  1. 1 Design

    Create and structure meetings just by writing. Turbostart: paste in what you have.

    Start typing your ideas

    Create your meeting agenda in our text-based editor — type your thoughts directly, or paste emails, chats, and notes. Save time and skip the hassle of starting from scratch.

    Refine with shortcuts & Markdown

    Break your ideas into sequences without reworking your entire content. Use # to create a new sequence (or remove it to merge two), @ to assign a speaker, and  :  to define a duration.

    One agenda. Two perspectives.

    Your full notes and structure stay private. Anything marked with > becomes part of the public agenda, turning into simple slides your audience can follow.

  2. 2 Prepare & Share

    Prepare your presentation and share it with your team. No more last-minute changes.

    Before you start

    Don’t miss a thing before your meeting. Catena provides you with an autogenerated checklist, then lets you plan and save your meeting directly to your calendar.

    Collaborate with teammates

    Invite your team to co-create the meeting agenda and preparation. Share to-do lists, exchange feedback, and refine your presentation together.

    Customize & share

    Personalize your meeting with your own branding, colors, and fonts. Then share the agenda with your audience so they know what to expect and can follow along in real time.

  3. 3 Perform

    Run your workshop with ease. Keep track of time, and focus on what matters most: your audience.

    Stay on schedule

    Keep your meeting on time with Catena. Track progress easily, and get notified when it’s time to move on to the next topic.

    Multi-device / Multi-screen

    Use Catena seamlessly across all your devices. Share your presentation on a big screen, keep your notes on your laptop, stay on time with a confidence screen, and control everything right from your phone.

    Your audience follows along

    Let your audience stay in sync on their own devices. They can view content and track the meeting’s progress in real time.
