Every family takes thousands of photos.
Very few remember the stories behind them.
Buddy was born because one father wanted to change that.

Why Buddy Exists
3 / 10
💚
A problem disguised as a spreadsheet
Every group trip has this problem. We built the solution.
😩
The problem every group trip has
Someone pays for the hotel. Someone else for fuel. Someone covers lunch. By day two, nobody knows who owes who what. By day three there's tension.
Money is the invisible third wheel on every group trip.
📱
What existed before Buddy
Generic expense apps. Splitwise — designed for roommates, not road trips. Spreadsheets. WhatsApp voice notes saying "I think you owe me ₹480 for the rambutan."
Nothing built for the warmth and chaos of Indian family travel.
🌿
What Buddy changes
Buddy handles all of it quietly. Add an expense in 5 seconds. See settlements instantly. Never do mental arithmetic again.
But more than that — Buddy captures the story of the trip.
We are not building an expense app. We are building the world's best Family Adventure Companion.

The family that started it all
Buddy was born from a real Wayanad trip in June 2026. These six are the reason it exists.

Built Buddy during the trip itself and shipped before the drive home. Couldn't stop thinking about UX improvements while trekking Chembra Peak.
