midway@ finds the perfect halfway spot for you and your friends It calculates fair travel times for any commute type – car, bike, public transit or walk No more group chat chaos. Meet in the middle, instantly.
My friends and I live all over the city. We could never agree on a fair place to meet.
A spot that looks to be in the middle on a map is rarely fair. A 20-minute drive is completely different from a 20-minute bus or train journey. Simple map tools just don't understand that.
That's why I built midway@
Our app's main goal is to find spots that have an equal travel time for everyone.
It’s not about distance, it’s about the actual time it takes to get there.
The best part? It works perfectly for public transport. It understands train, bus, and subway routes to find a location that is genuinely easy for everyone to reach.
Here’s how we make it fair:
Equal Travel Time, Not Just Distance: You and your friends choose how you're traveling—car, on foot, or by public transport. Our app calculates the real travel time for everyone and finds the most balanced spot.
Plan in Seconds: Just pick a vibe like "coffee" or "dinner," add your friends, and let the app do the hard work.
Get Great Venue Ideas: We suggest real cafes, restaurants, and parks in the perfect area, so you have great options to choose from.
Works for the Whole Squad: You can add as many friends as you want. We'll find a spot that’s fair for the entire group.
I wanted to end the "where should we meet?" debate for good.
Spend less time planning and more time actually hanging out. We'd love for you to try it and give us your feedback. I'll be here all day to answer your questions.
Love seeing a fun, thoughtful consumer product in the middle of all the B2B launches lately. Super useful idea—surprised this didn’t exist already. Curious how you’re thinking about virality or use cases beyond just one-off meetups? Congrats!
Very cool! I had a very similar idea recently, I'm glad it's been brought to life! I'm not an app builder, but I have a few use cases/ideas to share if you're open to it!
Yes, this is a problem I have often. I just tried it out and it worked but it was a little impractical. I often want to meet friends in different parts of the country for a weekend in the middle so I searched for "campsite". I'd appreciate being able to see the map before clicking in, the swipe wasn't great as an interface on the desktop. Very promising, bookmarking and upvoting!
Love this concept. Does it factor in the new metro routes here? Big congrats on the launch!
Considering public transport is so important, especially in big cities like Toronto where it's almost a necessity to use public transit due to how terrible traffic in the city is. I also like that it flags "crowd favorite" locations too!
That's incredibly smart 👏, luckily am heading out today with group of people will make sure to try this one 😊
Congratulations on the launch 🚀
This is a lovely idea. Is it available everywhere? Congrats on the launch though @ikapilm
