Why most group trips never happen

  • -Dates that never get locked
  • -Plans scattered across notes, chats, and spreadsheets
  • -One person stuck organising everything
  • -Awkward money follow-ups after the trip

  • One shared plan from idea to execution
  • Dates locked in minutes, not weeks
  • Everyone aligned and contributing
  • Clear itinerary the whole group follows
  • Expenses handled in one place

Why TRYPS

Why not just use WhatsApp, Google Sheets, or Wanderlog?

  • WhatsAppgreat for chatting, but not built for locking dates, structuring trip plans, or tracking shared expenses. Important details disappear in the thread, and decisions often stall because nobody owns the workflow.

  • Google Sheetsflexible, but manual and fragmented. Someone still has to design the planning system, update it, and chase the group to keep it accurate.

  • Splitwiseuseful for settling costs, but it only solves one part of the trip. It does not help your group decide when to go, what to do, or how the plan comes together.

  • Wanderloguseful for itinerary planning, but not designed around group alignment first. TRYPS is built around the coordination problem: getting friends to decide, commit, and move forward together.

TRYPS combines planning, date coordination, and expense splitting in one shared flow built specifically for trips with friends.

One link. Everyone in. Dates locked. Plan built. Costs settled.

Real trips

Used by groups planning trips that actually happen

"We went from months of vague group-chat messages to a booked trip in less than a week. The date poll alone saved us hours."

Aarav M.organised a 7-person Barcelona trip

"Usually one person ends up managing everything. This time the plan felt shared, and the money part did not become awkward at the end."

Riya S.organised a bachelorette weekend in Jaipur

"The biggest win was that nobody had to install anything just to respond. That removed the usual friction immediately."

Kabir T.organised a 5-person road trip

What planning actually looks like

Instead of planning across chat, notes, and payment apps, your group gets one shared flow: invite, poll, plan, and split.
