Invite-only events

Nobody arrives
by accident.

Vouch is the private events app for the twelve-seat dinner, the listening room, the Sunday film night, the one-evening pop-up, the workshop with eight chairs. Everyone in the room got there through somebody — and Vouch keeps that chain visible instead of pretending the guest list assembled itself.

How a night comes together

Three steps, and none of them are a group chat.

Hosting a small thing well is mostly bookkeeping: who is actually coming, who is bringing someone, who said maybe in March and never followed up. Vouch does that part.

01

Spend an invite

You hold a finite number of invite seeds. Each one mints a single-use code — V-4KQ2-L9TX — that expires in seven days if nobody uses it. Scarcity is the point: you are giving away a chair, not a follow.

02

Set the room

Time, place, how many can fit, and the details that decide whether people come: the menu, the lineup, what to bring, the reference link. Add a cover photo and Vouch removes its EXIF and GPS data on your iPhone before it is ever uploaded.

03

Watch it fill

Guests answer going, maybe or no, flag a plus-one and leave a note. Threaded comments keep logistics on the event instead of in six threads. Add it to your calendar in a tap, and a Live Activity counts the last hours down on your Lock Screen.

The trust chain

A guest list is a social object, so treat it like one.

Most event apps flatten everyone into an undifferentiated attendee row. Vouch stores the edge instead of just the node: who let this person in, and who let that person in. Open any profile and you can walk the chain back to the host.

It changes behaviour in a way a rating system never does. When your name sits one link above someone else’s, you invite carefully.

Small stays small Invite seeds run out. There is no public search, no discovery feed, nothing engineered to make a fourteen-person room go wide.
The RSVP list belongs to the host Guests see a count. The host sees names, going / maybe / no, plus-ones and every note — because the host is the one buying the food.
No stranger ever appears Nobody can wander into an event. Every attendee redeemed a code that somebody deliberately spent on them, and that record does not disappear.

Private by construction

The shortest part of Vouch is the data it wants.

A private guest list stops being private the moment the app around it starts collecting. So Vouch collects almost nothing, and the things it genuinely cannot function without are listed in full in the privacy policy.

Read the Vouch Privacy Policy →

  • No advertising SDK and no third-party analytics SDK. Vouch is not measured by anyone but us, and not monetised by attention.
  • Your contacts are never requested, uploaded or scanned. Invites travel as codes you hand out yourself.
  • No location tracking. You type where the event is. The app does not follow you there or anywhere else.
  • Calendar access is add-only. Vouch can write an event into your calendar and is technically incapable of reading a single other entry.
  • Cover photos are stripped before upload. EXIF, GPS, IPTC and TIFF metadata are removed on your iPhone, then stripped again on the server as a second line of defence.
  • Sign in with Apple, and nothing else. No password, no phone number. A sample circle lets you look around the app before you sign in at all.
  • Cloudflare holds the data. Events, RSVPs and comments live in a D1 database; photos live in a private R2 bucket that is only readable through the app’s own authenticated service.

Pricing

Vouch is free to use. Pro exists for people who host a lot.

Going to things is free forever — attending, RSVPing and commenting are never limited or counted. The only thing the free plan caps is how many events you can be hosting at the same time.
