Is togather a good Splitspot alternative?

Yes, especially for a group meeting inside a city. Both time real journeys with a mode per person. togather balances the whole group's travel instead of only the longest trip, and the shared link lets anyone missing add themselves.

What is wrong with minimising the longest journey?

Nothing, it protects the person furthest away. But on its own it can send everyone else on longer trips to shave a minute off one person's. togather weighs that gap against the group's average, so it avoids the long outlier without making the whole group pay for it.

When is Splitspot the better pick?

For groups of nine or ten, for trips between towns where you also want hotels or activities at the halfway point, or when you strictly want the longest journey as short as possible whatever it costs the others.

Do both work with public transport?

Yes. Both let each person pick their own mode, including public transport, cycling and walking, and both use real routes rather than straight-line distance.

How togather compares to Splitspot

Splitspot and togather both time real journeys with a travel mode per person. The difference is the rule: Splitspot minimises the longest single journey, while togather scores the average trip plus the gap between the longest and shortest, so trips stay short for the whole group and nobody is stuck with a much longer one. Splitspot takes up to 10 people; togather up to 8.

Same inputs, a different definition of fair

Splitspot and togather look alike from the outside. You add two or more starting points, set how each person travels, and get places to meet based on real routes rather than straight-line distance. The difference is the rule that decides which place wins.

Splitspot: make the longest trip as short as possible

Splitspot finds the spot that minimises the longest journey. That is a clear promise: the person furthest away gets the best deal available. It is a good rule when one journey really dominates, and Splitspot also handles up to ten people and covers stays and activities, which suits trips between towns.

The catch is what the rule ignores. If shaving two minutes off the longest trip means adding fifteen minutes for everyone else, minimising the longest journey takes that deal every time.

togather: short for the group, nobody stuck with a long one

togather scores every candidate on two things at once: the average journey for the group and the gap between the longest and the shortest trip, weighted equally. A spot that is quick for most people but slow for one loses, so nobody is stuck with a much longer trip. But a spot that makes everyone travel further just to trim one journey slightly loses too.

It is built for a group meeting inside a city, up to eight people arriving by metro, bike, on foot or by car. Send the result to the group chat and anyone not on the plan yet can add where they’re starting from; the spot re-centres to include them.
