About · Symposia

The index of where
ideas convene

Symposia is an editorial, AI-augmented catalog of the world's academic and industry conferences. We aggregate, curate, and present them with the care of a research journal — typography, structure, and an honest tone — rather than the spreadsheet aesthetic that dominates this category.

We collect what matters: papers, speakers, places, dates, CFP deadlines. Then we let you do useful things with it — search in natural language, save to a personal index, export to your calendar, get an AI summary of a paper, and see what fellow attendees thought.

AI built in

The AI Concierge (powered by Claude) answers natural-language queries against the catalog — "AI conferences in Europe before September" — and returns ranked, reasoned recommendations. AI Paper Summaries condense any abstract into four bullets on demand. AI is never a stunt here; it's a faster way to read.
