Secure Online Meetups is a free online-native alternative to meetup.com. It focuses on safety, privacy and leveraging the unique advantages of online meetings. You don't need Zoom or Meetup accounts, saving you $500/year. SOM creates single-use, non-shareable and non-transferable meeting links for your attendees that expire after every meeting. You are guaranteed that eveyone in you meeting is someone you invited. You can manually approve them up-front, place them in quarantine where they can only interact with you and ban them safely, knowing they can’t come back. SOM also provides you a suite of tools to help manage your community. You can create custom registration forms, easily email your community and track attendance. You can measure engagement, automate feedback and get alerts for first-time visitors. Unlike meetup.com, you can export your email list at any time. Everything you need to create, grow and sustain your supportive community is here.
