Cast a Beacon with your group size, budget and vibe. Nearby venues that match send their best offer, and the winning one lands on your phone. No scrolling, no calling around.
- Free for diners
- Your name stays private
- One offer, not a flood
Live across Greater Colombo: Colombo 1–7, Galle Face and Battaramulla. Kandy, Galle and Negombo next.
Animated example: a group picks its size, budget per head and vibe, then casts a Beacon. Nearby venues send offers, the strongest one wins, and accepting it turns it into a QR pass to show at the door.
Every other app makes you do the work: search, scroll, compare, call, and hope there's a table. Kohedha flips it. Tell us what your group wants, and the venues do the work of winning you over.

A Beacon is a 2-hour signal that you're out. It turns a night of searching into one decision: yes or pass.
Cast your Beacon
How many of you, your budget per head, your vibe and how far you'll go. Takes ten seconds.
Matching venues see it
Only nearby venues that fit your vibe get your Beacon. A rooftop crowd never hears from a karaoke bar.
They compete
Each venue sends its best offer: a free round, a discount, a held table. The strongest one reaches you.
