Quantities per dish
Need three salads and two bags of ice? Set a quantity on each item and the sheet tracks how many are still open.
Guests sign up in seconds
No app, no account — grandma can claim her famous casserole from the link in the family group chat.

If someone swaps dishes or cancels, the sheet updates in real time for everyone with the link.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I stop people from bringing the same dish?
- Your sheet lists each dish or category with a quantity. Once someone claims “dessert” and it’s full, the slot closes — so the group naturally spreads across what’s still needed.
- Do guests need the app or an account?
- No. Guests open your link in any browser and claim an item with just their name — nothing to install or register.
- Can people say what specific dish they’re bringing?
- Yes — signups appear on the sheet with the person’s name, so everyone can see who’s covering what.
- Is it free?
- Yes. Creating a potluck signup sheet is free to get started, and participants never pay.
