Added dinner at Versailles

Expense Split

Beach house deposit: $420 each

4 of 7 paid

Flight prices dropped $47

Book now before they go back up

You know the drill.

Every group trip starts with good vibes and ends with these three nightmares.

The endless group chat

Links get buried, plans change every five minutes, and that great restaurant someone found? Lost above 400 unread messages.

The awkward money conversation

"Who paid for what?" "Did you Venmo me?" Nobody wants to be the group accountant, and nobody wants to chase people for $42.

The five-app shuffle

Splitwise for money. Wanderlog for plans. WhatsApp for chaos. Google Docs for... everything else. That's four apps too many.

One app that does all of it. Plan, split, chat, settle. Done.

Features

Everything your trip needs. Nothing it doesn't.

Day-by-Day Itinerary

Build a visual trip schedule everyone can see and follow. Add activities, assign them to specific members, mark what's prepaid, and keep the whole crew on the same page.

With Google Maps integration and voting on suggestions.

AI Receipt Scanning

Snap a photo of any receipt — the app auto-scans every line item, tax, and tip. Then assign items to whoever actually ordered them.

No more "just divide it equally" when someone only had water.

Built-In Group Chat

Full group chat built into every trip — with channels, message reactions, polls for group decisions, GIF search, pinned messages, and threaded replies.

Everything stays in one place instead of scattered across apps.

One-Tap Settlement

See who owes who in one tap. Deep links directly into Venmo, Cash App, and Zelle with the amount and note pre-filled.

Payment states track from unpaid → pending → confirmed.

Live Trip Map

A Find My–style live map showing where everyone in the group is during the trip. No more "where are you??" texts.

Location sharing is optional and can be toggled anytime.

Social & Discovery

Follow friends, find your travel people, and build a community. Usernames, profiles, mutual follows, DMs, and an Explore feed.

OutTheChat isn't just a tool — it's where your travel circle lives.

Notice Board

Pin important updates everyone needs to see — flight changes, check-in times, house rules, packing lists.

No more "did you see my message?" buried in chat.

How It Works

From idea to itinerary. Four steps.

01

Create a trip

Name it, set the dates, pick a destination. Done in 30 seconds.

02

Invite your people

Share a link. They tap it, they're in. No friction.

03

Plan together

Build the itinerary, chat about details, vote on spots. Everyone's in the loop.

04

Split and settle

Scan receipts, split bills, settle up with one tap. No awkwardness.
