PhotoFootball
The whole side, muddy and grinning, after a game that nearly did not have enough players.
Making it effortless to get together.
Less coordination. More together.
The problem
The game was never the hard part.
Twenty messages to find out four people are free. A poll nobody answers. One person quietly doing all the organising until they stop, and then it just… stops happening.
Recurring informal gatherings do not need a project. They need a shared place to say I’ll probably be there around six — and to see that five other people said the same thing.

Saturday · the usual spot
6 likely · 2 maybe
2 seats going from Northside
That is the whole product. Everything else is optional.
How it works
Three things. That’s it.
No host. No guest list. No invitations to chase. You are not organising an event — you are telling the people who already care where you will be.
Follow a spot
The court, the beach, the café, the trailhead. A spot is permanent — it outlives any one session, and the regulars are already there.
Say you’re going
A date, roughly when, and how likely you are — from maybe to yes. Honest beats definite. Change it whenever you like.
See who else is in
Everyone following that spot finds out. Enough people say yes, and the thing happens — without anyone having run it.
Chat bots
No new app for the Tuesday game.
The hardest part of a gathering tool is not the software — it is getting eight people to install something. So don’t. ToGethered lives in the chat your group is already in.
Telegram
Live nowWorking today. Follow a spot, say you are going, and hear when someone else is — without leaving the chat.
Where most groups actually argue about kick-off time. Same bot, same account — we want it, and it is not built yet.
AI skill
In plansAdd ToGethered to ChatGPT, Claude or whichever agent you already talk to, and make the plan from there.

AI assistant
Just say it. No commands to remember.
Two ways to use it. Add it to the group and it follows along with the thread everyone is already having. Or message the bot on its own and just tell it what you are doing — “at the courts Saturday around six, probably” — the way you would tell a person.
Half the coordination already happens in the chat: “can’t do Thursday”, “Friday works”, “I can take three in the car”. Today someone has to notice that and update the plan. Soon it will notice, and offer to move the session, drop you off the list, or attach the lift.
- It proposes; you decide. Nothing changes until somebody taps yes. An AI that quietly edits your Saturday because it misread a message is worse than no AI.
- Only chats you add it to. It is a bot in a group — it reads that group, because you put it there, and nothing else.
Lifts
Getting there is half of whether you go.
A board that will not fit in a hatchback. A trailhead with no bus. Three bikes and one rack. Say I need a lift or I can offer one, add the area you are leaving from, how many seats, and a note if it helps.
Then two humans sort it out between themselves — which they were always going to do better than an algorithm.
- 🚫 Nothing pairs you up automatically
- 🚫 No routes or directions
- 🚫 No payments — petrol money is between you two

Your plans, your call
You decide who knows where you'll be.
Where you are going on Saturday is not a small thing to publish. So it is not published by default — you pick the room.
Keep a gathering to the people you already know, and it behaves like a private group chat. Open it to the regulars at a spot, and you meet the people who love the same thing at the same place. Open it to everyone, and it is a front door. Same tool, three very different Saturdays — and it is your call, every time.
One rule never bends: a signed-out stranger never sees who you are. They can see a place is alive — four people, two swimming — and nothing that identifies anyone. Being findable should not mean being watched.
Just your people
Like a group chat that nobody has to admin. The regulars you already know, and nobody else.
Whoever follows the spot
The people who care about that court, that break, that café. Familiar faces you have not met yet.
Anyone
Open the door. Good for a club that wants to grow, or a night that is better with strangers in it.
If it grows
Start light. Add structure only if you need it.
Most gatherings never need more than the first rung — and that is the design, not a limitation. But when one does grow, the people, the place and the plan travel with it instead of being retyped somewhere else.
01
ToGethered assembles the people
Say where you will be and roughly when. Enough people show up. Nobody had to organise anything.
- no host
- no guest list
- no admin
02
GameBoard.live runs the game
When the gathering turns into an actual match, start a live scoreboard anyone can follow — on a phone, a tablet or the big screen.
- carries the players
- carries the location
- carries the date and time
03
RSVP.express confirms the plan
When an informal gathering becomes structured — a tournament, a fixture, anything people must commit to — swap ambient "probably" for firm, countable RSVPs.
- carries who was already interested
- carries the spot
- carries the date and time
04
Eventius runs the whole event
When the occasion outgrows a gathering entirely, it graduates to full planning: invitations, schedules, who brings what, tasks and budget.
- carries the people
- carries the place
- carries the plan so far
Coming with the app
ToGethered Moments
The point was never the app. It was the evening you nearly skipped, the swell that showed up, the table that finally formed. Moments is where those get kept — photos, clips, stories, scorecards and routes, contributed by the people who were there.
Photo
ScorecardBasketball
A final score worth keeping, from a court where the teams were picked twenty minutes earlier.
ClipHockey
Fifteen seconds of a goal nobody filmed on purpose and everybody wanted afterwards.
PhotoKitesurfing
Four kites up on a window that lasted two hours and was very nearly missed.
ClipWindsurfing
A first proper planing run, filmed from the beach by someone who offered a lift.
PhotoPaddleboarding
Flat water, low sun, three boards and nobody in a hurry.
PhotoCatan
The board at the exact moment the longest road changed hands.
MemoryChess
The first win against someone who had beaten you every week for a month.
StoryD&D
The session write-up that turned a three-hour argument about a door into a legend.
RouteHiking
The ridge line, saved and passed on to the next group who asked where it was.
MemoryClimbing
A project finally sent, with the person who belayed it every attempt.
PhotoTrail running
Six people at a gate at six in the morning, which is its own achievement.
PhotoRoad
The café stop that is, if everyone is honest, the actual reason for the ride.
RouteGravel
A loop that turned out far better than the map suggested, shared so others can steal it.
ClipMTB
A clean run through the section everyone else walked.
These are illustrations of the idea, not real contributions — Moments ships with the app, and we would rather show you the concept honestly than invent a community that does not exist yet.
Spending time together matters.
Everything else here is just plumbing. Pick a spot, say when you are going, and let the people who would have come anyway find you.
