CampingBuddy runs everything after you pick the campsite: AI packing lists and itineraries, shared plans your whole crew can edit, alerts when sold-out campsites open, expense splitting, meal plans, and a used-gear marketplace.
Hey PH! 👋
CampingBuddy exists because every group camping trip I've been on started the same way: 200 group-chat messages, three people bringing chips, nobody bringing water, and someone asking "wait, who has the stove?" from the trailhead.
The Dyrt and Hipcamp are great at helping you find a campsite. Nothing owned everything after that.
So I built it:
🏕️ Shared trip plans: one itinerary the whole crew sees and edits in real time
🎒 AI packing lists: tailored to your trip, group size, and the forecast
🔔 Campsite alerts: get pinged when a booked-out site opens up
🍳 AI meal plans + safety briefings: feeding six people in the woods, solved
💸 Expense splitting: no awkward math on the drive home
♻️ Gear Swap: a marketplace for used gear between campers
Free Explorer tier does a lot; Trailblazer (the full AI toolkit) has a 7-day trial, no card needed.
I'd love brutal feedback, especially from people who've been the Trip Organizer Friend. What would make your next trip easier?
Would love a "leave no trace" checklist tailored to the specific park you're headed to, with local fire rules and bear canister reminders. That feels like a natural fit with the meal plans and packing lists, and it's the kind of thing my group always forgets until we're already at the trailhead.
@brahimbedk4vop Great idea, and you're right that it fits with the packing lists. Park-specific rules (fire bans, bear canister requirements, LNT) would kill exactly the "we found out at the trailhead" moment. Not in there yet, but I'm writing it down. It's the kind of thing I'd use myself.
Super useful concept, the alerts for sold-out campsites alone would save me a lot of refreshing. One thing I'd love to see is offline access to the itinerary and packing list, since cell service is usually nonexistent at most of the spots I camp.
@layda4hi3 Offline's high on my list too, service at the good spots is basically zero. It's built into the mobile app that's on the way, so the itinerary and packing list come with you off-grid. Thanks for calling it out.
Love how you stitched together the campsite alerts with the shared itinerary editor. Most apps force you to bounce between tabs for that, and CampingBuddy keeps it in one flow.
@potuktunah15112 Thank you, that "one flow" was the whole reason I built it. Bouncing between a booking site, a spreadsheet, and the group chat was what drove me nuts. Glad it landed for you.
Tried it with my usual crew last weekend and the shared itinerary actually saved us from the usual text-message chaos. The sold-out campsite alerts went off right when a spot opened near our hike.
@sinemtecim This made my day. That's the exact scenario I built it for, and I'm really glad the alert came through when a spot opened. Hope the rest of the trip was a good one.
