About MiddleFind

MiddleFind started as a tool to settle one of the oldest group-chat arguments: where should we actually meet? Splitting the difference on a map sounds fair, but everyone who's done it knows the geographic midpoint usually leaves at least one person stuck with a much longer drive.

So we built a planner that uses real travel time — driving, cycling, or walking — across the open OpenStreetMap routing network. The algorithm picks the spot that minimizes the worst trip, not the average. Then we pull nearby restaurants, cafés, parks, and bars so the group has somewhere real to land.

It works for two friends planning brunch, a remote team doing a quarterly meetup, a family choosing a Thanksgiving destination, or kids and parents picking a soccer field. No sign-up required to plan a trip; sign in only if you want to save and revisit your meetups.

MiddleFind is built on open data and free to use. Map tiles and venue data come from OpenStreetMap contributors, and routing comes from the open OSRM project.
