Trip planning shouldn't be scattered across five apps and a dozen group threads. Travita brings every part of your group trip — plans, decisions, tasks, documents, and ideas — into one shared space your whole crew can use. First trip is free for all users. All features — including the AI Captain — are included with every trip. YOUR AI CAPTAIN, ALWAYS ON Travita's AI Captain learns your group's pace, budget, and travel style — then uses that to draft itineraries, surface ideas, and answer the "what should we do?" questions. Along the way, the Captain generates trip insights: budget recommendations for your destination and group size, readiness checks that flag what's still missing before you go, and suggestions tailored to your group's vibe. A smart co-planner — not a replacement for your group's voice. SHARED ITINERARY A trip plan everyone can see and edit, in real time. Build day by day with category cards for flights, hotels, restaurants, events, and adventures. Add times, locations, notes, and attach confirmations directly to each item. Reorder, edit, or comment on anything — your group always sees the latest plan, no screenshots required. DECISIONS, NOT DEBATES Beach or hike? Pizza or sushi? Friday or Saturday for the dinner reservation? Run a quick poll, set a deadline, and let your group vote — without scrolling through 200 messages. See who's voted, who hasn't, and lock in decisions when the group lands on an answer. TASKS & RESPONSIBILITIES Who's booking the rental? Who's bringing the speaker? Assign tasks to specific people, set due dates, and track what's done. Get reminders before deadlines, and end the "I thought you were doing that" moments before they happen. EXPENSES, SPLIT FAIRLY Track shared costs as you go — accommodations, meals, gas, tickets, anything. Travita keeps a running tally, splits expenses across the group however you want (equal, percentage, or custom), and shows who owes what at any moment. Settling up at the end is one tap, not a math problem. SHARED DOCUMENTS Tickets, confirmations, passport scans, packing lists, reservation PDFs — everything your group needs in one place, accessible to everyone. Attach docs directly to itinerary items so they show up exactly where you need them, when you need them. IDEAS & INSPIRATION Save the restaurant your friend posted, that travel reel you couldn't stop watching, the hidden spot a local recommended. A shared library your whole group can browse, react to, and pull from when planning. Find something everyone loves? Move it straight into the itinerary in one tap. WHY TRAVITA Travel apps treat trips like checklists. Planning apps weren't built for groups. Travita is built for the way real groups actually plan — together, in one shared space, with the messy parts finally simplified. Start your next group trip with Travita.
