    The problem

    Planning an outing sounds simple, but quickly becomes messy: too many options, group indecision and last-minute organising. As a result, one person ends up doing the work, while great local experiences remain undiscovered.

    • ·Too many options
    • ·Group indecision
    • ·One person does the work

    The solution

    Toudou does not give people another list of options, but one surprise match that fits. Users fill in a short Surprise Guide; Toudou matches, books and reveals the details at the right moment.

    How it works

    • Guide: wishes, budget, date, group and constraints
    • Matching: preferences + partner data + availability
    • Reveal: certainty upfront, surprise in the content
    • Support: booking, communication and follow-up

    Business model

    Toudou earns revenue through a service fee and partner commission. B2B brings higher order value and repeat potential; B2C builds the brand through dates, gifts and friend groups.

    • ·Service fee for matching, planning and support
    • ·Partner commission on completed bookings
    • ·B2C + B2B routes

    Technology

    Toudou is building an AI-assisted matching layer for local experiences. The system combines partner data, customer preferences, group constraints and availability into one suitable surprise match.

    Current stage: partly automated, partly human-in-the-loop. Next step: reducing manual intervention.

    Why now

    People are overloaded with options. AI and automation make personal curation scalable. Toudou combines local discovery, trusted curation and smarter matching.

    What we're looking for

    We are looking for funding, mentorship and strategic partners to improve matching automation, validate B2B demand and scale acquisition in the Netherlands.
