FAQS

Read on for answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about Foresyte.

What exactly does Lifestyle Planning mean?

How do you currently coordinate plans with a group of friends for a special occasion several weeks out? Herding the cats to ensure everyone stays in the conversation loop, knows when/where to be, and squares up on expenses?

Our assumption is that you probably use a combination of at least 2-3 of the following tools with lackluster results:

Facebook Events / E-vite
Google / Outlook Calendar
iMessage / Text
WhatsApp / Groupme
Venmo / Splitwise

That’s the problem Foresyte is solving. Bringing all these Lifestyle Planning essentials under one roof to make coordinating with your friends a breeze.

How is Foresyte different from other products?

The calendar products of the world are great at delivering a calendar, the group chat / photo pooling products of the world deliver on what’s advertised, and the cash exchange products of the world provide a simple way to square up with friends. What’s missing here?
