Settle the plan for guys’ night
Guys’ night tends to default to the same bar because nobody bothers to suggest anything else, and when someone does, the replies are a thumbs-up and silence. Put a few real ideas in a Rankd and send it to the crew. Everyone ranks privately, so you find out whether people actually want poker, go-karts or just wings and the game.
- Poker at someone’s place
- Steakhouse dinner
- Watch the game at a sports bar
- Axe throwing
- Golf simulator
- Go-karts
- Wings and video games
Free. Edit the options, then send one link to your group.
Why ranking beats a regular poll here
- A ranking gets real answers from friends who only reply with a thumbs-up.
- Pricier options like a steakhouse can be ranked low without anyone saying money is tight.
- The order hands you a rotation for the next few months.
How it works
- Add the question and 3 to 30 options
- Send one private link to the group
- Everyone ranks privately, in about a minute
- You reveal the winner
Tips
- Add a rough cost per person to each idea.
- Put the date in the question so people rank with their schedule in mind.
- Reveal it in the chat and book right away.
Questions
Can we rank where to watch the game too?
Yes. Make a separate rank with the bars or houses, and send both links at once.
Can people see how I ranked?
No. Each person’s order stays private. Everyone sees the group’s final order and where they personally landed, never anyone else’s individual ranking.
Is it free? Does everyone need the app?
Rankd is free and runs in the browser, so there is nothing to download. Friends open the link from any group chat (iMessage, WhatsApp, Slack, email) and rank in about a minute.
