Openbook

Event room

Plan it, RSVP it, discuss it

An events hub with upcoming, past, and calendar tabs. RSVP as going or interested, and keep the discussion attached to the event instead of scattered across chat.

Event room illustration

Event gives your team one place for everything with a date on it: offsites, all-hands, launch parties, training sessions. Tabs for upcoming and past events plus a calendar view mean people can see what's coming and what they missed, without hunting through email invites.

RSVPs are one click, going or interested, so organizers know their numbers early. Every event carries its own discussion thread, keeping the where-do-we-park questions attached to the event they're about instead of interrupting a work channel.

What you get

Everything inside Event

Upcoming and past tabs

What's next and what happened, cleanly separated. New joiners can see the events that shaped the team, too.

Calendar view

See events laid out on a calendar, so the month's plan is one glance instead of a scroll through invites.

One-click RSVP

Going or interested, one tap. Organizers get real headcounts without chasing replies.

Discussion threads

Every event has its own thread for questions, logistics, and follow-ups, attached where they belong.

A hub, not an invite

Events live in a room the whole team can browse, not in inboxes where only invitees see them.

Notified, not surprised

Openbook's in-app and email notifications keep people up to date on the events they care about.

FAQ

Common questions

How do RSVPs work?+

One click: going or interested. Organizers see who responded and can plan numbers accordingly. Interested gives people a way to signal without committing, which turns out to be most of the signal you need for planning.

Where do event questions and logistics go?+

Each event has its own discussion thread. Parking, dietary requirements, agenda requests; it all stays attached to the event, searchable later, instead of scattering across a chat channel.

Can people see past events?+

Yes. The past tab keeps a record of what already happened, alongside upcoming events and a calendar view. It doubles as a nice history of team life for anyone who joined recently.

Do teams need a separate events tool?+

For internal events, no. The Event room covers publishing, RSVPs, and discussion inside the workspace people already use, with in-app and email notifications. One less external tool, one less place to check.
