DECK: SWIPE WITH FRIENDS, MATCH WITH EXPERIENCES Planning a day out shouldn’t feel like work. That’s why we built Deck—an AI-native platform that makes discovering and booking real-world experiences fast, fun, and social. Whether you’re hunting for rooftop bars with a view, quirky date nights, adrenaline adventures, or just a new plan with the group—Deck gets you there in seconds. Categories: Dining, Drinks, Entertainment, Culture, Adventure, Health & Wellness, Events & Festivals. PROMPT Tell Deck’s AI (aka Dextr) what you’re in the mood for. Use natural language—just like texting a friend. Whether it’s “somewhere vibey with outdoor seating in Shoreditch” or “a fun group activity near King’s Cross this Friday”—Dextr gets the vibe and curates the best of the internet for you. SWIPE Browse a curated deck of handpicked options. Swipe right on what you love—on your own or with friends. BOOK INSTANTLY No more 20-tab spirals or flaky plans. Just smart, instant recs—and soon, you’ll be able to match with friends too! BEYOND THE USUAL LISTS Deck doesn’t rely on a fixed catalogue. Our AI searches the web in real time to find the most exciting, high-quality experiences—then curates them for your profile and preferences. MULTIPLAYER Planning with friends should be fun, not frustrating. You can share your Deck, swipe together, and match on the perfect plan—without the group chat chaos. WHY DECK IS DIFFERENT Most apps dump you with a list. Deck understands your intent and turns decision-making into a game—personal, playful, and made for how we actually plan.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: SwipeOnDeck at weekly against The Forge's every 3 weeks. The Forge's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
