PLANIT
We want to revolutionize the way people plan events. Through our mobile application, we intend to make event planning as easy as ordering an Uber, or making a payment on Venmo. With its convenient and easy to use design, PlanIt is largely scalable to any user planning any type of event, eventually becoming the “go to” application for event planning.

Throw an amazing party in no time. You choose the event, we help you #PlanIt!
30 Second Elevator Pitch
At PlanIt, we help our users plan amazing events in no time. By simply inputting their location, event preference, budget, and group size, users can then be linked to venues and independent professionals in their area, forming business opportunities for all. In addition, PlanIt will offer a variety of pre-made events, creating a social platform where all ‘planners’ can connect by sharing and reviewing events. Our revenue model will be based on some combination of a subscription model, pay-per-click advertising, and per-event fees.

Solution? Use PlanIt.
-
For invitations, 40.4% of our survey responses indicated that getting the whole group together was their biggest pain. To address this problem, PlanIt allows editing of the guest-list before sending the final invites, which will be more formal and reliable than Facebook RSVPs. This allows for better planning and budgeting according to the number of attendees, and will be done by studying user behavior and developing a UI design that encourages honest and reliable actions by users.
-
Regarding venues, reviews will be more trustworthy and catered to the user, as the ones featured first will be those written by common connections or people of similar background.
-
In addition to connecting users to venues, PlanIt allows them to discover young professionals (e.g. aspiring DJs, chefs, start-ups), employing a LinkedIn like feature where young businesses can be promoted to students, introducing the users to novel experiences.
Without PlanIt, planning an event requires using multiple different platforms for each aspect of the plan, wasting the users time and effort.
Therefore, the goal of PlanIt is to be the ultimate platform for planning events by not only addressing the gaps of its competitors, but also by creating an all-in-one application, combining the key functions of pre-existing services: the convenience, ease of use, and social aspect of Facebook, the connection to venues of Yelp, the inspiration board of Pinterest, and the network between similar people of Eventbrite.

We are a group of Brandeis University students, studying a combination of Economics, Computer Science, and Business, therefore we understand both the technical and business side of PlanIt.
We are a team from all over the world and part of different social circles and organizations on campus, so we know the different ways students have fun and the different events they attend.
PlanIt came about as a solution to a problem we have all experienced -- lacking the time and knowledge to plan an event. As students, we emphasize with our customers and as planners, we understand the problem. #PlanIt
