## What is Jelie?

Taste, mapped by the people you trust.

Jelie is where the places you love actually stay. Save the restaurants, bars, shops, and spots worth remembering. Then, when a friend is heading somewhere you know well, send them a cut: a curated slice of your list, delivered as a link they can open on their phone.

WHAT MAKES JELIE DIFFERENT

Ratings that mean something
A single star average buried under a thousand strangers' opinions doesn't tell you much. Jelie scores separate dimensions, so a beautiful room with mediocre food reads differently than a hole in the wall that nails every plate. You get a rating you can act on instead of a number clouded by outliers.

The dish, not just the place
Jelie indexes menus, so you remember the specific thing you ordered and loved. Scan a menu at the table, rate the restaurant right from it, and never again sit there trying to recall what was good here last time.

Your friends, not the crowd
The handful of people whose taste you trust are worth more than a review site. See what your friends are logging, rate places yourself, and weigh in when you think they got one wrong.

Send a cut
Heading to a city for the first time? Ask the friend who knows it. In Jelie they pick a handful of spots, feature their top three, and send it as a link. No screenshots of a notes app. No recommendations lost in a text thread from four months ago.

EVERYWHERE WORTH KEEPING

Jelie covers more than dinner. Save and rate across Eat, Drink, See, Shop, and Wellness, so the coffee place, the gym, the bookstore, and the bar all live in the same system as the restaurants.

HOW PEOPLE USE JELIE

- Building a running list of neighborhood spots worth returning to
- Keeping a "next time" list for cities they travel to often
- Sending a friend the short version of a city they know cold
- Remembering the one dish that made the whole meal
- Deciding where to go tonight without opening five apps

BUILT FOR THE WAY YOU ACTUALLY MOVE

Search a map of places near you or anywhere you're headed. Filter by category or by your own score. Save a spot in one tap from anywhere in the app. Add a private note only you can see. Log a visit and keep a real record of where you've been.

The more you rate, the better Jelie gets at sorting your own lists, which is what makes a cut worth sending.

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT

Your notes are yours. Your lists are yours until you decide to send one. Jelie is not a public review platform and there is no feed of strangers.

Start the list you should have been keeping all along.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.0.1 — 2026-08-31

Add friends by handle

Set a handle in Edit profile, then find people from Add friends. They
approve the request, and you follow each other. Requests have their own
tab under Friends — accepting connects you both ways, declining is silent.

Sending a cut works the same as before, with no account needed on either end.

More photos

Place pages now pull from Foursquare alongside Google and Yelp, so
galleries run deeper. Food shots come first.

Also in this version

- A discoverable setting under Settings. Turn it off and only cut links
  reach you.
- Fixed: switching accounts on a shared phone could carry over the
  previous account's Pro status.

### 1.0 — 2026-08-20
