About Whip
Whip is for getting a scattered group to commit to a time: a film, a show, drinks, coffee, a walk. One person organises; everyone else opens the link wherever it was sent and needs no account and no app.
How a plan works
The organiser makes a plan and sends its link. Anyone with the link can add a time, with a place, a format and a link to a session page if they like. Everyone answers each time Yes, If need be or No. Times are sorted by the most yeses, then the most if-need-bes, and the best one is marked as leading. When it is clear, the organiser locks it in, and everyone sees the time, a calendar entry and the ticket link. The organiser can reopen the vote.
Who sees what
Everyone with a plan's link sees the plan: the names people gave, their answers and their notes. Treat the link like the group chat it came from. The organiser's own link carries a secret that lets them lock and edit; keep it to yourself.
How long plans are kept
A plan, with its names, answers and notes, is deleted 60 days after the date it was locked in for, or 60 days after it was made if it was never locked in. Request logs do not carry names.
The deal
Whip is free, with no ads and no affiliate links. It is provided as is, by Lotlsoft, without promises about uptime. Do not use it for anything unlawful or to harass anyone. Whip never sends email or texts; it is up to you who you share a link with. Privacy has the details.
