What DownToMeet is

DownToMeet is a web platform for creating, finding and attending group events, with tools built for organizers. Organizers can collect RSVP answers, manage waitlists, send automatic notifications, take attendance, communicate with members and host discussion boards. Members can add event photos to albums, then like and comment on them. Groups and events can be personalized with links, photos, fonts and colors.

Privacy settings let organizers make groups public, closed or hidden, and events public, closed or private. The site says only a member’s screen name is displayed publicly, while its privacy policy says real names and email addresses are encrypted in its database. It also says it does not sell or rent email addresses and uses third-party vendors to store site data. The website works on a smartphone without requiring an app. The free plan is ad-supported. Paid annual subscriptions cost $9.99 USD for groups with 1 to 100 members, or $14.99 USD for groups larger than 100 members. The service is intended for people aged 18 or older.
