A TripIt alternative for when you are not travelling alone.
Keep every ticket and booking offline, on the day you need it, and plan with the whole group: shared itinerary, expenses in any currency and a chat with polls. Free.
Free on iPhone, iPad and Android. Also on the web: Log in · Sign up
TripIt is excellent at one job: turning confirmation emails into a tidy itinerary for one traveller. Real-time flight alerts are part of TripIt Pro.
Kaikōdo is built for travelling with other people. The group edits the same plan, each person keeps their own documents, and the money and the decisions live in the same trip.

Questions, answered
Is Kaikōdo free?
Yes. Kaikōdo is completely free, with no Pro plan. Offline tickets, reminders, expenses and the group chat are included.
Can Kaikōdo read my booking emails like TripIt?
Not yet. You upload bookings as PDFs or photos and assign them to a day and a traveller. They then open offline on the right day.

Yes, it works the same for one person. Its extras, like shared expenses and the chat, shine when you travel with others.
