Hoodz - Crowdsourced map to make your travels easier

by•

Planning a trip soon? Are you worried of staying in the wrong neighborhood?
Hoodz is a crowdsourced map that indicates the main atmosphere in a specific area: rich, student, hipster, suit, tourist and normal.

Why not a "Unsafe" atmosphere? That is what would make me use it every time I travel.

@michael_davey_schmidt Thanks for your suggestion! I try to avoid negative words as I think it could go wrong quickly but I see your point. I might try to find another way to put it so people can still have this information. It could be useful you're right :)

Hi there, hunters & makers! 👋 I'm Damien, junior maker 👶 This is my first time launching a product on PH, launching a product at all. I'm pretty excited about it! Everytime I go on a trip, I always google the different neighborhoods of the city trying to find the one that fit best my needs. But it takes time and sometimes it is not accurate. This is what Hoodz is trying to solve. Giving the chance to locals to describe their neighborhood. It could also be very useful when visiting a new city, not only for your staying. There are multiple use case for this app. Hoodmaps has been a great source of inspiration. It's a great product but IMO this is better suited for a mobile app. This is why I built Hoodz. Let me know what you think in the comments, I'll be happy to respond!

@growwithlogan Yes definitely. Like I said in my comment, Hoodmaps has been a great source of inspiration. It's a great product but IMO this is better suited for a mobile app. :)
