Show HN: We built a lightweight tool to easily manage virtual events

This is useful. What is next on the integration roadmap besides Zoom – presume Hangouts? Not sure if new FB live features have an API
We're working on adding payment support, custom registration questions, more event page themes, event subscriptions for your attendees, and integrations to more tools like Slack, Google Hangouts, etc!
Facebook/Instagram and social platforms have notoriously restrictive API's and are closed-architecture so not sure if something we want to mess with yet.

We originally built this for internal use to solve a frustration we had around manually sending calendar invites for virtual Zoom events we were hosting. We decided to polish it up a bit and release it for anyone to use, completely free.
It enables you to quickly spin up an event page, collect RSVPs, send calendar invites, and export RSVPs. We've also built a host page for those hosting multiple events, making it easy to share one link with all of your upcoming events!

Right now it integrates with Zoom, letting you automatically generate a unique ID, configure settings, and see who actually attended, but it works with any virtual event tool (YouTube, Twitch, LinkedIn Live, etc).
