YOUR AUDIENCE. YOUR DIRECTION.
Their ideas.
Your final say.
Your audience brings the ideas and questions. ShowLay helps make sense of them. Your team reviews the narrative before it becomes the starting point for a film.

THE NTC FINALE
Inspired by your audience.
Brought to life by ShowLay.
At Nasscom Technology Confluence, attendees shared their ideas and questions through ShowLay. We turned those contributions into a conference finale through AI-assisted filmmaking and human creative direction.

FROM EXPERIENCE TO AN IDEA
Where the journey began.
We’ve organised conferences and created the content that brings them to life. We know the moving parts, the last-minute changes and the pressure to make it all come together.
Our early experiments with AI at conferences led to a bigger question: could we bring that creative and practical experience into one platform? That question became ShowLay.

A LITTLE REASSURANCE
Your event.
Your say.
Creative possibility, with people accountable for the outcome.
What is ShowLay?
ShowLay is an evolving event platform, owned and operated by Adaan, combining AI assistance with an experienced creative team. It is being built to help you plan, create and run your event—one part or more of it together. Today, you can start with an audience-powered conference film.
Can we use just one part of ShowLay?
Yes. Start with our audience-to-film experience without taking on the wider platform. We agree the scope around your event and can explore more as your needs grow.
How much control do we have?
Your team reviews the direction, can request revisions and approves the final content. Within the platform, approvals belong to a specific version; an edit creates a new draft. AI assists the work. It does not have the final say.
Will it feel like our brand?
Your brief, brand guidelines and approved assets guide the creative work. Our team reviews the output with you before delivery, so you can check the tone and visual treatment as well as the story.
What about our content and audience data?
The platform separates event content and restricts access by team role. Audience contributions retain source references, and credit permissions inform attribution. We agree data handling and any additional requirements for your event before work begins. Read our website privacy policy.
