Problem
Group trip planning typically relies on group chats and spreadsheets, where ideas get buried, one person ends up doing all the work, and the loudest voice wins. This fragmented approach makes it difficult to keep track of suggestions, reach consensus, and ensure the final plan fits everyone's preferences.
Solution
Visby provides a collaborative online platform for planning group trips without requiring downloads or accounts. Users create a shared trip board where friends can add and vote on stays, food, and activities, while taste profiles tailor recommendations to the group's preferences. The platform offers day-by-day itineraries, ranked voting to make decisions obvious, and built-in expense tracking to simplify cost sharing. All features are accessible from any phone or laptop via a single shared link, with changes syncing in real-time for the whole group.
Target Audience
Primary users are groups of friends or family planning trips together, as well as solo travelers who want a structured planning tool. The platform is designed for anyone who wants to avoid the chaos of group chat planning and the manual work of spreadsheets.
