In partnership with social scheduling start-up INBE, we developed a straightforward AI-powered scheduling tool designed to make organizing social events easier. Recognizing the hassle involved in coordinating meetings or events, especially with multiple participants, our aim was to create a solution that simplifies this process.
The Problem
Planning social gatherings often involves a lot of back-and-forth communication. Each additional participant typically complicates the process, leading to lengthy discussions and difficulty in making decisions.
Our Solution
We created a smart chat room engine that automates much of the event planning process. This engine works by:
Orchestrating events based on shared preferences and schedules, streamlining the decision-making process.
Smart Chat: A real-time chat solution that helps groups of friends organize events by providing timely and relevant information.
NLP Technology: Implements Natural Language Processing to identify references to venues and locations within conversations, automatically offering venue information to assist in planning.
Geolocation and Optimization: Utilizes geolocation data and shortest path algorithms to suggest conveniently located venues for all participants.
Noise Reduction: Features designed to minimize distractions by identifying and managing secondary conversation threads.
Focus on Key Information: Ensures that essential decisions, information, and guidance remain highlighted, helping the organizer keep discussions on track.
Conclusion
Our collaboration with INBE led to the development of a user-friendly platform that addresses the common challenges of planning social events. By leveraging AI, we've managed to reduce the complexity and time investment typically required, allowing friends to focus more on enjoying their gatherings and less on organizing them.
