How it works

Six steps. One trip locked in.

The captain creates the crew, friends mark a year of weekends in 30 seconds, and the app ranks the dates that work for the most people. The whole trip lives in one place from invite to checkout.

01Captain mode

One captain forms the crew

Every crew has one head member — the captain. They name the crew (Lake Boys, Ski Mafia, Family 2026), pick a vibe, and that's it. They're the only one who can finalize trips, but everyone gets to vote.

  • Name & avatar
  • Trip type defaults
  • Captain controls
02Invitations

Captain texts invite links

Weekend Sync generates a single invite link. The captain blasts it in the existing group chat. Friends tap, install, and they're in the crew. New members can be added anytime — old ones can take a year off without losing their spot.

  • Magic link invites
  • iOS + Android + Web
  • Co-captains optional
03Availability

Everyone marks a year of weekends

30-second setup. Tap each weekend green (free), yellow (maybe), or red (booked). The 12-month rolling calendar updates as you go. Nobody asks 'what weekend works?' ever again.

  • Green / yellow / red
  • 12 months rolling
  • Reuses every trip
04Smart finder

Weekend Sync ranks the winners

Algorithm sorts every weekend by attendance. The captain sees a leaderboard — top weekends first, with exactly who's in, out, and on the fence. No spreadsheets, no Doodle polls.

  • Attendance ranking
  • Filter by trip type
  • Tiebreakers built-in
05Trip building

Vote on where, lock the dates

Crew throws destinations on the idea board (Airbnb links, cabins, beaches). Vote thumbs up, interested, or love it. The captain picks the winner and locks the weekend. RSVPs open instantly.

06Trip HQ

Plan inside the trip, not the group chat

Each trip gets its own threads — lodging, activities, food, transport — plus polls, photos, packing lists, and a built-in countdown. The group chat goes back to being for memes.

  • Threaded chat
  • Polls & RSVPs
  • Photo album
The captain's job

Less herding.
More going.

If you're the friend who always plans, Weekend Sync is built for you. You stay in control — but the app does the chasing.

Send one invite link. Watch availability fill in. Hit Find Best Weekend. Lock the dates. RSVP reminders go out automatically. The crew shows up.

You finally get to be on the trip — not the trip planner.
