Hoku

What Hoku is

Hoku is an AI-powered group travel planner that builds personalized itineraries from travelers’ preferences, group size, and destination. Trip members can add activities, destinations, and tasks to a shared plan and edit it in real time. Group messaging includes reactions, GIFs, and replies to comments, and expense tracking keeps trip costs with the itinerary. Through its Viator integration, users can browse and book tours, excursions, and activities; a Google Photos connection lets the group collect and share trip pictures. Hoku also supports reservation imports and offline access, but not calendar sync. It is available on the web, Android, and iOS, with a free plan. Precise location access requires device permission, and trip location sharing is off by default. Users can optionally connect Claude, ChatGPT, or Meta Muse and choose read access and, if desired, write access to trip information. Hoku says it uses technical and organizational safeguards, but cannot guarantee that data transmission or storage is completely secure.
