Paperless, a Nigerian digital technology company, has officially re-launched EventPulse, its flagship event management platform, following a complete rebuild of the product from the ground up.

The platform, now live as of April 1, 2026, represents a significant leap forward for the African event management industry, offering organisers a single, unified platform to manage every aspect of an event from planning to post-event reporting.

The re-launch comes after the company made the bold decision to retire its previous platform entirely, rather than patch the technical issues and user experience shortfalls that had drawn widespread complaints from its user base.

The move, which resulted in an extended period of silence from the Paperless team, was internally described as a commitment to rebuilding responsibly rather than shipping updates that did not address the root of the problem. “Our users deserved better than what we were giving them,” said David Oluwabusayo, Chief Technology Officer at Paperless.

“We made a deliberate decision to step back, listen carefully, and return only when we had something we were genuinely proud of. “That moment is now.”

Every major feature decision in the new EventPulse traces back to a pain point raised by a real user. The result is a platform that now covers the full lifecycle of an event: planning and timeline management, team and task coordination, ticketing and attendee management, expense tracking, sponsorship management, in-app communications, attendee engagement, venue discovery,

floor plan design, speaker management, post-event galleries, an ecommerce store for merchandise and add-ons, a viral GetDP feature for social media promotion, custom tag generation, and an AI-powered support assistant embedded directly within the platform.
