Clapply takes the complexity out of event planning by pairing gift recommendations with event management. Built on React Native, it leans on Firebase's real-time database so several people can plan the same event simultaneously, with Firebase also covering authentication and cloud storage for event photos and documents.
The gift recommendation engine analyses preferences, past gift-giving patterns, and social connections to suggest ideas that fit. Material UI keeps the interface consistent across screen sizes, and an offline layer lets users read and edit event details without connectivity.
Social platform integration handles contact sync and gift coordination between friend groups. Payments support multiple currencies and methods, with tracking for group purchases and expense splitting, and push notifications keep everyone current on changes, RSVPs, and gift coordination.
