Build an AI Plans Coordinator for Friend Groups

1. 1

   Serve the organizer, delight the group

   One person feels the pain and will set anything up; everyone else must contribute with zero-install taps on a link. Any flow that requires the whole group to download an app is dead before Saturday.

2. 2

   Close the loop or do not bother

   Polls exist; the value is the finished plan: date locked, venue proposed against dietary and budget constraints, table booked, calendar invites out, reminder the day before. Measure yourself on plans completed, not messages sent.

3. 3

   Make recurrence the retention engine

   After a successful dinner, offer to make it monthly: same crew, rotating constraint handling, automatic date-finding each cycle. Recurring groups are where a subscription becomes obviously worth it.

4. 4

   Handle the drop-out gracefully

   The real world of group plans is the Thursday cancellation. Auto-propose the fallback (shift the date, proceed with five, rebook the table size) instead of letting the thread collapse into silence; this moment is where you earn loyalty.

5. 5

   Monetize the group, partner with venues carefully

   A small monthly fee per active group keeps incentives clean. Restaurant partnerships (guaranteed parties on slow nights) can add revenue later, but never let placement money decide recommendations silently.

6. 6

   Grow group to group

   Every attendee experiences the product working and belongs to other groups; end each completed plan with a light 'start one for your crew' hook. The product's output is its own advertisement.
