Swapcard's behavioral AI was built into the platform, and driving proactive exhibitor discovery with Sherlock Agentic AI.
