GROUP CHAT COMPARISON ○ The current method most people use to get their friends together is some form of group chat. ○ We built Venra looking to improve some of the drawbacks of planning with a group chat. ○ Here's some of the biggest problems we have addressed: ○ Problem: Plans getting buried in the chat feed. ○ Solution: All invites are displayed clearly on the home screen. ○ Problem: No clear dashboard where you can see your upcoming plans across multiple group chats. ○ Solution: Organised all upcoming activities on your events page, clearly see the number of people going, who's hosting, dates, and times. ○ Problem: Can't easily distinguish between chat between friends and invites from friends. ○ Solution: Currently, every Venra notification you receive will be a new invite or a new person attending. ○ Problem: Inviting friends usually means constructing a lengthy paragraph explaining the event details. ○ Solution: We've simplified the process. We have different fields for activity title, date, time, duration, location, and details. So all you have to do is enter the relevant info. ○ Problem: Usually not all of your friends are in a single group chat, so you have to send multiple invites. ○ Solution: Groups on Venra have more of a quick select function. This allows you to invite multiple groups to a single activity and as well as add or remove individuals as you see fit. FINAL REMARK ○ Don't let any more of your plans fall through, download Venra now and discover just how easy it is to get your friends together.
