Plan2Date

Plan2Date is a mobile app (with a lightweight web companion) that matches people by availability and preferred date formats, then turns a match into a scheduled plan within minutes. Instead of endless messaging, users pick a 2-hour time window, neighborhood radius, budget range, and date style (coffee walk, museum, tacos, etc.). The app proposes 2-3 concrete itineraries using partner venues and public options, and both users confirm with one tap. Built-in “flake friction” reduces no-shows: optional small refundable deposits, calendar holds, and a simple reliability score based on confirmed attendance. Safety is practical, not performative: check-in timers, shareable plans, and easy reporting. This is not magic—many users still won’t convert—but it’s designed to optimize for the only outcome that matters: meeting in person safely and quickly.
