Arvel - Share and Try New Experiences (AI-free zone)

by
Everyone experiences life uniquely, with favorite places to eat, hike, travel, and more. We thought, why not build a platform where people can share happy moments to guide others to have a similar experience?! Imagine all new things people could experience!

Over the last 2 years, we've built various versions of Arvel to bridge the gap between supply and demand as we envisioned it. We started with text-based experience sharing, then pivoted to a pre-built travel itinerary marketplace, moved to B2B software for travel content creators, then switched to a custom itineraries platform - nothing worked. Along the way, we built and abandoned 2 different mobile apps, rebuilt the platform from scratch 6-7 times, and updated our landing page 100s times to convey our idea. It was a real hassle, and nothing seemed to work until the current version, where we decided to open up the platform to everyone and focus building something that truly makes people happy. You might wonder what kept us going?! We’re a group of friends who are always seeking new experiences. We believe that everyone experiences life uniquely, with their favorite places to eat, hike, swim, travel, play games, and more. We thought, what if everyone could share their favorite experiences? There would be so much to do and enjoy! Long story short, we launched the current version 8-9 days ago and received over 2,000 waitlist sign-ups - mind-blowing! Please gives us an UPVOTE, we appreciate your support!

@elnarsharifli Hi Elnar, congratulations on the PH launch. That's quite an interesting journey but that's what entrepreneurship is all about. Finding solutions is never a straightforward way. It's great to see how far you have come though. But it's even more impressive that you're still working on it. The current website looks quite fun. Your footer is all over the place though.

@ashtrac, thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts! I really appreciate it. You're right, it's all part of the journey. Once we got used to and started enjoying continuous failures, we experienced a stroke of serendipity with the current release, haha. Could you please let me know which device you're using? We'll certainly look into it and fix it asap.
