Welcome to the next big thing in travel planning! If you’ve ever dreamt of an app that organises your entire trip, then dream no more. We’re thrilled (and slightly terrified) to finally put it out into the world. It’s been a wild ride, but, as they say, nothing worth launching was ever easy (or bug-free).
Meet the Team
Behind every brilliant app is a team of sleep-deprived, coffee-chugging creatives, developers, and visionaries who. Our team is small but mighty, and every single one of us is obsessed with making travel easier, better, and way more fun.
We’re a Melbourne based team operating out of Silicon Valley (Cremorne). Our devs have poured endless hours into Vaiva, making sure it’s as smooth as your dream flight (you know, the ones with no screaming babies and a ton of legroom). Our designers have crafted every single screen with love and probably just a little bit of caffeine-fuelled rage (seriously, the number of times we debated the colour of the ‘Start Planning’ button). And our content crew? Well, they’ve been on a rollercoaster trying to come up with travel inspo that’s as entertaining as it is informative.
Why We Built Vaiva
Vaiva was designed for travellers by travellers who don’t want to just check off sights from a list; we wanted an app that helped us dive deeper, plan better, and laugh a little more along the way. We are all about simplifying and streamlining your travel planning process and your journey - we want you to enjoy an elevated travel experience thanks to Vaiva Pro.
We know that travel can be stressful (anyone else ever try to make a connecting flight in under 30 minutes?), so we’ve added a good dose of humour. Vaiva is not just here to map your trip—it’s here to tell you that maybe scheduling six museum tours back-to-back wasn’t your best idea.
Building the Vaiva Community
Now, here’s where the real magic happens. The Vaiva community. This is where you, the travel lovers, the misadventurers, the jet-lagged troopers, come in. We’ve created a space for travellers who don’t just want to go from Point A to Point B but want to enjoy the adventure, every step of the way. From secret coffee spots in Barcelona to the most mind-blowing sunrise spots in Bali, we want Vaiva to be more than an app; we want it to be a movement.
Our community is already starting to grow. The stories, tips, and experiences are as diverse as our users, and we’re totally here for it. Whether you’re a seasoned solo traveller or a first-time adventurer, we want you in on this. Help each other out, share the love, and maybe (definitely) give us feedback on how to make Vaiva better.
The Brand
Vaiva isn’t just a travel app; it’s a whole vibe. The brand is all about going off the beaten path, making mistakes, and laughing about it later. We don’t want perfection; we want real experiences.
So yes, if you notice that Vaiva is a little sarcastic, well, it’s because travel is, too. From flight delays to “scenic detours” (aka getting hopelessly lost), we believe that humour is essential when you’re halfway across the world wondering why you packed three pairs of shoes and zero adapters.
So… What’s Next? 🚀
With the launch of Vaiva, we’re just getting started. We have so many updates, features, and surprises in store that our developers may or may not be quietly sobbing about in the background. Expect more ways to customise your trips, smarter recommendations, and some nifty tools to help you make each trip the best one yet.
From all of us on Team Vaiva: Happy travels, and remember—if you get lost, it just means you’re finding something new 🏖️.
