✈️ We just launched Ava — your personal flight co-pilot on WhereFlight!
A few days ago, I shared about WhereFlight.com
— a flight tracking platform I built to make travel simpler and more human.
Today, I’m excited to introduce Ava, our new intelligent travel assistant 🧠
Ava isn’t just another chatbot — she has full flight context, knows where you’re going, and helps you discover local attractions, dining spots, and things to do right from the flight tracking page.
💬 You can ask Ava things like:
• “When does EK540 land?”
• “Any good restaurants near Dubai Airport?”
• “What can I explore if I arrive early?”
Ava turns flight tracking into a personalized travel experience — and it’s now live for everyone on WhereFlight.com
.
🚀 We’re also launching on Product Hunt today — would love your feedback and thoughts!
Curious — if you travel often, what’s one thing that always feels stressful before or after a flight?
Congrats on launching Ava! The concept of contextual travel assistance during flight tracking is smart.
Quick UX thought: Since Ava already handles natural language for questions, why not extend that to the main search bar too?
Instead of requiring flight numbers like "EK540", let users type things like:
Then parse it into the actual flight search. Would make discovery way more intuitive, especially for people who don't have a flight number yet but want to track someone arriving.
Very intriguing thought — I’ll explore this direction a bit more. Thanks for the valuable input!
Big congrats on shipping your platform! It looks great. But I'm just curious, what marketing approach worked best for your launch?
Currently, no marketing as such. Posting on Product Hunt was a great thing though. And also improving seo worked out.
I get it. Building Ava’s intelligent UX is a serious win, and I know the grind of launching something this polished.
But chasing vanity metrics and vague traveler pain points is leaving revenue on the table, disconnected from a real financial goal. You’ve got intelligence, but no predictable revenue funnel.
Pivot now: weaponize Ava’s personalized outputs, like local dining recommendations, into micro-offers tied to a Conversion Certainty Sequence with a travel partner.
How are you turning those responses into referral revenue that justifies the engineering?
