Describe the app to Appaca
Tell Appaca: "Build a conference talk tracker with talks (title, abstract, audience level), conferences (name, date, location, CFP deadline, status: researching/submitted/accepted/rejected/delivered), talk-conference assignments, travel logistics per conference, and a talk library showing each talk's acceptance rate."

Build your talk library
Enter each talk you have in your repertoire with title, abstract, and target audience. A talk library lets you see which talks to pitch to which conferences.
- 4
Track CFP deadlines
Add conferences you are targeting with their CFP deadlines. The calendar view shows upcoming deadlines so you prepare abstracts in time.
- 5
Log submissions and outcomes
When you submit a talk, record the conference and submission date. Update the status when you hear back: accepted, waitlisted, or rejected.
- 6
Add post-event notes
After delivering a talk, log audience size, feedback received, and improvements for next time. This improves each talk with every delivery.
