What We've Learned Running ID-Verified Events
We review every government ID by hand before a member can RSVP to anything. It is
slower than an automated check, but it is the single reason hosts tell us they finally
feel safe opening their homes to strangers — there is a real person behind every profile.
Approval-based registration changed attendance more than anything else we shipped. When
a host can approve or decline each request, the people who show up are the people who
genuinely intend to come. Hosts consistently report far fewer no-shows once they switched
from open RSVPs to approvals.
We reveal a venue's exact address only after a guest is approved. Early on we learned
that publishing the full address upfront made hosts anxious, so privacy-first address
reveal is now built into every event by default.
