Wiwo – Find events happening around you. Google Maps, but for events.

Hey everyone in the USA! I'm developing a map-based event discovery platform that helps people find unique and exciting events in their city or area. I imagine that it could help young locals who are searching what is to be attended in their area & tourists who are visiting and want to find what to do in the area. But before I unleash it on the world, I need your help! One major pain point that I am trying to solve is information overload and difficulty in discovering relevant events nearby. Traditionally, people might rely on social media, local newspapers, or word-of-mouth to find events…

In plain words

Wiwo is a map-based event discovery platform that helps users find local events in their area. It is designed for young people looking for things to do in their city and tourists exploring a new location. The platform addresses information overload by consolidating events from scattered sources and presenting them in a filtered, location-based format with relevant details all in one place.

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hey everyone in the USA! I'm developing a map-based event discovery platform that helps people find unique and exciting events in their city or area. I imagine that it could help young locals who are searching what is to be attended in their area & tourists who are visiting and want to find what to do in the area. But before I unleash it on the world, I need your help! One major pain point that I am trying to solve is information overload and difficulty in discovering relevant events nearby. Traditionally, people might rely on social media, local newspapers, or word-of-mouth to find events happening around them. These methods can be: Scattered: Information is spread across different sources, making it time-consuming to search. Unfiltered: Showing a large amount of events, not necessarily relevant to individual interests. Limited information: Often lacking key details like event descriptions, schedules, or ticket options. So my MVP address these issues by: Aggregating: Bringing together event information from multiple sources in one place. Personalization: Using filters and user preferences to recommend relevant events. Visualization: Displaying events on a map, allowing users to discover events based on location and proximity. Detailed information: Providing comprehensive descriptions and links to purchase tickets. What other features I plan to build: Build-in resell marketplace, own event upload, live-streaming, PPV and more. However I find it difficult to get any feedback on the platform. I've tried paid ads, posting to other Early Adopters websites, personally reaching out to people, who I think are target users, but do not get any meaningful feedback. So I'm eager to hear your honest opinions: What works well in the platform? What needs improvement? Are there any features you'd like to see added? Your feedback will be invaluable in shaping the future of Wiwo! P.S. For now only US users are needed, as other won't find events in their areas :)

    Hi, this is a project I have been working on for the last 1 month. :) The search engine is designed to make discovering events easier and faster with only one search input. To keep my budget down, only these cities are available for search at the moment: Barcelona, Berlin, Hamburg, Lisbon, London, Munich, NYC, Paris, SF, Singapore. (I’m happy to take on requests) The tech stack is Rails 8, Tailwind. What do you think?
