Gift Planner
Thoughtful gifts, without the guesswork.
Gift Planner is an AI-powered gifting platform that helps people find thoughtful gift ideas with less guesswork. Users create profiles for friends, family, clients, or teams and receive recommendations shaped by occasion, budget, interests, and personality. Free users can try the core experience, while paid plans unlock planner tools, reminders, more retailer options, and expanded gifting workflows.

Gift Planner suggests the concept
Google Images helps you visualize it

What I shipped in the MVP: thoughtfulgivingplanner.ca
A guided “create a recipient profile” flow (interests, traits, budget, occasion)
AI-generated recommendation batches (9 ideas: Safe / Thoughtful / Unexpected + alternates)
Saved people + upcoming occasions (callendar + planner + reminders)
Credits + Stripe billing (trial, monthly/yearly, top-ups)
A public-facing API-first architecture so the web app (and future mobile app) consume the same endpoints
API docs + OpenAPI schema + downloadable docs
Now I’m moving into testing with real users and iterating on UX, pricing, and the developer API.
