tunyt vs the rest
Eventbrite charges you to exist. Luma looks pretty but stops there. Hopin pivoted away. After shipping events that run themselves, here's our honest case for why tunyt is the last tool your team needs.
The problem
You log in, fill out a form, get a page, share it. Then you wait. Then you manually chase RSVPs, copy-paste check-in lists, field the "did I register?" DMs, and at the end you export a CSV into a spreadsheet that immediately goes stale.
This is the default loop — and it's been the default loop for fifteen years. The tools got prettier. The fundamental workflow never changed.
The real cost isn't the ticket fee. It's the 12 hours your team spends per event doing things a system should handle. Multiply that by your event calendar and you've got a part-time headcount hidden inside your ops.
tunyt was built specifically to collapse that loop. Not with more dashboard tabs — with agents that do the work for you.
Head to head
| Feature | Eventbrite | Luma | Hopin | tunyt |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Custom event types (RSVP, ticketed, online, hybrid) | Partial | Partial | Partial | ✓ All four |
| QR-based check-in | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Custom intake questions per event | Limited | ✗ | Limited | ✓ Per event |
| Agentic attendee management | ✗ | ✗ | ✗ | ✓ Core feature |
| Autonomous event ops (comms, reminders, routing) | ✗ | ✗ | ✗ | ✓ |
| Team-based access control | Org accounts | ✗ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Real-time ticketing infrastructure | Partial | ✗ | Partial | ✓ via Tixin |
| Free tier that doesn't expire | ✗ | ✓ | ✗ | ✓ |
| Fees on free events | Up to 3.5% + $1.79 | None | Yes | None |
The table tells part of the story. The bigger story is that the rows that matter most — agentic ops, autonomous comms, real-time infrastructure — don't even exist on the other platforms as product surface.
Flexibility
A conference has speakers, attendees, and staff — all with different access. A private dinner is invite-only with a dietary question. A virtual launch needs a stream link, a waitlist, and automated confirmations. Eventbrite has one opinionated template. Luma is beautiful and shallow. tunyt ships{" "} five distinct event modes out of the box, each configurable to what you actually need:
No duct tape. No workarounds. Each mode ships with its own check-in flow, attendee view, and agent logic underneath.
The real difference
This is the part that's hardest to explain on a pricing page, so here it is plainly: tunyt has an AI services layer that runs as a separate pipeline alongside your event. It's not a chatbot bolted on. It's not a "smart suggestions" sidebar. It's an{" "} orchestration layer that takes actions — routing, communicating, and managing on behalf of your team.
When an attendee registers with a dietary restriction, the right person on your team should know. When someone hasn't confirmed 48 hours out, they should get nudged. When check-in closes, your post-event flow should kick off. tunyt handles this without a human in the loop.
This isn't a feature. It's an architectural commitment. We built tunyt's CI/CD as three separate pipelines — server, web, AI services — so the agent layer can ship and scale independently of the product surface. That means faster agent improvements, zero downtime on agent updates, and a runtime that runs events while your team is asleep.
No other platform in this space ships an AI layer as infrastructure rather than a feature flag. That's the moat.
Pricing philosophy
Eventbrite's model is simple: they take a cut of every ticket, including{" "} free events. You're not paying for features. You're paying to use their audience. If you already have an audience — a community, a company, a college club — you're subsidising their growth, not yours.
tunyt charges on value delivered, not on existence. Free events are free. Paid events have a clear, flat Tixin fee. You keep your attendee data — it's yours, not ours to retarget.
Your attendee list is the most valuable thing that comes out of a great event. On Eventbrite, it lives in their system.{" "} On tunyt, it's yours the moment someone registers.
Who tunyt is built for
tunyt is built for the operator who runs 12 events a year across a team of 5, for the startup doing community meetups and investor dinners in the same week, for the college society that wants professional-grade check-in without a $300/month SaaS seat.
You don't need to know what an "agentic OS" is to feel the difference. You just stop doing the manual work. The event runs. You show up, talk to your people, and tunyt handles the rest.
"The best event tool is the one you forget is running — because it's handling everything."
