Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I’m Andrew, founder and product engineer at Koder. I’ve spent the last year building Shindig full-time because I got tired of watching great group plans die in WhatsApp.
We’ve all been there: you’re trying to organise a group trip, a stag do, or even a simple weekend BBQ, and within 24 hours, the actual details (dates, address, who’s bringing what, who paid for the deposit) get buried under 300 casual messages. Someone always ends up asking, "Wait, what's the plan again?"
I wanted to build a dedicated, beautiful home for group events that keeps everyone on the same page without forcing you into annoying spreadsheets or messy chat threads.
What Shindig brings to your next event:
* 💬 Thread-Aware Chat: Real-time chat built specifically for events—complete with read receipts, typing indicators, and formatted updates.
* 📊 Instant Decision Polls: Lock in dates and options without endless back-and-forth debate.
* 📋 Smart Task Assignment: Easily assign responsibilities (like who’s bringing the music or booking the venue).
* 🚗 Travel & Money Made Simple: Carpool organisation, expense splitting, shared photo galleries, and itineraries.
Whether you're planning a 10-day ski trip or just having friends over for a summer BBQ, Shindig gives your plan the structure it deserves.
I’d love for you to give it a spin at getshindig.app! I’ll be here all day answering questions, so please drop any feedback, thoughts, or feature requests in the comments below.
Cheers! 🥂 — Andrew
One thing that would make this even more useful for me would be the ability to pin a comment or announcement to the top of the event page, like a "what to bring" note or last minute update, so it doesn't get lost in the chat.
