Save the date for my birthday party! forward is the new app that makes your event planning simpler than ever. ▶ Create your event ▶ Invite friends via their phone number ▶ Find the best date ▶ Receive RSVP instantly ▶ Set agendas for all guests Time for fun!
For every weekend, party, or holiday we plan with friends, we find ourselves creating yet another endless WhatsApp conversation just to gather availabilities, RSVPs, and make sure everyone is on the same page regarding event details. It's also a hassle to collect everyone's email addresses just to send them a 'save the date' for their calendars, ensuring they actually receive it, and often necessitating several follow-up messages. All of this complexity for something as simple, joyful, and essential as getting together with friends in real life to create lasting memories :)

For the past two years, I've been envisioning the simplest solution for planning events with friends. After all, everyone has a phone number, so why hasn't there been a dedicated tool for invitations via phone numbers ?
Guided by a UX expert, I've meticulously crafted user-friendly screens and forms to facilitate the creation of events invitations. We've focused on making it as easy as possible to invite people to a party, guaranteeing that 100% of guests receive the invitation, and swiftly collecting their responses.
We've conceived with my top developer team, a unique algorithm capable of determining whether guests are available or have already committed to something else on Forward for the chosen date.

Congrats on the launch! How does this compare to just a calendar invite or even a discussion in a group chat? I personally have never had any issues with planning events using the two tools I mentioned earlier, so I'm wondering how you came up with this idea and what specific pain points it solves?
Absolutely love the UI though!
Enfin une app qui va nous changer la vie de rdv perso ! trop hate de convertir tous mes amis à se retrouver sur forward !
Congrats on the launch!
The sheer simplicity of organizing gatherings through phone numbers without the back-and-forth across platforms is such a relief. It's refreshing to see a tool that streamlines this process, placing the emphasis back on the joy of the gathering rather than the logistics🔥
I've been using Facebook for this for years now, but Facebook is plain evil. I hope forward works. But I see your product page is in French only. Can we use it in english?
