Seating Planner in 3 Minutes

Turn professional banquet seating expertise into a tool anyone can use in minutes

Inspiration: Quality Service

Professional event planning teams design seating arrangements for private dinners by hand, weighing each guest's status, relationships, conversational chemistry, and potential conflicts so every table feels harmonious.

Why Ordinary People Can't Access It

Ordinary people hosting weddings, thank-you dinners, or family gatherings have to figure out seating from scratch: where elders should sit, keeping feuding guests apart, pairing people with shared topics. It takes half a day of guesswork, easily offends someone, and hiring professional planners is too expensive for most families.

AI-Powered Equalizer

Users simply paste a guest list with brief relationship notes, and AI applies social etiquette rules and relationship-graph reasoning to balance seniority, closeness, dietary restrictions, and conversational fit—producing a complete seating chart in under 3 minutes, with drag-and-drop fine-tuning and instant re-planning when guests change.

Key Features

  • Paste a guest list and get a full seating chart in 3 minutes
  • Auto-detects relationship conflicts so feuding guests never sit together
  • Balances status and closeness to assign head table and honor seats
  • Respects dietary restrictions and language preferences to avoid awkward tables
  • Handles last-minute guest changes with one-tap re-planning and seat notes

Target Users

Couples planning weddings, company annual dinner organizers, hosts of birthdays and thank-you banquets

Business Model

Pay-per-event pricing + wedding-season subscription bundles + revenue-share partnerships with restaurants and wedding planning agencies
