Hey PH, Kani from Mitty team here.
👋 First of all, thanks @gillianim for hunting us
🚀Mitty is an All in one Travel App that lets you instantly use all essential travel services while travelling around the world.
📖Story
We are a team of travel enthusiasts from Kyrgyz Republic who decided to launch this project due to our frustration of spending too much time while travelling on googling basic things like what kind of app to use for booking a restaurant or train ticket. Combined with our belief that an individual does not need hundreds of apps and will eventually use 10-15 most essential ones, we thought having all the services in one place is a way to go.
💡Solution
We created an easy to use app with minimalistic interface with 15 services that switch from one service provider to another depending on where you are. Just tap on the service you would like to use and Mitty will instantly open the local service provider. At the moment it’s only available in 12 most visited cities in the world, but we will integrate more cities shortly. We have also added a bit of information about the city with basic info and key attractions. Best part is that if you live in one of the cities that Mitty supports, you can continue to use it instead of having 15 different apps on the phone (hence saving storage and battery).
🗺️ Curation methodology:
We decided to integrate one local leader for each service category, so that travellers don’t need to decide on which service provider to choose from. Our methodology takes into consideration following factors: popularity, interface design, functionality. For example OpenTable will be preferred restaurant booking platform for American and European cities, whereas Zomato will be preferred in Dubai since it has significantly more restaurants to choose from in that region. We are open to suggestions from the community, and users can add a suggestion for the better service provider inside the app.

@afanasiy Hey Afanasiy! That's correct. You get the prize ;)
We think the way Walter Mitty was represented in the movie is exactly what we want to achieve. With one app you can go anywhere in the world without any preparation and feel totally comfortable there :)
