From quitting my job to 12,000+ trips being planned with my AI travel planner. Here's how I did it.
2.5 years ago, I quit my job with no backup plan. Today, I'm making a living from Tern, the AI travel planner I built in my bedroom. Here's the raw, unfiltered story of how it happened:
Numbers, Because Product Hunt Loves Data
✈️ 12,000+ trips planned
👥 Paying customers from 9 countries (started monetizing 2 months ago, still free for most users)
🌍 Users from 120 countries
⭐ 5/5 stars on Product Hunt (and 1 of the 20 products hunted by CEO @rajiv_ayyangar )
💰 $0 spent on marketing
🕒 14-hour days, 7 days/week in the beginning
📦 400+ updates shipped
