TadaPlan
Read full descriptionHide full description
Describe your event in a few sentences. TadaPlan generates the complete plan: dated backward schedule, budget, registrations and a 3D seating chart. Magic up front, a real critical-path engine behind. FROM CLUB BARBECUE TO FESTIVAL Wedding, charity gala, tournament, general assembly, festival: describe the event, its date and its size β the AI proposes a plan of dozens of dated, dependency-aware tasks in about a minute. ASK TADAPLAN Ask a question about your event in plain language β "Am I on track?", "Add a tasting the day before" β and the AI answers, then acts directly on your plan. NEW: SEATING IN INTERACTIVE 3D Explore your room in interactive 3D: rotate the view, drag tables and guests, and let the solver seat everyone by your rules β "keep the Smiths together, Grandma away from the speakers". Impossible conflicts are flagged live. A REAL BACKWARD SCHEDULE, NOT A TO-DO LIST TadaPlan computes your event's critical path (CPM, calculated in code, never guessed): you instantly see which tasks drive the date, and the app flags risks in advance β "13 days short" β not the day after the disaster. EVENT DAY, MINUTE BY MINUTE The AI generates your run-of-show: every moment to the minute, cascading recalculation when a slot slips, locked anchors for the key highlights.

Seating Charts
Read full descriptionHide full description
Plan every seat with confidence and create a professional seating chart for your wedding, reception, party, conference, or special event. The app gives you everything you need to build your room layout, organize guest lists, assign seats, and prepare a plan that is easy to share. Start with an empty room or choose from ready-made layouts such as a ballroom reception, garden ceremony, cocktail reception, or gala dinner. Select the room size that suits your event, then add, move, rotate, resize, duplicate, or remove tables and other elements directly on the floor plan. Adding guests is quick and flexible. Type or paste a list, import people from your contacts, upload a CSV spreadsheet from Excel, Numbers, or Google Sheets, or try the app with sample guests. Search guests, organize groups, track who still needs a seat, and see the number of available places at a glance. Seat guests manually with simple drag-and-drop controls or use automatic seating to fill tables while keeping groups together whenever capacity allows. Built-in checks help confirm that every guest has a seat and that no table is over capacity. Before the event, review your complete plan with a clear summary of tables, seats, seated guests, and guests still waiting to be assigned. When everything is ready, export the seating plan as a PDF for your venue, planner, caterer, or event team. You can begin without creating an account and add one later. Sign in to keep your charts available across your devices. Key features include: β’ Flexible room sizes and event templates β’ Visual floor-plan editor β’ Tables, chairs, seat rows, and event elements β’ Guest list import from contacts or spreadsheets β’ Manual and automatic seating β’ Group and party-size support β’ Seating and capacity checks β’ Search and seating-status filters β’ PDF export β’ Cross-device synchronization From the first guest to the final table, the app keeps your event organized and helps you create a seating plan everyone can understand.
