You Owe Me
IdeaFair splits for the trip where nobody ate the same thing.
The problem
"I'll just Venmo you later" is the biggest lie in modern friendship. You know who still hasn't paid you back. They know too. It's been four months.
Four months after the trip, there's still a note in someone's phone labeled "Cabo receipts" — the one friend who covered the Airbnb deposit hasn't been made whole, and nobody remembers who paid for the Tuesday dinner. Splitwise will solve this, until it hits you with a daily expense limit and asks for $4 a month to keep going.
When you'll use it
The post-trip reckoning.
Six people, a beach house, a grocery run on Day 1 and another on Day 3, three dinners, two Ubers to the airport. Somebody needs to sort it before the group chat goes quiet.
The bachelorette nobody wants to do math on.
The maid of honor fronted the Airbnb, two friends covered dinners, one bought the decor. Enter it once, settle it once.
Roommate groceries, week 14.
One roommate always grabs the paper towels and toilet paper. The other one pays for the Costco run. Log it as you go, net it at the end of the month.
The dinner party credit.
Someone brought a $45 bottle of wine to a potluck where everyone else spent $20 on ingredients. Add it to the tab, split the difference, move on.
What you get
Minimum transfers to settle up.
Six people, fourteen expenses, two or three payments. The math collapses the web into the shortest path.
One link, no app, no accounts.
Everyone sees the same ledger in a browser. No download, no signup, no paywall mid-trip.
Natural-language expense entry.
Type "Sarah paid $120 for the Airbnb, split 4 ways." Kit parses it into a clean line item.
A settled tab, not a pending one.
Clear debts, marked paid, archived. The spreadsheet in someone's Notes app goes away.
How Kit shows up
Parses expenses from plain text.
"Mike covered dinner, around 180 for four of us, Sam had the wagyu so he owes more." Kit turns that into totals, shares, and who owes whom. If something doesn't parse, Kit says so.
Calculates minimum transfers.
Kit nets the web of debts into the fewest payments that settle it. "Three transfers close this out."
Flags contested amounts neutrally.
When two people log different totals for the same dinner, Kit surfaces the mismatch without picking a side. "Sort it out and update."
This one's an idea.
