For the trip that’s been “a maybe” since March.
Everyone drops their budget, dates, and non-negotiables. That Friend reads the room, proposes the decision, and keeps the plan, notes, and map in one place, so your group trip planning doesn’t live in 200 unread texts.
Free for groups up to 6. No app to download.
Lisbon & the Algarve
19–27 SEPT · 6 TRAVELLERS
THAT FRIEND
Day 3 has three dinners and no lunch. Want me to move one?
01
What they can spend on flights, a bed, and food. The pace they want, and the one thing they'd rather not compromise on.
02
Instead of another "thoughts?", you get a decision card: two real options, what each costs, who it suits.
03
Notes, links, restaurant recs, and saved spots live in one place, so you can see the flow of the trip at a glance.
The workspace
Recommendations, links, and saved places all live in the same trip plan, so That Friend can build the itinerary out of them instead of you scrolling back through six months of messages.
Everything in one place.
Your saved recommendations live everywhere: notes, texts, old Google Docs. Add them here instead, and see every spot on a live map right next to the plan.
A plan that makes sense.
That Friend turns your saved spots into day-by-day itineraries, grouped by neighborhood so you’re not crossing the city twice in one day. Edit anything, anytime. It’s your plan, just organized.

The reminders send themselves
Someone always ends up asking three times about dates, deposits, and who still owes for the car. That Friend sends the reminders, tracks who’s answered, and closes the loop once everyone has.
You stay the friend who’s excited about the trip.
It works over WhatsApp too. Forward a recommendation you get from a friend, and it’s added to the trip automatically.

“someone told me to go to o frade in lisbon, small place, book ahead”
Added O Frade to Day 2, evening. It takes reservations 30 days out. Want me to put it to the group?
Sent to the group · Tuesday
Flights to Lisbon are up $60 since Friday. Four of you have booked. Jonah and Priya, this is the last week the group is on the same flight.
Nudged privately
Sam, you owe Maya $140 for the villa deposit. Want me to send her your half now?
Decision closed
Five of six picked the split week. Lagos nights are on the map, and I moved Sunday dinner to the coast.
Who it’s for
Two people can plan in a text thread. Five can’t. That Friend is built for the trips where everyone has a different budget, a different week off and a different idea of a good time, and where the plan usually dies before anyone books.
Eight people, one bride, six different budgets. Costs are visible from the start, so nobody gets priced out or stuck footing the bill.
College friends now live in four different cities. Everyone answers what they can, and the plan still lands close enough to work for the group.
One person's celebration, everyone else's spending. The birthday person gets say on the things that matter and doesn't have to run logistics.
Two families, different nap schedules, one house. Days get built around the constraints instead of clashing under them.
One destination, real work hours built in. That Friend blocks out who's got a 9am standup and who needs a quiet morning, and plans the actual trip around it, not instead of it.
The trip you've talked about for three years never got submitted. This is the year That Friend is ready for it.
“We’ve talked about this trip for three years. We’re actually going in June.”
