## What is oyado?

oyado is a "library of stays" — collect the hotels and ryokan that catch your eye, and keep your next trip and travel memories in one place.

Official sites, booking sites, social media, articles — encounters with great stays are scattered everywhere. With oyado, save from the Safari share sheet, by pasting a URL, or by searching a name. Wherever you found it, you'll find it again.

[Save stays the moment you find them]
- Save from the share sheet in Safari and other apps
- Add with just a URL or a name
- Name, photos, and location fetched automatically
- Organize with 5 statuses: Interested / Want to go / Booked / Visited / Favorite

[Find your next trip in your own library]
- Search across names, places, notes, and AI highlights
- Filter by area, country, tag, and status
- Browse as collections, on a map, or in a calendar
- Get recommendations with reasons, based on your saves and tastes

[Collect and decide together]
- Share collections with invited members
- Discuss candidates with likes and polls
- Public visibility and member sharing are set separately

[Turn your stays into a passport]
- Log check-in/out, room, photos, notes, and articles
- Look back at visited stays on the map and calendar
- Keep every stay and area as a chronological album

For booking, you'll be taken to the stay's official site or a booking site.
Your next trip starts by saving the one that caught your eye.
