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
48-hour challenge with access to Amadeus developers and tools

This event helped me explore travel-related APIs and brought together skills in mobile UX, API integration, and creative teamwork. It was also a great opportunity to learn more about how personalization can transform travel discovery.
