thatch
A conversational travel planner for personalized itineraries, group collaboration, recommendations, and organized booking records.
thatch has moved to Mindtrip; saved or purchased guides have been migrated.
About thatch
thatch is the former travel-guide platform now directing users to Mindtrip, where saved or purchased guides have been migrated. The current service supports conversational trip planning: travelers can ask for destination suggestions or a complete itinerary and refine results with preferences, priorities, and pet peeves. Recommendations can include destinations, hotels, flights, restaurants, and attractions, with supporting photos, reviews, and maps. Users can save items into a trip plan, adapt popular itineraries, and invite friends or family to collaborate through a shared group chat. Mindtrip also lets travelers upload or forward receipts and confirmations so bookings remain accessible in one place. Flight, hotel, restaurant, and experience workflows are presented together, while car rental and tours are marked as coming soon. This makes the migrated service useful for planning and organizing a trip, but adopters should account for the move from thatch to Mindtrip and for the paid pricing classification.
