Why Guests Love the PEA™
— and You Will Too
Six reasons the Progressive Event App™ (PEA™) is the smartest, slickest, most stress-free attendee experience you’ll ever deploy.
Instant Access
Tap Once. You’re In.
Guests open a smart link and the app launches instantly in their browser. No installs. No passwords. No friction. Just pure event magic in one tap.
Seamless Reuse
PEA™ Remembers Everything.
Once a guest joins one of your events, they’re remembered forever. No duplicate logins. No lost data. Just smooth — and personal.
App-Like UX
Looks Installed. Runs in Browser.
Maps, agenda, messaging, tickets — all beautifully styled, instantly available, and lightning fast. No app bloat. Just sleek, responsive perfection.
Your Brand, Your App
No Presso Logos. Ever.
The app carries your icon, your colours, your name. Attendees see your brand — not ours — from install to applause.
Faster Launches
Launch Instantly. Not Next Month.
Forget submission delays, app reviews, and Apple guidelines. PEA™ works right from your browser, so you’re live instantly — with zero red tape.
Cost-Effective, Forever
No Middlemen. No 30% Cuts

What Is a PEA? The Progressive Event App That Just Works
Presso’s PEA™ isn’t your typical event app. It’s a Progressive Event App™ — a custom-built PWA engineered specifically for high-end events. That means no downloads. No app stores. No installs. Just one smart link that launches instantly on any device, in any browser — beautifully branded, always up to date, and ready to go.
“Presso was super simple to use yet so effective, the user experience was very accessible and it saved time on the usual pre-conference networking 'homework' that I needed to do. It was particularly good for moments where you may forget the name of someone you had just spoken to and ensures you have their details on hand for a follow up afterwards.”
Why It Feels So Effortless:
- One link. All devices. PEA™ opens instantly on any phone, tablet, or laptop — with no installs, no updates, no versioning issues.
- Real-Time, Always Synced. Agendas, messages, networking tools — always live, always accurate, and always beautiful.
- Offline-Ready. Lightning-Fast. Built on modern web standards for speed, security, and smooth performance — even without Wi-Fi.
- Built for Events. Not App Stores. No approvals. No 30% fees. No “please update to continue.” Just tap, launch, and shine.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
The PEA™ — Explained Without the Tech Headache
💡 Still unsure? Drop us an email — we’ll respond fast (real human, no ticket system).
- What exactly is a Progressive Event App™ (PEA™)?
- PEA™ is Presso’s proprietary in-browser event app — built using Progressive Web App technology. It installs with one tap from a browser, works instantly on any device, and doesn’t require app store approval, updates, or downloads.
- Do attendees need to download anything?
- No. That’s the beauty. Guests tap a smart link — no passwords, no downloads, no delays. The app launches in their browser and works like it was installed.
- How does PEA™ remember attendee profiles?
- Each guest is assigned a persistent profile, which travels with them across your events. If they attend one event on your domain, they’re remembered for the next — no re-registration needed.
- Can it work offline or in low signal environments?
- Yes. PEA™ is built using modern PWA standards, which means it’s lightning-fast and offline-capable. Attendees can still view schedules, tickets, and saved data without a connection.

- Absolutely. The app is fully branded — your icon, your name, your colours. There’s no Presso branding anywhere. To your guests, it is your app.
- Can I use this for multiple events or teams?
- Yes. PEA™ is multi-tenant ready — meaning you can run /summit, /retreat, /uk, and more from one master system. Each event has its own structure, but guests stay remembered throughout.
