✈️ Hackathon: Destination Hack Brazil 2015
In October 2015, our team participated in the Destination Hack Brazil, a hackathon organized by Amadeus in São Paulo. The challenge was to create solutions that reinvent travel experiences by leveraging Amadeus APIs.
We built Atâiru, an iOS app that helps users discover destinations aligned with their travel style and budget using a gamified quiz interface. Alongside it, we developed a web dashboard for travel agencies to better understand customer profiles and offer personalized packages.
Key Features
- Interactive travel quiz to determine traveler type
- Real-time suggestions based on Amadeus data
- Trophy-based gamification to encourage exploration
- Integration with Facebook for sharing and login
- Agency-facing dashboard to display destination trends
