Around Me
Find places near your current location — for when you're already out and need somewhere within walking or a short drive.
Median finds the fairest place to meet — enter addresses and it ranks nearby spots by drive-time fairness, traffic-aware, for everyone in the group.
Whether you're alone, planning ahead, or coordinating with friends across town — pick the mode that fits the moment.
Find places near your current location — for when you're already out and need somewhere within walking or a short drive.
Drop a pin anywhere — a hotel, a venue, a future home — and Median surfaces what's nearby before you ever leave.
Enter 2 or more addresses. Median ranks meeting spots by drive-time fairness — the spot is in the middle for everyone, not the map.
Median uses Google Distance Matrix to rank spots by drive-time fairness for the whole group — with per-person minutes, miles, ratings, and open-now status on every card.
±0–3 min±3–7 min±7–14 min±14 min+Each rank is computed on the real, traffic-aware drive time between every participant and the candidate spot — not the as-the-crow-flies distance.
Median treats time as a first-class input. Pick how you want to think about the trip and the engine models traffic for that exact moment — including reverse-solving departure when you've committed to an arrival.
Live traffic, leaving this minute. Best when you're already moving.
Model the trip at a chosen departure time. Useful when you're planning ahead.
Back-calculates everyone's departure so traffic is modeled at the real time you'll be driving, not the time you tap "search."
Google Places powers the search; Median layers it with category filters, cuisine subtypes, "You" + addressed pins, and inline photos, ratings, hours and price level.
Saved addresses make the next trip a single tap. Favorites remember the places you actually love — not just the ones you searched once.
Every place card is share-ready, every output drops into a calendar, and the prototype lives inside a real phone frame with the small UX details that make mobile feel right.
The full app lives inside a polished device frame, so designs and demos feel native instead of like a web page in disguise.
Form inputs use 16px+ font-size, so the keyboard never auto-zooms the page on any mobile device.
Smart Midpoint toggle, last-used mode, and recent searches live in localStorage — open the app and it remembers where you were.
Every drive time on every card respects the chosen Now / Depart / Arrive moment. No "rough estimates."
