Why a live page beats another group text
A message in a chat is read once and buried. By the time anyone asks what time, or which gate, or whether they can bring someone, the answer is three scrolls deep and half the group never saw it. An online invitation puts every detail on one page that stays put, so the reply is not a guess and the questions answer themselves.
Making that page costs nothing to start. You write the details, choose a look, and turn on replies. What comes back is a record, not a fragment of conversation: each yes attached to a name, so the count you read is real.
