    I've built Villagers, a group travel app, in an attempt to overcome my own social isolation while working remotely, especially as someone who's friends are now largely parents and much less available for group travel. I find small group travel magical from an interpersonal and experience standpoint but organizing trips is absolutely brutal. With Villagers, I wanted to see if software could overcome some of those planning challenges with financial incentives, social features, and automation -- especially around messaging. I love climbing, so I've built a trip to co-work and climb in Red Rocks…

    Hey everyone! I'm introducing Radius - a project I've been working on for too long! It's an early stage and pretty minimal (which, according to YC means I launched early enough) alternative to Meetup.com, built using Ruby on Rails. It's a platform for creating thriving communities and discovering events around you. What can you do on Radius? - Want to create a group, post events and gather RSVPs? You're covered! - Want event discovery? Coming soon™! I'm a software engineer based in the UK. My first attempt to make this failed spectacularly when I hired a budget dev years ago to "build an…

    Ever feel exhausted by the endless back-and-forth of "When should we meet?" and "How much does everyone owe?" when organizing events with friends or family? I've been there too, and found that existing tools were either too feature-heavy or required tedious account setup. That's why I built Nowa - an event management app focused on just the essentials that works by simply sharing a URL, no registration required. Key Features No-signup invitations - Just share a URL or QR code and anyone can join instantly. I prioritized simplicity so even grandparents can use it without confusion. Intuitive…
