AEvent vs. Demio

Demio makes webinars simple. AEvent makes them scale.
Demio focuses on simplicity, and for early-stage teams, that works. But as your webinar strategy matures, limitations start to stack up:
No Zoom support. Rigid UI. Linear automation. Shallow integrations.
AEvent picks up where Demio maxes out.
You’re not locked into a player. You’re not guessing if someone saw the pitch. And you’re not relying on third-party tools to follow up with leads.
Instead, you run your webinars your way, on trusted platforms like Zoom and GoTo, or through AStream for global evergreen delivery. You control the branding, the sequence, and the data, with real-time automation that powers your actual funnel.
This isn’t just webinar delivery. It’s full-orchestration, built for performance.

AEvent:
Multi-Platform Delivery, Full-Funnel Control
AEvent is the conductor - not just the stage. You choose the format, the platform, the automation, and the follow-up.
<br.
Run it live through Zoom or GoTo. Deliver it Like-Live inside Zoom for real chat and CTA timing. Stream it evergreen via AStream’s global edge-CDN, then trigger Slack alerts, CRM tags, or SMS follow-up based on what your audience does in real time.
It’s not just hosting. It’s orchestration.
Key Features:
Demio simplifies delivery. AEvent engineers scale.
Demio:
Simple Setup, Shallow Execution
Demio offers live, automated, and Like-Live webinar formats, but they all live inside its in-browser player. Setup is fast. Delivery is smooth. But once you try to scale beyond basic reminders and preloaded handouts, the walls close in.
You can’t break out of their UI. You can’t use Zoom or GoTo. And your automation is locked to linear “minute 17” logic — no branching, no CRM-triggered flows, no dynamic hybrid events.
Key Features:
AEvent:
Built to Plug Into Your Stack - Not Replace It
AEvent doesn’t hand you templates and tell you to stay inside the lines. It lets you layer timeline logic and automation onto the pages you already use: WordPress, Webflow, GoHighLevel, ClickFunnels, you name it.
Embed forms with full CRM sync. Inject dynamic elements like countdowns, name personalization, or timezone-aware scheduling. Trigger automations not just from registration, but from any on-page behavior tied to the timeline.
This isn’t just registration. It’s marketing-grade orchestration.
Key Features:
Demio builds pages for you. AEvent builds pages with you. And connects everything once they register.
Demio:
Clean, Polished and Pinned Inside a Box
Demio makes it easy to spin up landing pages and forms, if you’re okay staying within their sandbox. The design is clean, the reminders go out, but flexibility? Limited.
You can’t use your own funnel builder. You can’t push custom logic without Zapier. And unless you’re on a premium plan, your branding and tracking are capped. Want to personalize by timezone or route leads by behavior? Better start stitching.
Key Features:
AEvent:
Engagement That Extends Beyond the Webinar
AEvent treats engagement like part of your funnel, not just a moment inside the session.
Schedule CTAs and chat drops tied to specific watch behaviors. Let your team respond live, or directly from Slack. Show or hide chat at key conversion points. Simulate replay chat to maintain energy and social proof. Whether it’s Live, Like-Live, or Hybrid - engagement never dies when the event ends.
Key Features:
Demio’s engagement feels good. AEvent’s engagement closes deals.
Demio:
Clean UI, Limited Lifespan
Demio’s interface feels polished. You get live chat, polls, handouts, and CTAs in the sessions. But when the webinar ends, the engagement dies with it.
Simulated chat is only available for certain formats. There’s no real-time Slack integration, no persistent Q&A threads, and no way to keep momentum moving after the session without duct tape. Everything’s locked to the webinar window.
Key Features:
AEvent:
Live-Grade Delivery, No Compromises
AEvent delivers webinars through the same infrastructure powering the biggest virtual events on Earth, Zoom, GoToWebinar, and AStream (edge-node CDN).
Want Like-Live realism? Run your pre-recorded webinar inside Zoom — with timed-chat, live-chat, and flawless stream quality. Want evergreen delivery? AStream handles that globally, with CDN nodes close to your audience. Want to screen share? You're doing it through platforms built for it, not inside a simulated wrapper.
Key Features:
Demio plays your video. AEvent broadcasts your webinar like it matters, because it does.
Demio:
Smooth Playback, Until It Isn’t
Demio runs entirely in-browser - simple for attendees, solid for most connections. But when it comes to high-production delivery, like-live realism, or evergreen streaming under pressure? You’re at the mercy of iframe players and bandwidth bottlenecks.
There’s no Zoom or GoTo app or support, Simulive sessions can lag or feel “off.”
What you gain in simplicity, you sacrifice in production control.
Key Features:
AEvent:
Actionable Data, Built to Automate
AEvent doesn’t just collect data, it converts it into leverage.
You can segment by what they watched, skipped, clicked, or ignored. You can trigger CRM automations, email flows, retargeting, or Slack alerts based on exact timeline moments. No spreadsheets. No plugins. Just conversion intelligence you can act on instantly.
Key Features:
Demio reports. AEvent responds. In real time. Automatically.
Demio:
Basic Reporting. Manual Follow-Up.
Demio shows you the essentials: who registered, who attended, and how long they stayed. You’ll get stats on poll responses and replay views. Enough to review performance, but not enough to act in real time.
Segmentation is limited, and any serious follow-up requires exporting CSVs, building Zapier chains, or hoping webhook triggers land. For many teams, that means gaps in the funnel, or missed revenue entirely.
Key Features:
AEvent:
Full-Stack, Logic-Driven, Built for Marketers
AEvent was built to play nice with your stack, and trigger the right follow-up, in the right channel, at the right time.
65+ native integrations. Webhooks, API access, and no paywall plugins.
The visual Timeline Builder lets you define behavior-based actions without writing code: tag in ActiveCampaign, send an SMS via Twilio, drop them into a GHL pipeline, or fire off a Slack ping, all from one place.
Key Features:
Demio makes you automate around it. AEvent lets you automate through it.
Demio:
Some Natives, Lots of Duct Tape
Demio connects with a few popular platforms like Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign, and ConvertKit. But once you need advanced automation, you’re neck-deep in Zapier.
There’s no visual builder. No timeline branching. No built-in logic for actions like “watched 75% but didn’t click.” You can drop a CTA or send a reminder, but true marketing automation? That’s on you and whatever third-party tools you can bolt on.
Key Features:
AEvent:
Visual. Guided. Actually Supported.
AEvent gives you the flexibility to run advanced campaigns with the UI to support them, and the team to back you up.
You get a visual builder to map your entire timeline. Real-time in-app chat support Monday through Friday, 24 hours a day. Average response time? Under 5 minutes. No begging, no ticket roulette.
Key Features:
Demio is easy until it isn’t. AEvent stays easy, even when your funnel isn’t.
Demio:
Easy for Beginners, Limited When It Counts
Demio’s UI is slick and simple. If you just need to go live and drop a poll, you’ll be fine. But when it’s time to layer in funnel logic, set up Like-Live delivery, or connect CRM automations, the simplicity quickly turns into roadblocks.
Support is ticket-based. Response times vary. There’s no real onboarding, no dedicated help during launches, and no weekend coverage when campaigns are heating up.
Key Features:
AEvent:
Transparent. Scalable. Everything Unlocked.
AEvent starts at $95/month and you get full access to the platform’s real power from day one.
Zoom and GoTo integration. AStream for evergreen delivery. Full automation. Native integrations. No plugins. No upsells. No feature bloat. Just plans that scale based on usage, not locked tools.
Annual plans include white-glove onboarding. And no matter which tier you’re on, support stays fast and human.
Key Features:
Demio makes you pay for power. AEvent gives you power that pays.
Demio:
Starts Cheap. Scales… Expensively.
Demio’s entry plan looks attractive, but once you need automation, branding, custom domains, or deeper integrations, the price climbs fast.
You’ll run into locked features, Zapier requirements, and limited seats or events unless you upgrade. And even at higher tiers, some functionality (like advanced segmentation or platform flexibility) simply isn’t there.

