Using Your Speaker Portal

A guide for speakers: your profile, sessions, checklist, materials, and post-event report.

1

Accessing Your Portal

Your event organizer will send you a unique portal link (a "magic link"). Click it to open your speaker portal — no account, password, or login required. The link itself is your access key.

Bookmark it. You can come back anytime before (and after) the event to update your info, book your orientation, and upload materials.

Important

Your portal link is unique to you. Don't share it — anyone with the link can edit your speaker profile.

2

Finding It in the Gythr Here App

You don't even need the link if you use the Gythr Here attendee app. Register (or sign in) in Gythr Here with the same email address the organizer used for your speaker profile, open the event, and your Speaker Portal appears right at the top under "Your Portals" — the same spot where crew and partners see theirs. Tap it to jump straight in.

If you have a speaker agreement still to sign, the card flags it with an "Action needed" note so it's easy to spot.

Pro tip

The match is by email — sign up for Gythr Here with the exact address your organizer has on file for you, and your portal shows up automatically.

3

Your Profile

At the top you'll get a welcome and your current status. In the Profile section you can edit your job title, company, bio, headshot, and social links (Twitter / X, LinkedIn, website). Changes appear on the public speakers page right away. Use Share to copy a link to your public profile.

4

Your Sessions

The My Sessions section lists every session you're assigned to, with:

  • Session type and your role (speaker, moderator, panelist, or host)
  • Your call time — when to arrive and where (with any instructions)
  • The room and your stage manager's name and contact
  • Co-presenters — other speakers, panelists, or the moderator on the same session
  • Any speaker instructions the organizer set for the session or your role

You can also Share a session or Generate Social Posts to get AI-drafted promo copy for your talk.

5

Q&A and Session Ratings

If the organizer enabled live Q&A for a session, audience questions (and their upvotes) appear on that session in your portal so you can prepare. After a session, if ratings are on, you'll see your session's aggregated, anonymized attendee rating — a quick read on how it landed.

6

Booking Your Orientation

If the organizer set up orientation slots, you'll see them in your portal. Pick a time that works and click Book This Slot (full slots are marked). You can cancel and rebook if your plans change — no back-and-forth emails or scheduling tools needed.

7

Your Checklist

The checklist shows everything the organizer needs from you — submit your slides, join a Slack channel, post about your talk, and so on — grouped into Pre-Event, Day Of, and Post-Event, with a progress bar. Check items off as you go.

Pro tip

Knock out the Pre-Event items early — especially submitting slides. A progress bar at 100% is the easiest way to be the organizer's favorite speaker.

8

Materials, Communications & FAQs

Session Materials lets you upload files (slides, handouts, video, or other) straight to the organizer. Communications is a feed of messages the organizer has sent to speakers. FAQs answers common speaker questions the organizer has pre-loaded — check here first before reaching out.

9

Your Perks

The Perks section shows what the organizer is providing you — speaker fee, travel, hotel nights, comp tickets, a discount code to share, and any custom perks — so the details are always in one place.

10

Signing Your Agreement

If the organizer attached a speaker agreement, you'll see an Agreement section. Review the document and click I Agree: Sign Agreement. Your status updates to Signed so the organizer knows you're confirmed.

11

Your Post-Event Pulse Report

After the event, once the organizer generates reports, a personalized Pulse Report appears in your portal — your session engagement, audience reach, and the impact of your contribution. Until then it shows a "coming soon" note.

Pro tip

Your Pulse Report is great for your own recap — screenshot the highlights for your LinkedIn post or your next speaking pitch.
