Turn Any Instagram Reel or TikTok into a Trip Itinerary

Your camera roll knows where you want to travel before you do. Somewhere between the ramen reel you saved at midnight and the Tokyo rooftop a stranger posted last week, you've already planned half a trip — you just can't see it yet. It's scattered across Instagram saves, TikTok favorites, and YouTube watch-laters, and none of those apps will ever turn it into a plan.

That's the gap: the internet is brilliant at making you want to go somewhere and useless at helping you actually go. The usual workaround — pausing videos to type place names into a notes app — is tedious enough that most saved places die in the saves folder.

Plany closes that gap with a share button.

Share the Reel. That's the Whole Workflow.

Next time a travel reel stops your scroll:

1. Tap Share on the reel, TikTok, or YouTube video — the same share sheet you'd use to send it to a friend
2. Pick Plany from the share options
3. Keep scrolling — Plany's AI takes it from there

Behind the scenes, the AI watches the video, reads the captions and on-screen text, and extracts every place it mentions — the restaurant names flashed for two seconds, the viewpoint in the caption, the café tagged in a corner. Each one is matched to a real venue with its location, photos, and details. A "10 unique places in Tokyo" reel becomes ten actual places in your Ideas inbox, not a video you'll never find again.

It works the same way with a pasted link, and alongside Google Maps lists if that's where your saves live.

Your Ideas, Auto-Organized into Collections

Extracted places don't pile into one heap. Plany groups them into collections — share three Tokyo reels over a month and you'll find a Tokyo collection waiting, every place labeled by type: restaurants, attractions, cafés, viewpoints. Each place keeps its source, so you always know which creator sent you there.

From Collection to Calendar in One Tap

Here's where saved places stop being a graveyard. Inside any collection sits a Build a trip from this collection button. Tap it, and Plany's AI weaves those places into a day-by-day itinerary — grouping spots that are near each other, sequencing days sensibly, adding times and travel gaps. Ten scattered saves become a schedulable plan in under a minute.

Prefer to stay hands-on? Skip the button and drag ideas onto your trip calendar yourself — each place drops in as a full event with its photo, location, and details already attached.

Why This Beats the Notes-App Method

Nothing gets lost in transcription. The AI catches places you'd miss — the spot named only in a caption, the second restaurant in a montage.

Places arrive as places, not text. A note that says "that blue café in Harajuku" helps nobody. An extracted idea carries the real venue, pinned on a map, with photos.

Inspiration and planning finally connect. The scroll-and-save habit you already have becomes the first step of planning instead of a dead end.

Try It on Your Next Scroll

1. Sign up free at app.plany.ae and install the app
2. Find any travel reel or TikTok — you probably have twenty saved already

The distance between "saw it on TikTok" and "it's on my calendar" is now one share button.
