Transparent by design

How Waysemble calculates a group compromise

Waysemble applies the same deterministic rules to every option. Artificial intelligence does not decide feasibility, prices, scores, or rankings.

Step 1

Check what is possible

Options that break a hard constraint, such as required availability or an absolute limit, are removed before scoring.

Step 2

Score each traveler

Every feasible option is evaluated separately for each person. A strong group average cannot hide who is affected.

Step 3

Reward fair compromises

The final score values the whole group while giving meaningful weight to the least-satisfied traveler.

What makes up a traveler score

Each traveler receives a score from 0 to 100. The applicable parts below are combined using the weights used by the application. Accommodation contributes to the score only when it is included in the calculation. At launch, it is disabled and the displayed amount covers transport only, excluding accommodation.

  • Preferences

    How well the destination matches the traveler’s ranked interests, with earlier choices counting more.

    35%
  • Budget

    How the traveler’s own estimated cost compares with their stated maximum budget.

    25%
  • Travel

    Journey duration and tolerance for overnight travel from that traveler’s origin.

    25%
  • Accommodation

    When accommodation is included in the calculation, how its proposed comfort compares with the traveler’s requested level. This component is excluded when accommodation is disabled.

    15%

The fairness rule

The group score combines 70% of the average traveler score with 30% of the lowest traveler score. This keeps a popular option from ranking first when it works badly for one person.

What the score cannot decide

A score summarizes the information available when the calculation runs. It cannot guarantee changing prices or availability, interpret every personal circumstance, or replace the group’s judgment. The organizer always makes the final selection.
