Real-time, verified city chatrooms for travelers built around actual trip dates

1•aacishh•2mo ago
I recently launched Trespot, a travel community app built around a simple idea: travelers should only see and talk to people who will actually be in the same city during the same dates.

Most “travel community” apps today are basically social networks, forums, or WhatsApp/FB groups. Anyone can join, spam is common, conversations are irrelevant, and there’s no sense of who is actually traveling versus who is just browsing.

Trespot works differently.

Users must upload a valid trip ticket (flight, train, bus) and select their real travel dates. Once verified, they’re placed into a city chatroom only for the duration of their trip. When the trip ends, they’re automatically removed.

This creates a small, temporary, high-trust community of real travelers who are physically present at the same time. People share tips, coordinate meetups, ask last-minute questions, and discover things happening around them in real time. No noise, no outdated group chats.

Trespot also includes a live activity feed for each city, and we’re building layers like an honor-based reputation system, event discovery, and even travel-based social/dating features driven by actual location and timing.

The goal isn’t to be another “travel app”, but to create a verified social layer for global travel where the interactions are meaningful and grounded in reality, not generic posts.

Would love feedback from this community, especially around scaling, product design choices, trust systems, and privacy considerations.

Re: Users must upload a valid trip ticket (flight, train, bus)

What if I'm just driving there for a day/weekend/week? I see this app being especially useful for people in RVs, but they would have no flight/bus/train ticket to document their intent.

aacishh•2mo ago
Great question, and you’re absolutely right, not every traveler has a flight, bus, or train ticket. A huge part of our future user base includes road-trippers, RV travelers, bikers, and weekend explorers.

We’re already working on an update where GPS-based verification will automatically confirm that you’ve actually traveled a certain distance or entered the city boundary.

This means even if you’re driving in for a day, weekend, or an extended road trip, the app will still verify your presence and allow you to join that city’s community chat.
