👋 Welcome to Tern! Our goal is to help friends get together in real places

Summary

Problem

People are increasingly connected to one another online, which has led to a rise in the number of virtual friendships. These friendships can bring people together from all over the world, regardless of geographical boundaries or cultural differences. As these virtual friendships grow and develop, they often lead to in-person meetings and real-world connections. This trend has become so prevalent that it is now common for people to travel to meet their internet friends or attend conferences with them.

Challenges

• Getting people to commit to a trip (”are we really doing this?”)
• Confidence of being repaid for the person booking the accommodations. Reserving accommodations makes a trip ‘real’ and keeps the rest of the planning in motion.
• Organizing places to stay so that they’re visible to everyone (usually ends up in couple spreadsheets, links etc)
• Visibility of communal costs per individual
• Gated access for online groups/communities/DAOs

Solution: A way for groups of internet friends to plan and organize trips together.
