Why it's a match

Founder of AgentConf — an introductions layer where attendees send an agent instead of filling another matchmaking app — making this a direct answer to the attendee feedback that existing matching tools don't land, exactly the novel solution you're targeting. Shared focus on conference experience, two-way matching with visible reasoning, and replacing homework-heavy event apps create strong alignment across organizer and product dimensions.
