ThrSqr - Will you be there or be square?

An RSVP tracker for weekly events and friendly people

So you and your group meet once a week, eg. five-a-side football, band or choir rehearsal, book club etc. But only if enough people attend that is. As the event approaches, your WhatsApp group is flooded with "I'm going", "Not this week.", and - crucially - "So, are we enough, yet?!" messages. Every week the same ruckus.

Not any longer, thanks to ThrSqr!

Click here to see it in action and to actually use it like my football team and I have been doing for weeks now.

Simple workflow

  1. Set up your event,
  2. share the link,
  3. be there or be square,
  4. read responses, or
  5. get notified.
