Group trips do not get messy because the group has no ideas. They get messy when dates, votes, reservations, and last-minute changes are scattered across different places, and one person has to keep updating everyone. GroupTrip gives everyone one place to go to find what the group decided, what is happening next, and where to meet. GET FROM MAYBE TO DECIDED Share possible dates, find out availability, track who is coming, and use polls when the group needs to choose. Decisions remain visible and can become part of the shared plan rather than disappearing into an old conversation. KEEP ONE CURRENT PLAN Put stays, reservations, activities, addresses, notes, and open time in a plan the whole group can find. When something changes, everyone can get the updates instead of relying on screenshots or forwarded messages. KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT Use rally points, live updates, traveler status, and Tonight’s Plan to show where to meet, who is on the way, and what the group is doing next. ASK SCOUT WHAT FITS RIGHT NOW Scout uses the trip’s destination, dates, home base, local time, weather, and existing plans to recommend options that fit the actual moment. Turn a suggestion into a poll, add it to the plan, or use it as the group’s next rally point. BRING THE GROUP IN WITH ONE LINK Share the private trip link in the chat your group already uses. Guests can open the trip from a browser without installing another app. KEEP THE TRIP TOGETHER AFTERWARD Add photos, updates, receipts and highlights while the trip is happening, then keep the shared record and recap with the plans and decisions that shaped it. GroupTrip works for friend weekends, birthdays, bachelor and bachelorette trips, family reunions, wedding weekends, festivals, team off-sites and any trip where several people need to know what was decided and what happens next. GroupTrip helps your group: • Compare dates and collect RSVPs • Vote on restaurants, activities and other choices • Build and share the current itinerary • Turn Scout recommendations into trip actions • Create rally points and coordinate meetups • Share live changes with the whole group • Keep photos, updates and the trip recap together
