The boil reality
A good boil starts with a number: how many pounds of crawfish, how many ears of corn, how many cousins are actually coming. Texting everyone one by one and tallying the maybes in your head never lands within twenty.
For crawfish boils & cookouts
RSVP tracking for the boil where everybody brings a cousin.
Backyard boils, church cookouts, Friday fish fries. When the pot's going you need a real headcount, not a maybe pile. One link that works in any group text, no apps, and a clean list of who's coming and what they're bringing.

One link, no apps
Doors gives the boil one short URL (doors.events/e/crawfish-boil) that you drop straight into the group text or the family thread. Tap, type a name and an email, say how many you're bringing. No sign-up, no app store, no account to make. The page they land on is themed for a boil, a photographed header picked from your event type, or your own photo if you have one you would rather use. Not a blank form.
03
Ask who's bringing what
Every boil runs on potluck math. Ask the questions that decide your shopping list and the answers land in your dashboard, ready to export.

Reminders so the headcount is real
Doors sends automatic reminders as the event approaches (about three days before, and again shortly before it starts) to everyone who said yes. A guest who is reminded twice either turns up or tells you they cannot, which is what makes the number worth planning around. For the mechanics, see our guide on how to track RSVPs online.
What guests see
Tap. Type. Done.
The whole RSVP flow from the guest's phone, start to finish. No app to install, no account to make.
