FlightDrop

Hello Product Hunt! I'm thrilled to launch Flight Drop. The "Why" (The Frustration That Started It All) Like many travelers, I knew that booked flight prices drop all the time, making you eligible for an airline credit. I started manually tracking my own flights and, over a year, I claimed over $350 in credits. The problem? That process was pure agony. It involved setting 3x daily reminders, manually checking specific fare classes on clunky airline sites, and spending hours on the phone. It was easily 20 hours of frustrating, repetitive work. I realized that if the process took this much effort, the majority of travelers were leaving hundreds of dollars on the table every year—just because the airlines don't want to make it easy. The Challenge (The Technical Hurdle) I set out to build a tool that completely automates those 20 hours of work. The biggest challenge wasn't the booking logic; it was the data. Getting reliable, non-throttled, real-time price data for specific, booked fare classes from major airline sites is like fighting a digital dragon. We've spent months building a robust IP-cycling, proxy-based data stack just to ensure we catch those fleeting price drops without getting banned. Our Ask to the PH Community We are launching our public beta and would love your candid feedback. Specifically: Pricing: We settled on a "no-brainer" annual fee ($20/year) because we believe the service pays for itself immediately on the first claim. Do you prefer this flat, predictable fee, or would you trust a "pay-per-successful-claim" model more? Trust: Since this involves connecting to your booking, what is the single most important thing we could do (in terms of security or transparency) to earn your trust? Thank you for checking out Flight Drop! We hope this saves you time, money, and sanity on your next trip!
