Stippl bundles the parts of a trip that other apps split up. The free plan includes unlimited trips, destinations and activities, unlimited co-planners, a budget tracker with currency conversion and expense settling, 24 predefined packing lists, a travel journal with up to 50 pictures per post, and a travel reel video for each trip. That makes it a good fit for long multi-stop trips where you plan, spend and record as you go. Stippl Pro adds unlimited AI trip and day-plan generation, AI route optimisation, forwarding of reservation emails, calendar sync, PDF export, expense export, custom budget categories and a 20% discount on printed photo books. Pro is a single monthly plan that you can cancel any time. The downside is that booking imports by email sit behind Pro, while Wanderlog includes imports for free. Stippl's Pro page showed only a EUR price from our location, so the USD price is pending.
