Talli

For public sector programs

Public events people can read, reach and attend.

Talli runs registration, tickets and check-in for programs that serve the public. Each event can be offered in the languages your community reads, with translations your team reviews, step-free routes checked on the floor plan, and check-in that keeps working without signal.

What gets in the way of an event for everyone?

Common problems for programs that serve the public, and what Talli does about each one.

Residents read many different languages

Add any language to an event, and Talli translates its registration page, questions, tickets and emails automatically. Each person gets their ticket and confirmation email in the language they registered in.

Languages and translation

You cannot vouch for machine translation

Your team reviews every text side by side with the original and marks it Looks right or edits it. Edits are never overwritten, and unreviewed text carries a "Translated automatically" note with a link to the original.

Review translations

People need to know they can get in

Each venue keeps an accessibility checklist with the month it was last checked, translated for attendees. The floor plan checks for a step-free route, and the venue map shows step-free routes when someone asks.

Venue map and signs

You have to show who changed what

Talli records every change with who made it, when, and whether it came from the web app or an AI assistant. A change and its log entry are saved together, so no change goes unrecorded.

Roles and activity log

Community venues often have no signal

Open check-in while connected and the event's list is saved on the device. Scanning and search keep working offline, and waiting scans sync on their own when the connection is back.
