When the app is configured with an AI backend (e.g. Gemini), these six capabilities are available. They’re designed to remove friction—filling forms, proposing times, matching rides, and surfacing options—without replacing your decisions.
1. Quick create (events)
In the event creation flow, use the Quick create with AI block. Type something like Tennis Saturday 9am with the weekend crew or Dinner Thursday 7pm at the usual place. The AI extracts title, date, time, and optionally a suggested circle. The form fills; you review, adjust if needed, and send. No more copying from chat into a calendar.
2. Poll slot suggestions
When you run a “Find a time” (availability) poll, you can describe when you’re free in plain language—e.g. next week weekday evenings or any afternoon this weekend. Tap Suggest and the AI proposes concrete time slots. Participants then vote Available / Maybe / Unavailable. One place to agree on a time.
3. Find matching rides
On the carpool (Rides) screen, use the search flow: enter your destination and when you want to leave. The AI (and backend) rank existing rides by route overlap and timing. You see which rides actually go your way instead of scrolling a flat list.
4. Activity → places
Discovery and event creation often use activity types (coffee, tennis, etc.). For less common ones—bouldering, escape room, karaoke—the system maps the activity to Google Places types so you get real venues and consistent filters. No dead “no results” for valid intents.
5. Invite personalization
When composing an event invite, a sparkle (AI) button generates a short, friendly message. You can edit or send as-is. The idea is “human tone by default” so invites don’t feel like system notifications.
6. Discovery suggestions
On the discovery experience, activities and places can be suggested based on time of day and your location when AI is enabled. So “what’s good right now” is informed by context, not only static categories.
Privacy and control
AI runs in the backend; your text is used only to produce the suggestion (e.g. event fields, slots, or ride list). You always confirm or edit before anything is created or sent. No automatic posting or sharing.
