Vanko

Vanko turns messy group chat notices, hackathon announcements, and forwarded messages into a clean, organized calendar — automatically.

Stop manually copying dates from group chats. Share or paste any event notice into Vanko, and its AI extracts the event date, registration deadline, location, and event type in seconds — so you never miss a deadline again.

KEY FEATURES

Smart Event Extraction
Paste or share text from messaging apps, email circulars, or documents. Vanko separates the event date from the registration deadline, resolves relative dates such as "this Saturday," and classifies the event type automatically. Every extracted event is shown for your review before saving, so you're always in control.

Reliable Deadline Reminders
Receive notifications 24 hours, 12 hours, and 2 hours before a registration deadline or event start, so last-minute scrambles become a thing of the past.

Conflict Detection
Vanko automatically flags schedule clashes and possible duplicate entries, keeping your calendar clean and accurate.

Campus Community Feed
Browse verified hackathons, workshops, and announcements curated by campus admins. Tap "I'm Going" to RSVP and save events directly to your personal calendar.

Offline Access
Your calendar is cached on your device, so you can view your schedule and upcoming deadlines even without an internet connection. Changes made offline sync automatically once you're back online.

Privacy and Data Control
Data is encrypted in transit. You can export your data at any time, or permanently delete your account and all associated data directly from the app or through our public deletion portal.

Vanko is built for students managing hackathons, coursework deadlines, tech meetups, and campus events in one place.
