Pangea - Explore the World, Together

Hi Everyone - Matt here. I'm thrilled to finally launch Pangea on Product Hunt with our Summer 2026 Release.

Pangea helps you discover where friends are traveling, connect with like-minded travelers, get trusted recommendations, and build a living map of everywhere you've explored.

It's what I wanted in my travels to 123+ countries and I built it because nothing else came close.

🥳 More than just an app: we're celebrating around the world

Rather than hosting a single launch event, our community is gathering in 30+ countries across 6 continents with local meetups happening during local evening hours throughout the day from Sydney to Los Angeles.

If you'd like to celebrate with us, find an event near you here! and stay tuned in the comments to see the meetups live.

🔴 Problem:

• Consumer travel apps are fragmented leaving travelers consistently underserved

• Incumbent players miss the most important part: travel is about people & experiences more than bookings & logistics

🟢 Solution:

• Assemble a team of full-time travelers & product creators who fully grasp the complexity of the challenge so we don't just "build another travel app"

• Apply a new approach to consolidate apps (starting with Overlap, Nomadago, & Flaire) into one integrated platform

• Create a lasting category leader, becoming the "Strava for Travel" focused on Social Travel & IRL Experiences by making travel more authentic and connected

📲 What's Pangea do?

• Keep track of where friends (and friends of friends) are now, and where they're going (and thinking about going)

• Meet other like minded travelers & join communities around the world

• Get recommendations from people you trust who have been before

• Visualize the trips you've taken, countries/states/cities you've visited, and recommendations you've saved on an interactive and customizable profile

• LAUNCH DAY BETA: Get personalized AI insights about the places you're going, including people from your network who will be nearby, local contacts, recommendations, delivered to your inbox exactly when you need them

🚀 Where the App is headed?

• Automated ways to import past and future trips

• Customization in the way you visualize your travels

• More ways to add, organize, discover and share recommendations (once we integrate Flaire)

• More ways to connect with the right people, events, meetups, communities & group trips, anywhere in the world

• Continued refinement and expansion of our AI individual & group trip planning capabilities

Our summer release brings together several key features laying the foundation to become the leading travel app: built by travelers for travelers.

And beyond the app, our incredible community will continue to host trips, events, meetups, and more so you can Explore the World, Together 🌎🌍🌏

Would love to hear what you think!

Matt

PS: I've been to 123 countries in 12 years of full-time travel, and am on a mission to explore them all. I started Pangea because no other apps were fully solving the challenges I faced, and most of the ones that started disappeared after a year or two. I knew there must be a better way. We are far from perfect, but headed in the right direction to become the most comprehensive social travel, and have no intention of stopping anytime soon.

Congratulations on the launch team!

Pangea is going from strength to strength at the moment - it's one of the best places to find other remote workers on the road, whether you're in your home city or away.

Looking forward to seeing what you do next!

I'm so excited that there's finally an app that enough of my friends are already using to easily see who's already been where I'm going so I can ask for recommendations and plan trips with other friends who also want to go! The Pangea Trips that are launching in 2027 also look EPIC!

Yes! So many of my travel friends are on Pangea and it really makes meeting up and planning trips SO much easier 🙌 also love the community it’s built - looking forward to joining the Cape Town

meetup later today 🎉 I’m sure Pangea will continue to grow and soon become the #1 social travel app globally!

Happy Launch Day!! Team has absolutely killed it, pumped about the future of Pangea!

Checking in from the Pangea meetup in Sri Lanka, partnered with Nomadico & Slow Life Coliving in Hiriketiya 🥳🥳

We’ve been partnering with Pangea at Outsite for a while, and it’s been exciting to watch the community grow. Pangea is quickly becoming the go-to community for digital nomads around the world—helping people connect, share experiences, and feel at home wherever they are. Congratulations on the launch! 🚀

Congrats Matt this is so huge! You guys have a phenomenal product and are absolutely crushing it. So glad I can be of help and to watch you succeed. Love the product!!

One of my favorite things about Pangea is the recommendations. I’ve discovered some incredible cafés, restaurants, and hidden gems that I never would’ve found otherwise. It’s become my go-to whenever I’m planning a trip. 🙌

Happy faces from Delhi Meetup 🩵

Love the app - tracking all my trips in one place and all my travel buddies couldn’t be easier! ❤️ Congrats Pangea team!

Amazing meetup in Bansko, Bulgaria today!
