Wanderboard

The planning problem

Travel plans rarely begin as a neat itinerary. They emerge from map saves, recommendations, messages, opening hours, transport options, and half-finished notes. Wanderboard was created for the Microsoft Agents League as one place to turn those fragments into a plan that can keep changing.

Mori, the conversational part of the product, works inside the same trip board as the map and itinerary. It can suggest a place or propose a change, but the suggestion remains separate from the saved plan until the traveller reviews it.

Reviewing suggested changes

Place suggestions appear as structured cards that can be checked on the map before they are saved. Itinerary proposals show the intended change before updating the day. The traveller can also organise places directly on the board without using chat.

Guide Mode carries the existing itinerary into the trip itself. Its purpose is to answer questions in the context of what is already planned and what is nearby, without forcing the traveller to rebuild the day whenever circumstances change.

Current prototype

The hosted version supports trip creation, place organisation, itinerary reordering, and basic model-backed conversation in the planning and guide experiences. Microsoft Foundry and Azure AI Search provide the model and destination-knowledge layer.

The prototype still uses mocked place and location data in parts of the experience. It flags costs, travel time, opening hours, and other changing details for the traveller to verify.
