Bardar - Make the most of every night out

Bardar is a new map app that connects nightlife patrons to venues and events in real-time. Initially based in Sydney, we display over 350 bars, pubs and nightclubs along with info about these venues such as what's on, ticketed events and live busyness data.

This is my product! I developed Bardar along with my cofounder Oli because we found it was way more difficult than it should be to organise and experience a great night out. As Gen Zs, Oli and I are accustomed to using helpful apps to organise and quality-assure real world experiences such as going out for dinner (OpenTable or TheFork), going to the movies (Rotten Tomatoes and Hoyts.com) or travelling (TripAdvisor, Google Maps and TripIt). But when it came to going out, we found there was no platform to help us find great experiences and avoid terrible ones. This is why we developed Bardar. First and foremost, we wanted an easy-to-use, all-in-one app to help us maximise our nights out. If it can help other people do the same, we think that's pretty awesome.

Congrats on the launch Dexter 🚀 How much effort does adding a new city involve? Asking because you didn't launch with the greatest city in Australia aka Melbourne 😂

@jgani Hi Jonni - Melbourne is definitely on the cards for us! With our current setup, it takes us about a week to onboard a new city, however, it's more about supporting any launch with a marketing effort to ensure success that is costly and time-consuming. TLDR though we do plan to launch in Melbourne before the end of 2024!

@djft Love your attitude towards marketing. I agree with you. It's important. My comment about Melbourne was tongue in cheek, don't let it influence your roadmap :) All the best with Bardar, Dexter.

If executed well this can be a great idea. I think you should promote it in Sydney based groups or via local influencers to get initial critical mass quickly. Congratulations on the launch .

A bar mile with goals (besides the obvious one)? Looks curious, it's always interesting to move towards something specific than just from bar to bar.

The idea is nice. Do you have any plans to expand Bardar to other cities or even globally in the future? Having a one-stop shop to discover nightlife options around the world would be amazing!

@tiepvuvan Yes, absolutely! Our goal is to become your ultimate nightlife guide, whether you're in Berlin or Buenos Aires. Just a few funding rounds between now and then haha.

@djft Great! Look forward to it. And hey, I just launched my new product, too. A tool to transform data sheets into mobile apps. If possible, I would love to have you take a look: https://www.producthunt.com/post.... Love to hear your thought, too!

@can13 Hi Can, thank you! We definitely plan to expand beyond Australia. First to Europe and the UK, and after that the US and SEA.

This is cool - and looks super slick (although I struggled a little with your stretched font!). Congratulations on launching - big moment! A Q: How are you thinking about commercialisation? Do venues pay to be featured? Do users subscribe to access?

@jade_grimwood Hi Jade - thank you! To answer your question we will always keep Bardar free for our end users (nightlife patrons) and we have several different commercialisation strategies. Our primary focus is currently generating a critical mass of users, but down the track, we'd be looking to generate revenue through partnering with venues, promoters and nightlife industry stakeholders to offer unique deals, rewards and promotions through the app to consumers.

@djft Love it. So very cool! Great to see you in the PH newsletter today too! Best of luck as you build into the future.
