Give your guests the chance to meet.
Owa’w lets the right people find each other during your event. With identity verification, ownership checks, and adaptive moderation — built in.
What your guests live with Owa’w
Before the doors open — Thirty minutes before the start of your event, Owa’w opens a perimeter around your venue. Guests already present can begin to discover each other, with no awkwardness.
During the event — Inside the perimeter, your guests choose who they want to talk to. No swiping, no profiles to scroll. Just real people, in the same place, at the same moment.
After the last song — When the event ends, conversations remain open for a few hours. Then everything closes. Your guests leave with the contacts they chose to keep, or with the memory of a good evening.
Four steps to put your event on Owa’w
Create your account
Name, email, password. Then a quick identity check through Stripe, with no charge. Your account is ready in two minutes.
Submit your event
Title, date, location, category. Add the URL of your event's official page — ticketing platform, Instagram post, official website. Whatever you already use.
Confirm it's yours
Owa’w generates a unique code. You paste it on your official page. We check that it's there. The principle is the one Google Search Console uses to verify domain ownership.
Publication
Most events go live automatically. Some go through manual review when the situation requires it. You see your status at every step.
Our approach to trust
We don't claim to filter humanity. We make sure your event runs on solid ground.
Verified identity, no document scanning — We use Stripe Setup Intent to confirm that the person creating an account is who they say. No ID upload, no biometric check. Just the name verified by their bank, compared to the name declared.
Real ownership, not just a name — The unique code in your official page proves that you actually control your event. A fraudster can't fake that, because they don't have access to your ticketing back-office or your Instagram account.
Moderation that matches the moment — Events submitted weeks ahead are reviewed at a steady pace. Events submitted close to the day require faster decisions. Our moderation timing adapts to the urgency, with clear deadlines on our side.
Trust earned, not declared — Owa’w doesn't display a single "Verified" badge. Our trust levels — New, Established, Established+ — reflect a real history of events run cleanly. Earned with use, not granted by us.
The same standard, wherever your events take place.
Built for the world, by design
Owa’w doesn't ask you what type of organizer you are. Independent artist, established agency, cultural association — the same path applies. No business registration number is required, only suggested. No country-specific identity service. Just a platform that works wherever your event takes place.
Three contexts, one platform — A club night in Paris. A cultural gathering in Fort-de-France. A music festival in Abidjan. Owa’w treats them the same way, with the same standards of trust.
Owa’w doesn't replace your ticketing platform or your communication channels. It works alongside them. Your event lives where it already does — on Bizouk, Shotgun, Eventbrite, your own website. Owa’w adds a layer of in-situ connection, only during your event.
Frequently asked questions
How much does Owa’w cost?
Owa’w is free for organizers during our initial phase. We're focused on building the platform and proving its value. A pricing model will be announced once Owa’w is established, and existing organizers will have full visibility before any change.
Does Owa’w replace my ticketing platform?
No. Your event lives where it already does — Bizouk, Shotgun, Eventbrite, your own website. Owa’w doesn't sell tickets, doesn't process payments, doesn't handle communication. We add a layer of in-situ connection, available only during your event.
How do you guarantee safety?
Three layers. Identity verification through Stripe Setup Intent at signup. Ownership verification through a unique code placed on your official page. Adaptive moderation that escalates manual review when needed. None of this prevents every problem, but it makes your event harder to associate with bad actors.
Can my event be refused?
Yes. Owa’w refuses events that explicitly target minors (our platform is 18+) and content illegal under applicable law. Some events go through manual review when signals require it. The vast majority of legitimate events are published automatically.
Is Owa’w available in my country?
Yes, wherever you can host an event with an online presence — a ticketing page, an Instagram post, an official website. Owa’w doesn't depend on country-specific identity services or business registration databases. If your event exists publicly, Owa’w can serve it.
Your event takes place once. The connections it creates can last.
