TripHappy
TripHappy is the ultimate guide to international travel, built by analyzing thousands of itineraries from real travelers....
Startup from United States of America
Description
Planning an international trip is hard. We know - we've had to plan many. There is too much information online, and it's hard to decide whom to trust. Most travel guides quickly become out-of-date, and are influenced by the opinion of their authors, who have financial incentive to make places sound wonderful and enticing. That's why we created TripHappy, a travel guide built by applying statistical analysis to over 20,000 traveler itineraries. Because our data comes from real traveler itineraries, our information is more up-to date and less biased than traditional travel guides. We're able to provide users with information like the most popular cities in a country, sample routes, what most travelers do, and how long travelers typically stay in each city.
Technology
We're a Ruby on Rails application, with a Coffeescript front-end, hosted on Heroku. We integrate with over 10 external APIs.
