💡 AI Business Idea #43

AI Flight Search Engine ✈️

“Google Flights & Sky Scanner, and wrapped it with an LLM”

✈️ The Spark:

I saw this reddit post from a digital nomad who built a natural language flight search engine → https://hyikko.com/


He reverse-engineered Google Flights + Skyscanner and slapped on an LLM to make the UX insanely smart.

“Show me the cheapest flights to anywhere sunny in November, leaving from Europe with under 2 layovers.”
✅ Boom. Calendar. Heatmap. Price graphs. Magic.

🔥 It works. People are using it. It’s already wild.
Now let’s steal it, juice it, and turn it into a SaaS empire.

💡 The Idea: "FlightGPT" – AI-Powered Travel Hacker Tool

Search flights in natural language. Get secret deals, calendar flex hacks, and route combos no human would think of.

🧠 Why This Works:

  • Frustration-based demand: Travel sites suck for flexible plans. “Anywhere cheap in August” doesn’t work on Google Flights.

  • LLMs thrive on fuzzy logic: “beach + chill + <$600 + off-season” = dream use case

  • Nomad + budget travel boom: There’s a whole TikTok/Reddit audience living for this.

  • High intent = easy monetization: If you help someone save $300 or find their dream trip, affiliate + upsell game is strong.

🔍 Core Features:

  1. Natural Language Search
    “Cheapest warm destinations from Berlin next 3 weekends”

  2. Multi-destination Comparison
    “Compare flights to Bali, Lisbon, or Medellín in November”

  3. Calendar Heatmap
    Visualize best travel dates by price/time/weather

  4. Trip Type Filters
    “Workcation,” “Party week,” “Solo chill trip,” etc.

  5. Reverse Flight Planning
    “I want to spend 10 days in 3 countries starting July 12” → LLM builds optimized routes

  6. Deal Alerts + AI Suggestions
    “Hey, Tokyo just dropped to $488 for next month”

💸 Monetization:

  • Affiliate commissions: flights, hotels, insurance, etc.

  • Premium: $7/month for advanced filters + alert customizations

  • Travel Hacker Plan: $49/month → optimize complex trips, nomad routing, etc.

  • B2B: White-label for travel influencers or remote work retreats

🚀 Growth Channels:

  • TikTok: “AI finds the cheapest place to fly this weekend 🫣✈️”

  • Reddit sleeper posts in r/digitalnomad, r/solotravel, r/cheaptravel

  • Travel YouTubers doing walkthroughs

  • Twitter/X thread bros: “This free AI just saved me $912 on flights”

🛠️ Stack Ideas:

  • Frontend: Vercel/Next.js

  • Backend: Supabase + Python wrapper

  • API scraping: Skyscanner, Google Flights via unofficial APIs

  • LLM layer: GPT-4o for query translation

  • Graph engine: D3.js for visual results

🧨 Bonus Stupid (Genius) Features:

  • “Flight Roulette” → spin the AI wheel, get a wild destination

  • “Breakup Trip Planner” → cheapest flights with best food + no memories

  • “Burnout Escape Plan” → AI builds a last-minute sabbatical route under $900

That is an banger idea, isn’t it? 🤯

ADHD Brain Fart Idea 💡

👯‍♂️ Rent-a-Friend for Grocery Shopping

“Because why not?!”

🤝 What It Does:

You book a fake friend → they show up, chat awkwardly, offer questionable advice on which chips to buy, and pretend they actually want to hang out while you grocery shop.

“No real commitment. Just vibes and social camouflage.”

🛒 His Service:

👟 Social Buffer Mode
– Walk with someone who laugh at your jokes
– He acts shocked when you add ice cream to the cart twice

🥫 Snack Recommender
– “Not sure about these beans, but the chips will change your life.”

🎯 Bonus Features:

📱 Fake Friend App - schedule, chat prep, mood matcher

🎭 Roleplay Styles - The Sarcastic Bestie, The Overenthusiastic Newbie, The Silent Sidekick

💸 Pay-Per-Visit or Monthly Subscription - for those who need chronic grocery wingmen

🔥 Why This Would Blow Up:

It’s awkwardness IRL made easier

Solves the “Why am I here alone buying 7 kinds of cereal?” existential crisis

TikTok gold: “I hired a fake friend for groceries and here’s how it went...”

🔥 Hot Topics Right Now

See you tomorrow or inside the skool.

And if you have questions, just reply to this email.
I read & answer all of them, no joke! 😂
