Business Idea: A web app that scrapes local and foreign event posts based on user-defined topics, creating dynamic subscription calendars for quick, easy event discovery without relying on social media platforms.
Problem: Many people struggle to discover relevant local and international events, especially when key sources like Facebook are inaccessible or unreliable, making event discovery fragmented and tedious.
Solution: A simple-to-use app where users input a topic, then receive automatically updated calendars with related events they can subscribe to, enabling seamless access and staying informed on interests.
Target Audience: Young professionals, students, expatriates, hobbyists, and event enthusiasts who want quick access to relevant activities worldwide or locally without social media dependency.
Monetization: Potential revenue streams include premium subscriptions for enhanced features, sponsored event placements, or partnerships with event organizers for targeted promotion.
Unique Selling Proposition (USP): Unlike traditional event discovery platforms, this service offers real-time, personalized event calendars initiated by user interests, fully automating updates and eliminating social media dependence.
Launch Strategy: Start with a simple prototype and early access waitlist, gather user feedback, optimize scraping and subscription features, and gradually expand event sources to improve accuracy and value before broader marketing.
