Product updates, new features, tool guides, and honest comparisons — everything happening with Jettova.
Jettova's planning room is the part of the product that turns a stalled group chat into a booked trip. Here's a walkthrough of every step — vibe voting, the destination shortlist, the live veto loop, and what actually happens when the group hits Finalize.
9 min readMost AI trip planners hand you a complete 7-day itinerary the first time you ask. Jettova's storyboard generates one day at a time, lets you swap activities live, and waits for your approval before moving on. Here's why that produces a better trip.
7 min readGroup trips break at the booking step. One person ends up putting it all on a card and chasing reimbursements for weeks. Jettova's per-member booking flow gives every member their own checkout, their own card, their own confirmation — same trip, separate tickets.

Here's how Splitwise, a Google Sheet, and Jettova's settle-up flow actually compare across the moments that decide whether a group trip ends in clean math or a fight.

Jettova's video-to-trip flow looks at the actual frames — five of them, sampled across the duration — because captions describe a feeling and frames describe a place. This is the stage-by-stage engineering write-up of what happens between paste and rendered itinerary.

Jettova's video-import flow closes the gap: paste a public TikTok or YouTube URL, get a 7-day itinerary built around what's literally in the video. Here's how it works, what to expect, and where it beats the obvious alternatives.

8 min readSplitwise is the classic 'who owes whom' calculator. Jettova now does that too, with built-in Settle-Up, on top of planning and per-member booking. So the real question isn't which to use, it's whether you still need a separate Splitwise at all.

11 min readFor two decades, group trips meant one friend buying flights for everyone and chasing reimbursement for months. Per-member booking, now built into modern travel platforms, is a structural improvement that's worth understanding even if you're not using it yet.

7 min readGroup trips fail when half the group is on iPhone, half on Android, and someone's on a laptop. Jettova runs as a native iOS app, a native Android app, and a full web app that all share one live planning room — join from anywhere, and everyone sees the same trip update in seconds.
7 min readSpreadsheets organize a trip but don't decide it. Group chats decide nothing at all. Jettova is built around the one thing group trips actually get stuck on — making the call — and then carries the group all the way from a vague idea to a booked, split-up trip.
