Nowadays vs Roam Around

Nowadays is an event management platform built for corporate teams that need to plan offsites, retreats, and company gatherings without hiring a full-time planner. It covers venue sourcing, registration, budgeting, vendor coordination, and day-of logistics in one place.

The platform uses AI to contact venues by email and phone, collect availability, negotiate rates, and surface the best options. Nowadays is IATA-certified and books events at volume, which unlocks preferred hotel rates and concessions that teams typically cannot get on their own.

It fits startups planning their first retreat, people teams running quarterly offsites, executive assistants sourcing venues, and enterprise teams managing events across multiple cities. Clients include Google, Airbnb, Stripe, Notion, and HubSpot.

Roam Around builds custom travel itineraries from your destination, dates, and personal constraints. You pick a city and trip length, add filters like family-friendly or pet-friendly requirements, and Roam Around returns a day-by-day plan without hours of blog hopping.

Most travel planners dump generic sightseeing lists. Roam Around sells token-based plans where one travel token equals one generated itinerary, and the site highlights filters for digital nomads, couples, backpackers, and families traveling with kids or dogs. The Google Play listing positions it as a mobile-first planner trusted by more than 143,150 users.

Pricing runs on travel tokens with a limited-time 50% discount on bundles: 30 tokens for $5 (normally $10), 80 tokens for $10 (normally $20), and 150 tokens for $15 (normally $30). You can try Roam Around free before buying tokens, and each purchase unlocks hyper-customized plans for destinations like London, Bali, Jaipur, Rome, and multi-city Europe trips.
