Hi HN!

I and my team have been hard at work for the past 4 years on our passion project, Trameter, and we're thrilled to share our second public release with you. Just 2 days ago, we launched Trameter on the App Store in the US, and we'd love to get your feedback.

What Trameter Does

Imagine planning a whole vacation in just a few seconds. That’s Trameter! It’s a mobile app that takes the stress out of travel planning. You simply tell it where you want to go, when you want to go, and how much you want to spend. In return, it gives you 9 personalized vacation options – a mix of flights and hotels – all ready to book in seconds.

The Problem We're Solving

Planning a trip can be a nightmare. Endless tabs, hours of comparing prices, and still feeling unsure about your choices. Most people end up with generic packages or spend way too much time and effort on DIY planning.

How Trameter Flips the Script

Trameter cuts through the noise and saves you from spending 15+ hours on 38+ websites. You get personalized options in seconds.

Here’s how it works:

1. Enter your Preferences: Where do you want to go? When? What’s your budget?

2. Relax and Let Trameter Do the Work: No more endless searches! Our smart algorithm finds the perfect flights and hotels for you.

3. Explore 9 Personalized Vacation Packages: In seconds, you'll get 9 curated options – 3 within your budget, 3 below, and 3 above.

4. Book in 1 Click Within the App: Finalize your travel plans with one click, without leaving the app or being redirected elsewhere.

Our Journey

We’re a small team of passionate travelers, frustrated with the planning process ourselves, who’ve poured our hearts into this app. We’re committed to making travel planning easy and enjoyable.

We’d love to hear your thoughts on:

- Potential use cases we might not have considered

- Suggestions for improving the app

- Ideas for marketing strategies

- Any potential pitfalls to look out for as we scale

Try the app out and let me know what you think! I'm here for all your feedback and questions.

Wow, that's solid. So I have excitement and questions running through my mind lol...

First, congrats on your launch. Now the question: how does this really work? I am a big planner and I know what it takes to go through planning a trip - I sometimes like it, but most times it just takes too long. What's the hidden sauce here and how does it compare against human planning?

[MoMiles → perewari]

Thanks a lot! I totally get where you're coming from. Planning can be fun, but it can also be a time-consuming chore. And for the "hidden sauce" behind Trameter, what we’ve is a smart algorithm that does all the heavy lifting for you instead.

Here's what happens when you input your preferences (destination, dates, budget) on Trameter, the algorithm scours the web, comparing prices and options. It also takes into account things like flight times, layovers, hotel ratings, and proximity to the city centre/attractions to make sure you get the very best options.

Compared to human planning, Trameter saves you hours and provides you with unbiased, real-time results only - in literally seconds. Have you tried it out yet? Let me know what you think!

This is just what my wife and I were looking for. We've been thinking about planning a vacation with our 6 month old and this seems to have the potential to make it super easy. Will give it a spin and circle back here!

Thanks so much! Looking forward to your review!

This sounds really interesting, so there are no redirections to third party apps during the booking process?

[MoMiles → byord09]

Totally. This is one of the major painpoints for users that our early research unlocked, so we designed Trameter to specifically address this - so yes, everything on each package generated gets booked within the app in 1 click.

Have you tried it out yet? Let me know what you think!
