Ask for ideas on your next holiday
Planning a trip with friends? Let Skoutee collect destination ideas, date preferences, and budgets from everyone — without the group chat chaos.
The Problem
Planning a group holiday is a nightmare
It always starts the same way: someone drops "We should go on holiday together!" in the group chat. Everyone's excited. Then the questions start. Where? When? How much? Someone suggests Bali. Someone else wants Portugal. Three people haven't read the chat. One person responds with "I'm flexible" (which helps no one).
Two weeks later, you've had 47 messages about destinations, zero about dates, and someone just suggested a completely new country. The person who started the conversation has given up and is secretly booking a solo trip.
Coordinating a group holiday shouldn't require a project manager. But without structure, it always turns into chaos.
The Solution
Let Skoutee ask your friends for you
With Skoutee, you describe what you're planning once — "ask the group where they'd like to go and when they're free" — and the AI agent does the rest. It messages each friend individually, asks the right questions, and collects their answers in one clean overview.
No more group chat noise. No more "did anyone ask Tom?" No more spreadsheets. Just a clear picture of everyone's preferences, ready for you to pick the winner and start booking.
Step by step
How to set up your holiday scout
From "where should we go?" to a clear plan in under 2 minutes of setup.
Describe what you're planning
Tell Skoutee what you need: "Ask my friends where they'd like to go on holiday this summer and what dates work for them." Skoutee creates the right questions — destination preferences, available dates, budget range, and travel style (adventure, relaxation, city trip). You can add specifics like "we're thinking Europe" or keep it fully open.
Add your friend group
Add your friends manually or import them from a contact list. Include their preferred contact channel — WhatsApp, SMS, or email. Skoutee reaches each friend on the channel they actually check, so no one misses the message.
Choose channels & set a deadline
Pick when to send — right away or scheduled for the weekend when people have time to think. Set a deadline like "please respond by Friday" so you can start booking. Skoutee sends friendly reminders to anyone who hasn't answered yet.
Launch & gather ideas
Hit launch. Skoutee personally messages each friend, collects their destination ideas, date preferences, and budget. You get a clean dashboard showing everyone's input side by side — making it easy to find the destination and dates that work for the most people.
Benefits
Why your friend group will love this
Turn months of planning into days. Everyone gets a say, no one gets annoyed.
Skip the endless group chat
No more scrolling through 200 messages to figure out who said what. Skoutee collects structured answers from everyone.
Discover destinations you'd never think of
Everyone suggests ideas privately — no groupthink. You'll get genuine, diverse suggestions instead of everyone just agreeing with the first idea.
Find dates that actually work
Skoutee collects availability from everyone and shows you the overlapping dates at a glance. No more back-and-forth calendaring.
Everyone feels heard
Each friend gets a personal message and space to share their ideas. No one's suggestion gets buried in a chat flood.
Budget-friendly planning
Collect budget ranges upfront so you can find a destination that works for everyone's wallet — no awkward conversations later.
From chaos to booked in days
What usually takes weeks of back-and-forth gets condensed into a few days. Collect, compare, decide, book.
Pro tips
Best practices for holiday planning scouts
Ask for top 3 destination ideas instead of just one — it gives you more overlap to work with.
Include a budget range question (e.g. €500–€1000 per person) to avoid surprises later.
Set a clear deadline — friends are more likely to respond when there's a date to work towards.
Add a question about travel style (beach, adventure, city, nature) to find common ground.
Use the "any dates that DON'T work" approach — it's often easier for people to exclude dates than commit to specific ones.
