Overview

Planning a trip properly takes many hours of cross-checking that most travelers simply won't do themselves — routes, bookings, timings all verified and assembled into one itinerary. The inspiration half of trip planning is already abundant and free online; the value here is entirely in the verified, practical layer built with ChatGPT and Perplexity. Sold per trip to travel creators, families and business travelers who want a plan they can actually follow, not another list of ideas.

Why it works

Planning a trip properly takes many hours of cross-checking that most travellers will not do, and the value is in verified timings and the practical layer - the inspiration half is already abundant and free.

How it makes money

One-off project

How to start

  1. Choose a region you know or can learn deeply; generic itineraries are already free.
  2. Interview the traveller about pace, budget, mobility and what they want to avoid.
  3. Build the route around realistic transit times rather than map distances.
  4. Use Perplexity for options, then confirm opening hours and prices on the operator's own site.
  5. Never publish a booking detail from an AI summary; these change constantly and a closed museum ruins a day.
  6. Book nothing on the client's behalf - supply the links and let them transact.
  7. Include the practical layer: transfers, luggage, reservation windows, quiet days.
  8. Lay it out day by day in Canva as something usable on a phone offline.
  9. Add alternatives for weather and closures.
  10. Charge a fixed fee per trip by length and complexity.
  11. Follow up afterwards and fold what went wrong into the next itinerary.
