A public plan is visible to everyone, including search engines. Google can index it, other DateSpots users can find it via search and browse, and it becomes eligible for The 12 picks.

Your name (handle), the plan title, the stops, and the public description are visible. We never expose the partner pairing, scheduling history, or who has saved it. If you want to test a plan privately first, save it as Friends — only your inner circle sees it until you bump it to Public.
