Hey, we're looking for Instagram microinfluencers in sports niche. Looking for people posting content related to Fifa WC.

Most travel tools still start with the destination. But for event travel that’s not really how people think.

If you’re traveling for a match, concert, festival, race, or tournament, the event is the reason for the trip. The date, city, and venue are already fixed.

The confusing part is everything around because tickets, hotels, flights all end up scattered across different apps.

This is the problem we’re trying to solve with SeatWiz.

The idea is simple: start with the event first, then plan the full trip around it: tickets, hotels, flights, dates, and total cost in one place, with the final goal of letting people book everything there too.

We’ve done some early research with 400+ event travelers, and the signal seems pretty strong so far:

• 54.4% use 3+ websites/apps to book one event trip
• 68.1% said finding affordable hotels near the venue is their biggest frustration
• 65.7% struggle with finding tickets at a fair price
• 59.8% have missed a live event because booking became too complex or expensive
• 92.7% said they would use a platform that bundles event tickets, flights, and hotels

So it feels like there’s a real problem here, but survey data is still survey data.

Would love to hear what people here think.

Does the idea make sense?
Would you use something like this for sports, concerts, festivals, F1, or World Cup?
What would make you trust a tool that helps plan and eventually book the whole event trip?

Still in beta: https://seatwiz.ai/

Event trips are still too easy to mess up, so we’re building something to fix that.

Here's the origin story:

A few friends were planning a trip around a sports event, but it turned out that one of them ended up booked on a different flight. It was not a disaster because everyone got there at the end. But it changed the start of the trip and made the problem pretty obvious: Event travel is treated like separate purchases, even though one small mismatch can mess up the whole experience.

When you travel for a match, concert, festival, race, or tournament, the event is fixed — date, city, venue.

But the trip around it is scattered across ticket sites, flight searches, hotel platforms, WhatsApp chats, and unclear total costs.

And this was the genesis of the idea: instead of making people plan around five separate booking flows, let’s help them plan the full trip around the event itself, through one single place.

Before we dig into it, we had to do a reality-check and see what the market is thinking. So we ran a survey with 400+ verified event travelers across 25+ countries.

A few things stood out:

• 54.4% use 3 or more websites/apps to book one event trip
• 68.1% said finding affordable hotels near the venue is their biggest frustration
• 65.7% struggle with finding tickets at a fair price
• 59.8% have missed a live event because booking became too complex or expensive
• 92.7% said they would use a platform that bundles event tickets, flights, and hotels

This was the moment when team decided to go all-in and build SeatWiz -> https://seatwiz.ai/

SeatWiz helps fans plan event trips around the event they want to attend, with the final goal of letting them book tickets, hotels, and flights through one place.

It’s still in beta, currently free, and we’re looking for feedback from people who travel for sports, concerts, festivals, F1, World Cup, or any big live event. I'd really appreciate your thoughts on this.

Main things I’d love feedback on:

1. Is the problem clear quickly enough?
2. Does the event-first angle feel different from a normal AI trip planner?
3. What would make you trust a product that helps package tickets, hotels, and flights?
4. Would you start with one event category first, like World Cup / concerts / F1, or support many event types from day one?
5. What would you need to see before joining the waitlist or trying the beta?

Happy to hear blunt feedback. We’re still shaping the flow, positioning, and first use cases.

I joined the team a bit later, so I’m not going to pretend that this was my original “aha” moment.

But the story behind the idea is pretty straightforward.

Few friends were on a trip around a sports event. But, one of the friends ended up booked on a different flight. That's not a big disaster, it happens often. However, it changed the starting "vibe" of the whole trip. It was actually a small mismatch that killed the excitement before the trip even starts.

And that that was а genesis of an idea to build what we're building now.

When you travel for a match, concert, festival, race, or tournament, the event is the anchor. Date, city, venue - everything is (usually) fixed before.

But, when it comes to tickets, flights and hotels, most of us are using a bunch of different apps to sort all of that. And there is where it becomes messy.

Total cost only becomes clear after too much clicking around.

So the idea was: what if the trip started with the event?

For example: “What event do you want to attend?”

Then the rest gets built around that: tickets, hotels, flights, dates, and total cost.

But before we dig into it, we had to do a reality-check and see what the market is thinking. So we ran a survey with 400+ verified event travelers across 25+ countries.

And basically a few things stood out:

* 54.4% use 3 or more websites/apps to book one event trip

* 68.1% said finding affordable hotels near the venue is their biggest frustration

* 65.7% struggle with finding tickets at a fair price

* 59.8% have missed a live event because booking became too complex or expensive

* 92.7% said they would use a platform that bundles event tickets, flights, and hotels

Hey everyone, we're building SeatwizAI at the moment.

The app is built for people who're travelling to sports events/concerts and the goal is to make the full event booked and sorted through one app.

How it works at the moment - you tell where you want to go (for example Fifa Wolrd Cup), what is your budget, how many people are traveling and we'll find the plane tickets, event tickets and accommodation.

The product is currently in beta, but we appreciate any kind of feedback from the community.

If anyone here's from the Balkans you already know what rakija is. If not, google it real quick (spoiler: it's basically a homemade fruit brandy).
So according to family lore, I was around 2 or 3yo when my grandad came over to visit. My dad poured him a glass of rakija like any good Balkan host, set it down on the table and apparently didn't think twice about it, because who would expect a toddler to go full speedrun mode on rakija?
Well, I did it. Grabbed it and downed the whole thing in like two secs, before anyone could react. Cue absolute panic in the room lol.

But my dad said that luckily, my body did what it was supposed to do.

That's the story of how I had my first and most aggressive hangover before I could even tie my shoes.
