The gap
Build angle
Strengths
- Clear, understandable problem with measurable search volume
- Low technical barrier to MVP (web scraping + email)
- Potential affiliate revenue model (booking commissions)
- Niche audience (budget-conscious European travelers) is well-defined
- Timing: post-COVID route expansion is real
Risks
- Demand validation gap: search volume ≠ willingness to use a tool (may just be brand searches)
- Weak monetization: travelers won't pay; affiliate margins are thin for budget airlines
- Airline dependency: routes change frequently; content becomes stale quickly
- Low switching costs: users can easily check airline websites directly or use Google Flights
- Crowded space: Google Flights, Skyscanner, and airline apps already surface new routes
- Sustainability: requires constant scraping/manual updates with minimal revenue
