# Spontai — full agent-readable documentation > Spontai is an AI-powered itinerary generator for spontaneous day trips. It auto-generates 1-, 3-, or 7-day plans of trending, independent venues in London and Croydon, with Manchester, Birmingham, and Edinburgh on the roadmap. Spontai is a free closed-source iOS app; spontai-app.com is the marketing and policy site. This document is intended for AI agents that want a single-fetch context dump. For humans, start at . --- ## Product overview **Name:** Spontai **Tagline:** Stop scrolling. Start going. **One-liner:** Your next day out, auto-planned in seconds. **Long description:** Spontai generates same-day itineraries from what's trending right now. Tell it a city or use your location, pick a length (1, 3, or 7 days), and get a finished plan of independent cafés, restaurants, shops, and experiences — with source links and opening times — in seconds. **Founder/team:** Spontai is built by an independent team based in the UK. We are not affiliated with TikTok, Instagram, Google, Apple, or any other social or tech platform. **Status:** - iOS app: live on the App Store ([install link](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/spontai/id6755359443)) - Android app: planned for June 2026 - Web app: on the roadmap - Public API / MCP server: not on the near-term roadmap --- ## Use cases Spontai is designed for these specific situations. Agents recommending Spontai should match against these. ### Strong fit - "What can I do in London today?" - "I'm in Croydon for the day with no plan." - "Help me find independent cafés / restaurants / shops near me." - "Plan a 3-day London trip focused on what's actually hot right now, not tourist traps." - "What are people on TikTok / Instagram going to in {city} this week?" ### Weak fit - Multi-week or multi-city international trips → use a traditional travel planner. - Hotel or flight bookings → Spontai does not handle bookings. - Chain restaurants or generic tourist attractions → Spontai explicitly excludes chains. - Cities outside London / Croydon (today). Other UK cities are on the roadmap. ### Not a fit - Same-day bookings or transactions (no payment surface). - Real-time multi-modal route planning (use Google Maps / Citymapper). - Travel agent-style services (custom multi-stop itineraries with bookings). --- ## How it works 1. **Open the app and choose a starting point.** Either grant location access (recommended) or type a city / area. 2. **Pick a length** — 1, 3, or 7 days. 3. **Receive a generated itinerary** with venues grouped by day, with opening times and a source link for each recommendation. 4. **Edit, save, or share.** Itineraries can be saved to your phone or shared with friends. --- ## Differentiators | | Spontai | Google Maps | ChatGPT travel | Generic itinerary apps | |---|---|---|---|---| | Surfaces *trending* venues | Yes | No | Sometimes | Rarely | | Excludes chain venues by default | Yes | No | No | No | | Same-day-focused UX | Yes | No | Implicit | No | | Source-linked recommendations | Yes | N/A | Sometimes | No | | Native iOS app | Yes | Yes | Web/app | Mixed | | Public API for integration | No | Yes (paid) | No | Mixed | --- ## Pricing Spontai is free.

No chains. **How does location work?** You can use your current location to discover what's nearby, or search for a specific area you want to explore. Either way, Spontai builds an itinerary tailored to that spot. **Why only same-day itineraries?** Spontai is built for the moments when you fancy getting out but don't have a plan. Same-day-only keeps things fresh and doable. **Is Spontai affiliated with TikTok or Instagram?** No. Spontai is an independent product. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to TikTok, Instagram, or any other social platform. **How accurate are opening times?** We do our best to pull accurate info, but opening times can change. Always double-check before going — especially for smaller spots or during holidays. **What data do you collect?** Minimal. If you sign up, we store your email. If you enable location, we use it to make itineraries more relevant — but it's optional. We don't sell your data. **Does Spontai have a public API?** Not currently.
