The bracket.
Twenty destinations enter. One leaves. A four-round elimination that beats linear voting every time.
Beat Porto, Kyoto, and Barcelona in this demo path — then the itinerary layer picks up the story.
How it works
After everyone swipes, we take the top-20 combined shortlist and run it through a four-round elimination. Round 1 pairs 20 into 10. Round 2 takes 10 to 5. Round 3 cuts 5 to 3, then 3 to 2. Round 4 is the final.
Every round is a head-to-head: Lisbon vs Porto, Kyoto vs Tokyo, Tbilisi vs Yerevan. You tap the one you want. You don’t rank. You don’t score. You choose.
Why elimination beats voting
Linear voting — everyone gives each option a score 1–5 — is famously broken for groups. It rewards blandness: the destination nobody loves but nobody hates wins. Condorcet paradoxes make it worse.
Pairwise comparison, by contrast, converges on the option that beats the most other options head-to-head. It’s the Borda-count / round-robin tournament family, and it produces a clear winner every time with far less cognitive load on the participants.
Translation: elimination brackets produce trips people actually want to take.
Ties & super-saves
If a round ties in a group session, super-saves break it: any destination someone super-saved counts as 1.5 votes. If it’s still tied, the host casts the deciding vote.
