How Circuit works
The network learns from who actually shows up.
Circuit helps rooms reach and invite guests. When people arrive, a Card tap, Block tap or door check-in records who was actually there. That makes the next invitation and the next room better.
Cards are portable. Blocks are fixed. Phones read them. Circuit resolves what the tap means.
One record, however it was captured.
Circuit’s foundational record is not an RSVP, a ticket, a purchase or a saved place. It is verified physical presence: this person was intentionally recorded as being at this event, in this community, at this place.
Circuit does not track location in the background, and it never infers that someone attended because their phone was nearby or because they said they were coming. Saved intent, a recommendation and an actual visit stay three different things.
Rooms → Invitations → Attendance → Learning → Better matching → Better rooms.
- 01
Room
A room appears on Circuit and can reach guests through the guide, invitations and FM allocations.
- 02
Show up
People save, RSVP or claim a place. Circuit keeps those signals separate from the thing that matters most: who actually arrives.
- 03
Learn
Verified attendance tells Circuit what happened in the real world. For recurring rooms, that record gets stronger every time the room happens.
- 04
Next
Organisers make better decisions about who to invite and bring back, while more relevant rooms and invitations can reach guests.
Inside a room
Attendance → Recognition → Action → Stronger room.
A system that only records attendance is incomplete. A system that only reports return is passive. Circuit becomes useful when physical presence changes what happens next. With Pro (£20/mo), that is where a first-timer gets welcomed, a familiar face gets invited back, and early booking opens for the people who have earned it.
Attendance
Someone shows up
Recognition
The room knows who
Action
Welcome, invite, open up
Stronger room
More of them come back

Your cadence sets the bar · not a flat number
One record. Different views.
The organiser sees their room. The venue sees the building. The institution sees the portfolio.
Community
Who shows up here, and what should happen next?
What happened in this room, and who came back.
Place
What happens here over time?
Which programmes fill the building and build return.
Network
What is happening across the communities we support?
Which programmes and locations build participation across the portfolio.
The trust boundary
Portable identity. Scoped visibility. Aggregate federation.
Circuit holds a richer record than any single participant is permitted to see. Permissions are a product feature, not a reporting preference. That is how presence can compound across a network without becoming a public location history.
Organisers see a person’s relationship to their own community, never another organiser’s guest list.
Venues see what is appropriate to the events they operate, and building-wide patterns across the rest.
Institutions receive aggregate evidence by default. An institution receives aggregate network intelligence by default; member-level external connection is member-initiated, explicit, purpose-specific and revocable.
Other members tapping a Card see only what its owner chose to share. A Card tap reveals only what the owner chose to share. Raw attendance history is never automatically public.
Free helps you run the room. Pro helps you build the relationship.
Circuit never takes a cut of independent organiser ticket revenue.Standard payment processing still applies.
