An AI road trip planner that sets your route, stops and pace

You describe the trip in one sentence or by voice, something like a loop around the Algarve or a drive down the Pacific coast, and the planner reads the places, the month and the group from your words. It turns that sentence into a route on a map, with each day drawn as a leg between stops and a pin for every place you will see.

The plan stays editable from the first draft. Drag a stop to another day, swap a town for the coast road instead, or make a day lighter, and the plan checker re-orders the route so the driving still makes sense.

Picture a road trip sentence built around Los Angeles in October: the plan places the city as a base with day 27 °C and night 15 °C, a sea at 19 °C, 10 hours of sunshine and 2 rain days, numbers the planner pulls from its climate data rather than a guess. The door-to-door leg from home is set at the very start of the plan, before a single stop is chosen.

A shorter loop works the same way. Antalya in March shows day 17 °C and night 6 °C with 9 rain days, a route that suits a balanced pace with the coast road as the spine, while Devon in November (day 11 °C, night 8 °C, 19 rain days) makes a relaxed long weekend close to home. Ibiza in August adds a third shape again, with day 28 °C, night 26 °C, a sea at 26 °C and 4 rain days, a route built around a packed string of coves rather than long legs between bases.

With a typical 28 days of annual leave to work with, a road trip usually needs to sit either side of a bank holiday or a school break to stretch further. The Bank Holiday planner turns the UK's public holidays into longer road trip windows, and the same plan then carries the route, the stops and the pace.

Families travelling in half term, the Easter holidays, the summer holidays or the Christmas holidays can set the pace to relaxed for the days with children in the car and let the plan checker keep the legs between stops shorter on those days.

One link opens the same route for everyone travelling, with roles for who can view and who can edit, so a co-driver can move a stop without sending a new file around. Group members can vote on a stop or leave a comment on a day, and the plan updates for everyone who holds the link.

The trip film turns the finished route into a short film on the map, following the flight arc, the bases and each day in order, ready to share once the road trip is booked.
