I spent my 27th birthday yesterday coding to solve my own frustration

I spent my 27th birthday yesterday coding a prototype to solve my own frustration.

Trying to plan that birthday and NYE in a group chat was a total nightmare—essential info buried under 300 messages and zero consensus. We have professional tools for work, but our personal lives are still stuck in high-entropy chat threads.

I’m building Squad In Sync to kill the chaos of messy group chats and move social planning into a structured logistics layer.

I'd love your feedback on how we can better bridge the gap between "chatting" and "actually meeting up."

Waiting list never get traction here. Wait until it's launched and remember to post again.
