Everything we do is built around supporting meeting planners, and we’re constantly looking for ways to make your job easier.
Searching for the right speaker takes a lot of time and coordination. It’s a lot to manage, which is why we rebuilt the LAI website.
From smarter search that helps you find the right speaker faster to built-in tools for saving, sharing, and managing your shortlist, every update was designed to simplify your workflow.
See What’s New
We’ve always led the industry—from launching one of the first comprehensive speaker websites to being the first to share fee information. Now, we’re taking that further with a fully reimagined digital experience.
Here’s what’s new:
- AI-enhanced search that understands natural language, recognizes typos, and delivers relevant results faster
- Save and organize speakers into curated lists as you research
- Real-time collaboration with your team using shareable lists that update automatically
- LAI Dashboard to manage booked speakers, event logistics, and materials
We’ll dive into these features below.
Smarter Search, Faster Results
Between budget, location, and event themes, finding the right speaker can be a daunting task.
With our new AI-enhanced search, you can get from idea to shortlist in less time. Instead of relying on traditional filters alone, you can simply describe what you’re looking for, whether that’s “AI speakers under $50K in Florida” or “female leadership speakers.”
The system automatically narrows results based on your criteria, including topic, location, and fee range.
Once you’ve refined your results, you can save your search to revisit later—perfect for ongoing planning or recurring events. And when you’re ready to take the next step, submitting an inquiry is faster than ever, with your information already pre-filled in your account.
You’ll spend less time searching and more time focusing on creating a fantastic event.
Plan and Collaborate with Speaker Lists
Planning an event often means juggling ideas, feedback, and logistics across multiple stakeholders. The LAI dashboard brings all of that into one place.
With a free account, you can build and manage speaker lists as you research. This helps you keep track of potential options without losing momentum. When it’s time to collaborate, simply share your list with colleagues using a live link that updates as you add or refine speakers.
Your LAI Dashboard
Once a speaker is confirmed, the dashboard becomes your central hub. Event details, speaker information, and curated marketing materials are all organized and accessible when you need them. You can even invite team members to collaborate, ensuring everyone has access to the same up-to-date information. No more digging through emails!
Built With You in Mind
Every feature of the new LAI website was designed to remove friction from your planning. We want you to discover the right speaker faster, collaborate more easily, and stay organized from start to finish.
