1

Create an Event

Give it a name, set the date and time, choose a voting style (stars or simple yes/no), and optionally set a voting deadline.

2

Invite Your Group

Add friends by email. They'll get access as soon as they log in — no app download needed, it's all on the web.

3

Suggest Places

Search for restaurants, bars, cafes, or any venue via Google Places. Each suggestion shows photos, ratings, and a map link.

4

Everyone Votes

Rate each place with 1–5 stars, or use the quick Yes / No / If needed system. Votes are tallied in real time.

5

See the Results

A live chart shows scores, rankings, and the winner. The organizer can set a deadline after which voting locks automatically.

6

Go There!

Once the group has decided, everyone knows where to go. The winning place's Google Maps link is one tap away.

Two Ways to Vote

Choose the voting style that fits your group

Numeric (1–5 Stars)

Each participant rates every place from 1 to 5 stars. The place with the highest total score wins.

4/5

Best for nuanced preferences

Simple (Yes / No / If needed)

Quick and decisive. Each participant votes Yes, No, or If needed for every place. Most "Yes" votes wins.

YesIf neededNo

Best for quick group decisions
