Decide what to order for takeout in one minute
Takeout debates run longer than the delivery. One roommate wants pizza for the third night running, one is sick of it, and one keeps saying “whatever.” Drop the options into a Rankd, text the link, and everyone ranks from the couch. Order from the top of the list, and keep the full order handy for the next night nobody wants to cook.
- Pizza
- Pad thai
- Chinese takeout
- Burgers and fries
- Burritos
- Chicken wings
- Poke bowls
Free. Edit the options, then send one link to your group.
Why ranking beats a regular poll here
- The “whatever” person still ranks, so their quiet preference counts.
- One order from the top spot beats three separate deliveries.
- A cuisine everyone can live with beats the favorite one person always pushes.
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
- Use cuisines when you’re undecided, or name actual restaurants from your delivery app.
- Leave out places that are closed or too far to deliver.
- Have everyone rank before anyone opens the app, so the deals don’t sway the vote.
Questions
Can we pick dishes too, not just the restaurant?
Yes. Once you know the restaurant, start a second rank with dishes from its menu to decide what to share.
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.
