How To Read The Corpus

The site is built for readers first: plain terms, source links, visible limitations, and role-specific next steps.

Agenda records

Source pages or agenda slices captured from public event sites. One large event may produce several records.

Event groups

Deduplicated clusters that gather related agenda, day, track, session, and source pages for one event.

GES

The Gathering Effectiveness Score: a strict 0-100 public-evidence reading of visible outcome architecture, not an award or causal proof claim.

Primary source

The source URL is the evidence trail. Open it before using a record for decisions, sponsorship, research, or comparison.

Choose Your Path

The same corpus answers different questions depending on whether you own, fund, design, sponsor, or package events.

Answer Engine Notes

What does the statistics page summarize?

It summarizes the public corpus by agenda records, event groups, agenda items, quality tiers, source reliability, evidence types, and Gathering Effectiveness Score distributions.

Why are the scores low on average?

The score is strict: passive agendas and records without follow-up, measurement, or impact evidence are intentionally capped or scored conservatively.
