Planning anything with friends turns into 40 messages and no decision. WhereTo: Group Plans fixes that. Create a plan, drop one link in your group chat, and everyone votes straight from it — no app to install, no account to make. When the deadline passes, the most-voted idea wins automatically and the whole group is told. **DECIDE TOGETHER** • One vote per person — tap a different idea and your vote simply moves. • Paste any link (a restaurant, an Airbnb, a venue) and it becomes a clean card with the name and photo. • Set a deadline and WhereTo: Group Plans does the chasing: a reminder before voting closes, a note the moment it's decided. **FIND THE DAY THAT FITS** • Everyone picks up to two days that suit them. • WhereTo: Group Plans shows how many can make each day and highlights the best fit. • If two days tie, the people with no other option win the tie — so the most people can actually come. • Add the winning day straight to your calendar. **MONEY, WITHOUT THE AWKWARD PART** • Someone covered the bill? Pick who paid — their share settles automatically. • Split evenly, or give each person their own amount. • WhereTo: Group Plans gently reminds anyone unpaid every few days, so nobody has to beg. • WhereTo: Group Plans never touches your money — it only keeps score. You pay your friends directly, the way you always do. **ALIVE BEFORE, REMEMBERED AFTER** • Give the plan a living animated poster — aurora, sunset, disco, waves, confetti — or your own photo. • Once it's decided, the photo wall opens so everyone can drop in pictures from the night. **BUILT FOR REAL GROUPS** • Friends vote from the link with zero install. Their plans are even saved for them, on their device. • Group notes, co-hosts, reminders, and a clear "who's still deciding" — all in one place. Nights out, dinners, birthdays, road trips, team events, group gifts — if a group has to agree on something, WhereTo: Group Plans gets you there. **FREE — AND PRO** Voting, deciding, day-finding, notes, and photos are free for everyone, always. Organizers can unlock WhereTo: Group Plans Pro for cost splitting and co-hosts. Your very first plan includes the full toolkit free. WhereTo: Group Plans never sells your data, never uploads your contacts, and never touches your group's money.
