What Greenroom is

Greenroom is an open-source, self-hostable backstage workspace for managing a conference program from the call for speakers through event day. Its form builder supports custom fields, conditional logic, tracks, close dates and submission limits. Review tools include blind review, weighted scorecards, reviewer assignment by track and recusal. Speakers can follow submission status, update bios and headshots, and complete onboarding tasks. Organizers can build agendas by dragging sessions across rooms and days, with automatic conflict detection. The workspace also supports confirmation and decision emails, feedback, reminders and .ics calendar invites. A speaker CRM provides an organization-wide database, sourcing pipeline, segments, merge tools and bulk outreach. Greenroom offers a one-way Airtable sync, a REST API, signed webhooks and brandable website widgets. API tokens are limited to one event, and documented endpoints cover sessions, submissions and speaker profiles. The site says Greenroom runs on Cloudflare, but also says it is localhost-only, has no authentication and must never be exposed to a network.
