How it works

Three steps. One week.

Fill out the form

About ten minutes. Real questions about your taste, your companions, what you actively want to skip. The form's specificity is the point.

I hand-build your list

Within one week. Thirty to fifty places matched to your specifics, walking-grouped by neighborhood, with reasoning per pick.

Pay upfront, list follows

Free for the first ten pilot testers, in exchange for honest feedback. The list arrives within one week of your form submission. After the pilot, lists are $40 to $60 depending on trip length.

The form

Tell me about your trip.

About ten minutes. The more honest the answers, the better the match. The list arrives within one week. While the pilot is running, the first ten testers get their list free in exchange for honest feedback.

The basics

When and who.

Solo, partner, friends + how many, family + ages. Be specific.
Calibrating your taste

This section is the secret sauce. Be honest.

1 = doesn't matter at all · 5 = strong preference for off-the-algorithm spots
This reveals more about your taste than any tick-box ever will.
The non-negotiables

Practical stuff.

What lights you up

Tick everything that applies. The "weird" box at the bottom matters.

This is where the gems land. Examples: "I collect matchbooks," "I have to see one good film noir on a big screen," "want to meet a tarot reader."
Skip list

Where do I not need to send you?

e.g. SoHo, Williamsburg, East Village, DUMBO, Greenpoint. List any.
Delivery

First ten testers: free, in exchange for honest feedback. After that, $40 to $60 depending on trip length.
