Explori launches SlidePal, a breakthrough in event intelligence and automated reporting
Explori, a world leader in event measurement and benchmarking, has launched SlidePal, a new reporting solution designed to dramatically reduce the time and effort required to turn event data into meaningful intelligence.
Built specifically for event professionals, SlidePal combines sophisticated analytical capabilities with advanced strategic deck automation, enabling event teams to produce comprehensive, storyboarded reports in a fraction of the time traditionally required.
Anyone can capture data. The real advantage comes from being able to turn that data into intelligence that informs better decisions.

"Event teams need more than dashboards and isolated statistics. They need structured, contextualised analysis that tells them what's working, what isn't, and where the opportunities lie. That's what enables them to develop better event strategies and deliver stronger outcomes," says Mark Brewster, CEO of Explori.
Years in development, SlidePal brings together Explori's extensive experience in event research, advanced analytics and industry benchmarking within a purpose-built reporting environment.
The solution draws on attendee and exhibitor survey data, alongside registration and other event datasets, to produce sophisticated presentation-ready reports. These incorporate AI-generated analysis, executive summaries, advanced analytical models and comparative benchmarking.
Crucially, SlidePal gives users control over the reporting process, allowing them to easily build, edit and refine their reports rather than relying on static, limited exports. Users require no Excel or PowerPoint skills to produce professional-level decks in minutes.
One of the biggest challenges facing event teams is time-to-insight: getting actionable findings from their last event into the hands of decision-makers quickly. I've never seen a solution that achieves this as elegantly and rapidly as SlidePal.

Brewster believes the limitations of generic AI tools underline the need for a more specialised approach.
"Generic AI just can't do this job reliably. It doesn't have the industry context, the benchmarking intelligence, the event-specific analytical structures or the editing suite required to produce genuinely useful reporting. Perhaps most problematically, generalist LLMs can produce inconsistent findings from one prompt to the next. Event teams need analysis they can trust, reproduce and build upon."
"And when you're still having to prepare datasets, move them between systems and make endless adjustments in Excel and PowerPoint, you haven't really solved the underlying problem. You've just introduced another step into an already time-consuming process."
SlidePal is the culmination of years of investment in Explori's automation technology, bringing together the company's research expertise, analytical methodologies and software engineering capabilities.
"Our product and engineering teams have spent years developing our automation tools, and reaching the level of sophistication SlidePal now delivers is a landmark moment for Explori," concludes Brewster.
I genuinely believe this is one of the most significant and distinctive innovations we've delivered in our nearly 15 years in business. We've taken something that has traditionally been laborious, technically demanding and difficult to scale, and fundamentally changed what's possible. For event teams, that means less time producing reports and more time using intelligence to make their events better. And ultimately, that's what Explori is here to do.
