A trip planner and travel journal for frequent international travellers. Plan with any AI, explore the best places in the world, and come home to a journal written from your photos.
Four steps, from first travel idea to finished book. Nothing to log and nothing to caption.
Plan with ChatGPT, Claude or any AI, then tap its link. The itinerary lands in the app, day by day. How AI itinerary import works
Find the best places in the world on the globe and add them in a tap. Each day is mapped, with distances and walks.
Nothing to switch on, nothing to caption. Your photos fill in each day as you go.
Every place named, every day written. Download it as a print-ready PDF or a short film.
Not using AI? Start from a ready-made itinerary, a forwarded flight or hotel booking, or a blank page.
Each one lights up, found from your photos. Open any trip, already written day by day.
Switch to Explore and zoom to any town or place. See why to go, and add it to your plan in a tap.
“As soon as I entered my flight information, the app created a personalized itinerary and recommended incredible restaurants, museums, landmarks, and hidden gems that I never would have found on my own. It felt like having a local guide in my pocket.”Bgoff01 · App Store review
“This app laid everything out day by day, matched to where I was, with descriptions of each place, like reliving the trip in order instead of squinting at a chaotic grid. Then, one click, and it became a printed photo book that reads like a travel journal. I’ve already ordered two.”Sabrigirly · App Store review
“I’m genuinely obsessed with this app. It automatically detects your international trips from your camera roll and turns them into these beautifully organized, magazine style travel journals... Seeing highlights from each place brought back so many memories I forgot I even had.”MR9012 · App Store review
Your photos are read and ranked on your iPhone and are never uploaded. The journal syncs only through your private iCloud.
The app plans the trip and keeps the journal. These are the travel guides behind it: where to go, what it is really like, and how to do it well.
A country we know well gets a page of its own: its cities, its guides, and the places worth the detour, all on one map.
Yes. Plan the trip with any AI chatbot, paste in the prompt the app gives you, and the chatbot replies with a link. Tap it and the whole itinerary is added to your plan, day by day. Claude users can turn on the Meridian Dispatch connector instead. The import guide has the details.
No. Start from one of our ready-made itineraries, forward a flight or hotel confirmation and let the trip assemble itself, or pick a country and dates and build it yourself.
Free to download, and free covers the last five years of your trips plus one trip in planning. Membership opens every trip you have ever taken and as many plans as you like.
Nowhere. No one has access to your photos but you: they are never copied or uploaded to any server. Trip detection runs on your iPhone, and the journal syncs only through your private iCloud.
Every trip exports as a print-ready PDF journal, laid out like a magazine, or as a short video cut from your own photographs, made entirely on your phone. Share either anywhere; the app itself posts nothing.
Membership is $19.99 per year, on the App Store. It opens every trip you have ever taken and as many plans as you like; without it, the free app still covers your last five years of trips and one trip in planning.
Never. The app cannot see your location at all: it never asks for location access, and nothing runs in the background while you travel. Trips are found from the geotags already on your photographs.
Most travel apps do half the job: TripIt and Wanderlog plan the trip, Polarsteps and TripMemo keep a record you write yourself. Meridian Dispatch plans from an AI itinerary or your bookings, then writes the travel journal for you, privately. Every price, side by side, is on the pricing page.
