Made for group trips — from first idea to last load of dishes

Plan the trip. Organize the meals. Relax.

From "where should we go?" to "who's cooking dinner?" — coordinate dates, destinations, lodging, and budgets with your group, then plan meals, assign duties, and split expenses all in one place. Built for family vacations, reunions, ski trips, and bachelorette weekends.

"This is great! I've been doing this with group chats and Excel spreadsheets for years and this is so much better!"
— Katie, Pittsburgh

Join families, friend groups, and trip planners who are done coordinating by group chat.

Sample week showing meal prep and cleanup duties assigned for each dinner, with headcounts

Two simple duties per meal — Meal Prep and Cleanup — assigned fairly across the group.

Two modes. Use one, the other, or both.

Plan the trip together, run the trip together — pick the mode you need. They work great on their own and even better side by side.

Planning mode

Get the group aligned

Use this on its own to land on dates, a destination, lodging, and a budget — even if you'll handle the trip itself elsewhere.

  • Propose dates and let everyone vote on what works.
  • Compare destinations side-by-side with the group.
  • Track lodging options, links, and who's interested.
  • Estimate the budget so there are no surprises later.

Trip mode

Run the week smoothly

Jump straight in if the trip is already booked — meals, duties, groceries, and shared expenses, no planning module required.

  • Plan meals together — nobody shows up with duplicate chili.
  • Auto-assign meal prep and cleanup so the work is fair.
  • Share one grocery list that updates in real time.
  • Track who paid for what and settle up with one tap.

Already booked? Skip planning. Just need to vote on dates? Skip the trip tools. Or use both and carry your group, guests, and budget through from idea to last meal.

Everything your group needs

From the first planning conversation through the last meal.

Date & destination voting

Propose options and let the group weigh in before anything is locked in.

Lodging research

Collect rental links, capacity, and price in one shared place — no more lost group chat threads.

Budget estimates

Set a target per person and see how lodging, food, and extras add up before you commit.

Meal planning board

Anyone can post what they're cooking, so no two people show up with chili.

Smart duty scheduling

Two duties per meal — Meal Prep and Cleanup — auto-filled based on who's around and who needs a turn.

Shared grocery list

Add items as you think of them. Check them off as you shop. Everyone stays in sync.

Shared expense tracking

Optional. Log who paid for groceries or dinner out, then settle up with one tap.

Allergies & diets

Tag shellfish, gluten, vegetarian, and more. Cooks see warnings on every meal.

Attendance tracking

Mark date-night absences. Headcounts update everywhere automatically.

Cook mode

A focused, screen-on view the meal prep person uses while cooking — recipe, headcount, and allergies.

Leftovers & already-have list

Track what's still in the fridge so nothing gets bought — or thrown out — twice.

Group notes & meal chat

Pin trip notes and comment on individual meals so nothing important gets buried.

Duty swaps

Got plans? Request a swap and the other person just taps to accept.

Notifications & digests

In-app bell plus optional email digests so nobody misses their cooking night.

Duplicate a trip

Going back next year? Copy meals, duties, and already-have staples in one click.

Today panel

One screen shows tonight's meal, your duties, who's around, and what to grab.

Printable schedule

Tape it to the fridge. Includes allergies, duties, headcounts, and meals.

Common questions

The quick answers most groups want — split by where you are in the trip.

Planning mode

Before you book

How do we agree on dates and a destination?
In Planning mode anyone can post date ranges and destination ideas as proposals. Everyone in the group rates each one with a 5-star rating, and you can see the average and how many people have weighed in. You can also nudge people who haven't voted yet. When the group has a favorite, the organizer marks it as chosen and the trip locks in those dates and that location.
How do we keep track of lodging options?
On the Lodging tab in Planning mode, anyone can paste a listing URL (Airbnb, Vrbo, a hotel page) and the app pulls in a preview. You can add bedrooms, bathrooms, capacity, nightly price, amenities, pros/cons, and photos. The group rates each option so it's clear which one is winning — no more digging through the group chat for that one link someone sent.
How does the budget estimate work?
On the Budget tab, add line items for anything the group expects to share — lodging, the rental car, groceries, an activity. Each line splits across whoever it applies to (using each member's party size, so families of four count as four), and the app shows everyone's estimated share before anyone commits to booking.

Trip mode

Once you're there

How do I start a trip?
Sign in, then tap “New trip” on your dashboard. Give it a name and date range and pick which meals you're planning (breakfast, lunch, dinner — any combo). You'll get a share link, QR code, and short share code to send to everyone. There's also a lightweight “Plan a trip” entry that creates a planning-status trip from just a name when you want to start collecting date/location proposals first.
How do I invite people to the trip?
Open the trip → More tab → Share. You can copy the link, scan the QR code, use your phone's share sheet, or read out the short share code. Anyone who opens the link and signs in joins the trip automatically — no manual approval needed. The organizer can rotate the link any time to invalidate old invites.
How do guests work — can I add my whole family?
Yes. From the More tab, add a guest for each person who isn't signing in themselves — kids, a partner, a visiting friend. They count toward headcounts and attendance. By default they're exempt from cooking and cleanup, but each guest has an "Include in cooking/cleanup duty" checkbox if you want them in the rotation (e.g., a teenager who can help cook). Only the member who added the guest can flip that — but the organizer can send an "Ask [member]" request from the All guests panel and the member responds with one tap.
