👋 Hey fellow nomads! I'm building something for solo travelers who want to save money and meet like-minded people on the road.
🚀 What I'm building
It’s called SplitStay — a new traveltech platform that lets solo travelers match and safely split hotel rooms (or 2BR apartments) with other verified travelers.
Think Couchsurfing meets Airbnb, but with real control over who you match with — and the option to still have private space.
💡 Why I'm building it
After a year of solo travel (and way too many overpriced single occupancy rooms), I realized we’re all paying double — while the second bed stays empty.
We’re testing the idea to see if a platform can:
• Help travelers save 50% on accommodations
• Create spontaneous connections without sacrificing comfort
• Offer a smarter alternative to dorms or ghost-town Airbnbs
🧪 What I need help with
We’re currently in early testing and collecting feedback from solo travelers.
If you’ve ever traveled solo, I’d love to hear:
• Would you ever try something like this?
• What would make you feel safe and comfortable sharing a space?
• Any relevant communities or events this could resonate with?
