JetSet AI (https://bit.ly/4besn7l) — flight search in plain English instead of the usual date-picker maze.

Type "cheapest flight from London to Tokyo, flexible on dates in April" and it returns live results with real pricing. I compared a few against Google Flights and they matched. Not mocked data.

The part I found interesting: it runs on a dedicated VM so it keeps context across the conversation. If you say "actually make that business class" or "what about flying into Osaka instead" it knows what you were looking at. Most chat-based search tools lose that between messages.

I didn't build it from scratch — it's a pre-built app in the SuperNinja App Store that I deployed and have been extending. The deploy itself took about 60 seconds. The extending part is what I've been spending time on: describing changes in plain text and watching them go live without touching a repo.

Still figuring out what the right UX is for flexible-date search. Curious if anyone has opinions on that.

For those wondering why there are downvotes, the site immediately asks to connect your crypto wallet and won't stop.

Warning: Do not lick on the link.

Fair point — really valuable feedback, thank you. The dapp is still early and rough around the edges, and the wallet-first flow is a good example: I took the easy dev path — connect a wallet and your data gets tied to that address. Simple to build, but clearly the wrong UX choice.

You're right, nobody should be forced to connect a wallet just to try the app. I'll work on changing this — the plan is to let users explore and watch freely, and only prompt for a wallet when they want to save words.

For now and for better security, anyone interested can create a throwaway MetaMask wallet to try it — no gas needed, it's just wallet connect + SIWE sign-in for identity. (No other transactions will ever be issued.)
