This one works. Switch tabs, or add an expense under Money.

Sam asks in the group chat: ok so how much do I owe for dinner?

Split costs as you go. Settle up in seconds.

Add an expense, pick who's in, and Cotravel does the math. At the end of the trip everyone sees exactly who owes whom. The money lives right next to the plan it belongs to.

  • Split evenly with everyone, or just the people involved
  • One clear "who owes whom" at the end
  • No daily limits, no ads, no paywall

Jordan asks in the group chat: what time do Maya and Alex land?

The itinerary, the bookings, and the group chat, finally in one place.

Build the day-by-day plan, track everyone's flights and stays, and talk it all through right where the plan lives. Your whole crew can see and edit, so the trip stops depending on one person babysitting a spreadsheet.

  • A shared itinerary everyone can edit, in real time
  • Each traveler's flights and stays, all in view
  • Group chat attached to the plan, not a separate thread

Alex asks in the group chat: do we each have to pay for this app?

Free for everyone you invite. No per-person fees.

Most trip apps make one person pay, and then only they get the good stuff. Cotravel is free for your entire group, and there's no wall between you and your friends.

  • Everyone gets the full experience, free
  • Invite by link or email. Friends join in a tap
  • No "upgrade so your group can" anything

Jordan asks in the group chat: does anyone know the plan for tonight?

Ask about your trip, not the whole internet.

Cotravel's assistant can see your actual itinerary, budget, and bookings, so it answers questions about your plan, not generic suggestions you have to fact-check.

Planning something specific?

Timelines, budgets, and checklists for the trips friend groups actually take.

Before you invite the crew

Quick answers to what people ask first.

Cotravel is a free group trip planning app for friends. Your group shares one itinerary, splits costs and settles up, keeps everyone’s flights and stays in view, and chats right next to the plan, on the web, iPhone, and Android.

Yes. Planning a trip, inviting your group, splitting costs, and chatting are all free for everyone in the trip, not just the person who created it.

They join free with a tap from your invite link. No one in your group ever hits a paywall to see or edit the plan.

Wanderlog's best features are Pro, and Pro only helps the person who paid. The rest of the group stays on the free version. Cotravel keeps the whole group on the full experience, free. Compare Cotravel and Wanderlog.

Splitwise is an expense ledger, and its free tier now limits how many expenses you can add each day and shows ads. Cotravel’s splitting has no daily limits or ads, and it lives inside the trip itself, next to the itinerary, bookings, and group chat. Compare Cotravel and Splitwise.

No. Splitting and settle-up are built into the trip. No daily limits, no separate app to reconcile later.
