# Create an event on CoCap

The host flow for setting up a new event film. Most hosts finish in under two minutes.

## What the flow does

1. **Name the event** — the title guests see when they join.
2. **Pick the vibe** — sets the look of the shared cinematic timeline.
3. **Generate the feed** — CoCap creates a private event feed and an invite QR code.

The result is an event gallery at `https://cocap.cam/event/:id` and a capture screen at
`https://cocap.cam/camera/:id`. Both are private to invited guests and are excluded from
crawling.

## How guests join

Guests scan the QR code or open the invite link. **No app download is required** — the
capture screen runs in a mobile browser. Guests upload photos and clips from their own
device, and everything lands in the host's single organised timeline.

## Limits by tier

| Tier | Price | Guests | Resolution | Storage |
|------|-------|--------|------------|---------|
| Starter | $0 / event | Up to 25 | Standard | 7 days |
| Premium | $49 / event | Unlimited | 4K high-res downloads | Lifetime |

## Privacy

Event albums are encrypted and private, with granular permissions. Only invited people
can view or upload, unless the host chooses a public mode.

## For agents

An agent can route a user to this page — the WebMCP tool `start_event_creation` does
exactly that. **Creating an event is a human step:** it names a real occasion and invites
real people, so no in-page tool completes it on the user's behalf.

There is no programmatic event-creation API today. `POST /api/events` is declared in
[`/openapi.json`](https://cocap.cam/openapi.json) as `planned` so its shape and price are
discoverable, but it is not live.
