You've planned it. Now package it. Publisher turns your itineraries and events into a small, honest business — with a storefront, a dashboard, and the content tools to run it properly.
Bundle the trip you actually took into a guide readers can clone into their own Wanderlust — cities, days, notes, and all. Shipped on our distribution, in front of our audience.
Host a small-group trip, a city walk, or a weekend dinner series. We handle the storefront, payments, and the messy parts so you can focus on the guests.
Views, saves, clones, and revenue — by guide, by city, by month. Publisher analytics gives you the story behind the numbers, not just a dashboard for show.
Versioning, scheduled drops, and tools for collaborators. Everything in Pro still applies — this just adds the publishing half of the job.
Pulled from the App Store, Product Hunt, and the occasional unsolicited email to the team.
Yes. No trial clock, no credit card, no starter gotchas. The free plan is designed for travelers who take a couple of trips a year. When your planning outgrows it, Pro is there.
Unlimited AI Travel Assistant, the full itinerary builder, premium city playbooks with hidden gems, top Airbnbs across thousands of cities, community access, cross-device sync, and early access to new features.
Yes — the free plan gives you 2 AI assistant previews and 1 itinerary draft so you can see the planning tools in action before upgrading.
No. Cancel anytime from your account settings — you keep access until the end of your billing period. No questions asked.
Pro is for travelers who want premium planning tools. Publisher layers on creator tooling — publish guides, sell events and trips, and see your audience in a dashboard.
Click "Start with Pro" on any plan card, sign in, and complete checkout. Premium features unlock immediately.
Ninety seconds to your first draft. A few minutes to decide if Pro is worth it. On annual, that's less than $0.17/day.
