The Story Behind Sendatz
Creating new connections between travelers and local guides
Reimagining the Essence of Travel
Hello, I'm the developer behind Sendatz. Through my own travel experiences, I've often thought "if only there was a local guide who really knows this place, my journey would be so much more special." Existing guide services are expensive and complicated to book. The idea for Sendatz was born from a simple wish: what if there was an affordable guide service that anyone could easily use?
Our Vision
Travelers don't always need expensive tour guides. We aim to provide a service that connects them with "reliable locals" at an affordable price.
Connecting Locals & Travelers
We provide a platform where locals and travelers can easily meet, facilitating exchanges beyond language barriers. New income streams for guides, special experiences for travelers.
Affordable Access
We strive for pricing that's accessible to travelers with any budget. With hourly booking options, we offer flexibility from short tours to full-day experiences.
Simple & Easy to Use
We aim to create a service that anyone can use easily with an intuitive interface, eliminating complicated booking processes. Minimizing hassle during your travels.
Our Commitment to Excellence
Prioritizing User Experience
In my daily development work, I constantly ask myself, "Is this actually easy to use?" I actively incorporate user feedback and continuously improve the service.
Believing in Community Power
Sendatz is a platform that grows together with its users. I value the voices of both travelers and guides, and aim to create value together.
Sendatz Features
We offer a new form of travel experience that stands apart from conventional guide services.
Three Ways to Connect
There are three ways for travelers and guides to meet:
- ①On-demand Guide: For sudden schedule changes or spontaneous sightseeing. Call a guide in your area immediately when you need guidance right away.
- ②Guide Request: For planned travels. Post your travel schedule and preferences, and receive applications from guides who match your conditions.
- ③Guide Plan Purchase: Choose from special plans created by guides. Find and book experiences that match your interests from a variety of plans created by local professionals.
Benefits for Guides
We also offer plenty of benefits for participating as a guide:
- ✓Earn income working in your favorite places at your preferred times
- ✓Connect with people from around the world and utilize your language skills and knowledge
- ✓Create and sell special guide plans that leverage your strengths
- ✓Promote local attractions and contribute to tourism development
Looking Ahead
Currently advancing step by step as an individual developer, I aspire to grow Sendatz into a global platform used in many tourist destinations. Starting with one city, I plan to gradually expand our coverage area while accumulating successful experiences.
With the motto "Connecting everyone easily with locals," we will continue to provide new options for how people travel. I would be grateful if you would watch over Sendatz's growth.
