Dinner with friends, locked into the right date on the first try
"We should do dinner!" And then ten days of group chat where everyone throws out their own evening, two people disagree about what was actually settled, and the dinner never happens because there was never a clear date. The bigger the group, the more unlikely it becomes that a simple dinner gets coordinated by text alone.
Qui peut quand? gives that kind of plan real structure: propose two, three, or four possible evenings on a small calendar, share one link with the group, and everyone answers Yes, Maybe, or No for each date. The grid shows at a glance who's free when, and the date that works for the most people rises on its own, no manual counting required.

How to lock in a dinner date in four steps
Create your poll with the "Dinner with friends" occasion: the title suggests itself already ("Sophie's dinner"), add the location if you already know it.
Propose your possible evenings on the calendar, with a time if the dinner has a fixed start ("6 p.m." rather than "sometime in the evening").
Share the link in the group chat. Everyone answers with a first name; anyone unsure can answer "Maybe" instead of not answering at all.
Watch the grid fill in, then close the poll on the evening that works for the most people. Anyone who left an email gets the "It's decided!" notice.
Free for up to 8 proposed dates per poll. After that, $5.99 CAD once for that poll, no subscription.
Transparency settles half the group friction
A lot of the friction around planning dinner with friends comes down to ambiguity: who actually confirmed, who just said "maybe", who never answered at all. On the grid, all of that is visible: first names, answers, and an optional comment from everyone, out in the open, exactly as the form states before anyone submits.
And if the dinner is a real potluck where everyone brings a dish, the sister app quiapportequoi.ca handles that part with the same one-link idea: once the dinner date is settled here, all that's left is building the list over there.
Frequently asked questions
- Does everyone need to respond before I know the date?
- No. You can close the poll as soon as you have enough answers to decide, even if a few people haven't responded; the date with the best score rises regardless of how many answers came in.
- Can someone change their mind after answering?
- Yes, any time before the poll closes: they reopen the grid from the link they got by email, or from the same browser, and edit their answer. The grid updates instantly for everyone.
- Can I add a date after sharing the link?
- Yes, as long as the free plan's cap of 8 dates isn't reached. The new date shows up on the grid right away, and people who already answered can come back to fill it in.
- Can my friends see my email, or can I see theirs?
- Never. Emails don't leave the app: they're only used to send the organizer link and the notice once a date is chosen, never displayed on the grid.
