. Background

. Background

I came up with the idea for this product based on the difficulties I faced whenever I traveled. As a travel enthusiast, I always found joy and had more interesting experiences when I planned and executed trips on my own, rather than through a travel agency. However, this process required a lot of time and effort due to the scattered information across various platforms. It would be wonderful to have an app that made all of this easier. Thus, I conducted some market and user research to clearly understand the issues and began developing the solution.

. Problems

Based on the study of Vietnamese travel experience behavior in 2018, it shows that a large number of young people prefer to travel independently (78%) and travel with the group (89%) rather than traveling on a good tour or go alone.


To prepare for the trip, usually they have to make a plan, but often encounter problems such as:


1 It takes too much time to find information to plan the trip.

2 They have difficulty determining travel time and distance from point to point to arrange the schedule so that it is reasonable.

3 Must use another Chat app (Viber, FB Messenger ...) to talk to their group.

4 It is inconvenient to manage your budget and trip costs, especially when traveling with a group.
