How it works
From group chat to guest list in three steps.
No spreadsheets. No back-and-forth. No “wait, who's bringing the dessert?” Just an invite that goes out and friends who actually show up.
01Prompt
Tell Kai
Type one sentence about what you want to throw. Kai pulls together a draft invite, guest list, and timeline in seconds.
02Refine
Tweak together
Adjust the vibe, the menu, the playlist, the dress code. Kai handles the messy parts — wording, follow-ups, who hasn't opened the invite.
03Host
Show up
Guests RSVP, ask questions, sign up for sides. You arrive on the day with a working plan and a full house.
Captivating invite pages
No long forms. No Canva. Just a beautiful invite.
Describe your event in a sentence. Kai picks the vibe, drops a cover image, drafts the message, and produces a shareable page that doesn't look like a Google Form.
- Photo, theme, and color picked for you
- Editable everything
- Shareable as a link, text message, PartyPass™ tap or QR
A dedicated AI event concierge
Meet Kai. He talks to your guests so you don't have to.
When guests have questions — what to bring, where to park, kid-friendly? — Kai answers in your voice. You see the conversation, you stay in control, and you skip the 47 reply-all messages.
- Answers in your voice and style
- You approve any reply you want
- Wrangles RSVPs from the non-committal
Relationship insights
Your social life, on autopilot.
Luau quietly notices who you've seen lately and who's slipping. Then it suggests the small get-togethers that keep your community close — birthdays, monthly dinners, easy weeknight things.
- See your circle at a glance
- Get nudges before friendships fade
- Receive ready-to-go event ideas
For organizers
Run a recurring thing? Stop running it twice.
Series events, member rosters, repeat invites, and attendance history — built for the people keeping their communities alive. Run clubs, book clubs, PTOs/PTAs, Greek orgs, local meetups.
Loved by hosts
The people throwing Luau parties love throwing them again.
4.9 · 1,200+ hosts
“I host 40+ dinners a year. Luau is the first tool that actually saves me time instead of becoming another inbox to check.”
“Kai turned my son's Little League schedule into 12 events and sent game-day text reminders to family. Two minutes, season handled.”
“Our run club went from a flaky group chat to 30 people every Tuesday. The recurring invites + Kai's reminders made it stick.”
“Three kids, full-time job, somehow still throwing real birthday parties. Kai handles the parts I used to dread.”
“Book club attendance went from 4 to 14. We didn't grow — Kai just stopped letting people forget.”
“I can finally throw something on a Wednesday and not stress for a week beforehand. Game changer for our friend group.”
Who we are
Built by people who actually host.
A small team of event-hosts and engineers in Birmingham, AL — building the tool we wish we'd had for the last decade of dinners, run clubs, and birthday parties.
“Our networks open doors for us and our kids, our health depends on them — and yet we don't make time. Luau is the gap between what we know matters and what we actually do.”