Our attendance rate has gone up 50%...
We've seen attendance rates reach as high as 85% which is practically unheard of! We've used this in one multi-million launch and many other smaller promotions as well.It's a fantastic system and I highly recommend it.

8 tools replaced by ONE...
Before AEvent we had to kludge together 8 different tools. It felt impossible to manage, so I gave up on Webinars until I discovered AEvent. It's amazing to have my webinar funnels automated and centralized in one App.

Millions in extra revenue!
25% show rate with 10k attendees...
CONFESSION: I ignored Winter & AEvent For 3 Years.
Robby Blanchard one day nonchalantly messages me that he got a 25% show rate on 10,000+ registrants who had registered for 2+ WEEKS.
Needless to say - I called Winter immediately and the results have been ABSOLUTELY incredible - We saw instant results & have cancelled all other Apps.
Anik Singal
CEO - Lurn
50% Attendance Increase...
Twice a week, I use AEvent to run affiliate promotions to my partner’s offer.
Previously, I had just been using only GoToWebinar and some really basic email marketing.
2x Sales Conversions...
Literally the first month we started using AEvent, we doubled our ad spend. That was back in June 2022, and we’ve since doubled it again.
Before using AEvent we had a lead to conversion rate of 1.44%. As soon as we started using AEvent, it increased to 2.38%.
The unit economics of our whole business has changed. Now we’re able to spend more to acquire a lead because now they’re twice as likely to become a customer.
