Tilly

Overview

Tilly is an AI concierge for experiences and travel. The site positions it as a personal social assistant that learns what you like across restaurants, experiences, and trips, then turns that into recommendations, organized plans, and action on your behalf.

The product combines two related workflows: everyday planning on the main Tilly site and travel planning on the Tilly Travel page. It can help users save and decode places, find events and recommendations, build itineraries, and manage some booking tasks such as reservations or live phone calls.

A separate visa checker is also available for determining travel access based on passport country, destination country, and visas currently held. The travel page additionally describes itinerary maps, editable plans, collaboration, and curated themes for trip ideas.

Access appears limited in places: the homepage says Tilly is invite-only, while the travel page notes that the full app is coming soon and some browser-based tools are available now.

Features

Taste-based recommendations

Tilly learns from places you save, rate, and browse so it can refine recommendations around your taste rather than a generic destination list.

Save and organize places

Users can paste notes or upload screenshots, and Tilly tries to identify places and organize them into a cleaner saved list.

Personalized local discovery

The homepage says Tilly tracks local events, classes, markets, and more, then filters them to match the user’s preferences.

Bookings and phone calls

Tilly can handle bookings and reservation logistics, including booking on Resy or making live phone calls on the user’s behalf.

Visual trip planning

The travel product supports itinerary planning with day-by-day organization and a map view for trips.

Shared itineraries

Tilly includes collaboration and sharing features so itineraries can be viewed, shared, or edited with friends and family.

Use cases

  • Turn messy inspiration into saved places

    Save a screenshot, a clipped post, or a rough note and let Tilly identify the place and organize it into a cleaner list you can revisit later.

  • Refine recommendations from feedback

    Rate a few places you like and use the resulting recommendations to surface restaurants, events, or experiences that better match your taste.

  • Build a day-by-day travel itinerary

    Plan a trip by entering your destination, trip length, and preferences, then review the itinerary on a map and adjust it as needed.

  • Coordinate group travel plans

    Share a trip with friends or family, or invite them to collaborate when multiple people need to contribute to the same plan.

    Check passport and visa eligibility before travel by selecting a passport country, destination country, and any visas currently held.
