Hey PH! 👋 Thanks to @rajiv_ayyangar for the hunt! I’m Tavishi, CEO and Founder of Tern. After over 1 year of hard work, today marks a significant milestone in our journey. We are excited to launch the new and improved Tern! (Also our first PH launch ever!!!!) Tern is a product born from a need I consistently felt while traveling. I spent 3 years (2021-2023) slow traveling, living in 15 cities. Tern has been rigorously tested during this time. I went from weeks of travel planning to landing in a location and spending just 1 hour to plan 3 weeks+ of activities. We hope to provide you with this same value. The name Tern is inspired by the Arctic tern, renowned for having the longest migratory pattern of any animal! Our mission is to empower the next generation of travelers by providing a flexible, collaborative, and intuitive travel planning experience. Tern is designed to adapt to your needs—use AI or don't, collaborate or plan on your own, and use Tern to inform people. Think of us as your go-to resource for travel, combining the best of a Google search with the organization of Google Docs or Notion. Everything is editable, and you can use the "Ask AI" chat to further refine your itinerary. We've already helped thousands of travelers, and are now starting to explore airport partnerships! (Feel free to reach out if you're curious.) Unlike other products on the market, we are a small and lean team of builders (female-led, operated, and funded—a rare combo) with minimal funding used to build this product. If you’d like to support us, you can buy us coffee, book your hotel through our affiliate links, or even invest in our vision for airports! Check out our website www.travelwithtern.com and feel free to DM me on Twitter @itstavishi, reach out to me at tavishi@travelwithtern.com, or comment below with any questions. We appreciate all feedback! We’re incredibly proud of what we've built and can’t wait for you to experience the fun of planning with Tern! Your support means the world to us, and thank you for being part of our story. Cheers, Tavishi

@chinmay_chandak1 Thank you!! Glad to hear the recommendations are well suited. The UI credit goes to @rabani_k, and animations/graphics are done by our very own @lytran!!
Amit Arora
@tavishigupta liked the designs of the product and the way itenaries are been presented. Kudos for the launch!!Appreciate the efforts of the whole team. Collaboration with friend is something that will be very helpful. :) Are you planning to focus on some specific countries/region(s) in the start?
Tavishi Gupta
@amit_arora Thanks Amit! No focus as of now, but the majority of our users are based in US, India and Germany!
Gabe Perez
Congrats on the launch @tavishigupta & team! I know there have been tons of AI travel assistance being built but I really like how Tern's approach is as a collaborative travel hub for your plans. It really feels like the evolution of the Google Docs and Notes that friends share with each other. Excited to see the reception and how Tern evolves!
Tavishi Gupta
Thank you @gabe! Maintaining the flexibility of a web editor, while improving recommendations with AI has definitely been a design challenge. Excited to hear everyone's feedback here!

Harshita Girase
Congrats on the launch @tavishigupta!! 🚀 I remember using Tern when I was planning my trip to Lisbon a few months ago and loved the itinerary that was created for me. I probably saved a couple of hours by not doing this myself! Keep it up and good luck!
Tavishi Gupta
@harshitagirase Thanks for the review, looking forward to enhancing your itineraries further with our new look!
Andrew Florial
This product is so helpful. Been waiting for something like this I’ve tried others but this actually works so well
Tavishi Gupta
@andrew_florial glad we can help!!
Helee Makwana
The moment we've all been waiting for is here! We are so excited for you all to try out Tern. It’s been a wonderful journey building it, and we can’t wait to see how you all use and enjoy it.

Congrats on the launch Tavishi!! If there's anyone I think about who's a traveler it's Tavishi and it's so cool how you built a product in a space you understand very well :) I love the UX and how thoughtful you crafted all the features. Can't wait for my next trip when Tern makes it so much easier!
Tavishi Gupta
@mathurahravigulan Thank Mathu! Really appreciate the comment, excited for you to try it for your next trips!
Indy Sanders
This is awesome - significantly better quality recommendations than other apps that don't seem to add much value beyond their base model. I tested it out by asking for recommendations in my city and got a few of my favorite hidden spots! Excited to find more off the track recommendations for my upcoming holiday! Mobile app soon?
Tavishi Gupta
@indy_s Love to hear this! We're a small team with minimal funding, so a mobile app is something we are considering but might be couple months away!
Sumegha Kaushal
Congratulations @tavishigupta . It’s an excellent App, my friends and I already tried it for our Arunachal Pradesh trip, and was really helpful. Keep the good work going!
Tavishi Gupta
@sumegha_kaushal Thank you for checking us out!
Nakul Talwar
I was recommended Tern by a close friend almost a year ago and I must say I was very impressed by the quality of recommendations. I am typically quite skeptical of AI based assistants but this felt like a much more personalized experience that took my peculiarities into consideration. The fact that it is so easy to use and navigate makes it even better. Big kudos to the Tern team and I’m looking forward to seeing what’s next.
Tavishi Gupta
@nax47 Thanks for the support! We hope to keep improving and helping you curate the best trips!
Peyton Gardipee
So exciting for Tern to officially launch!! I've been following you guys for the last year and using the product for my travels along the way. The product has seen an amazing journey as it transformed into the buttery experience that it is today. Can't wait to see how it keeps evolving! Big congrats to @tavishigupta and the team!
Tavishi Gupta
Thank you for your continued support @pwgardipee! So happy we were able to help with your travels! ✈️
Maya Vinay
Congratulations on the launch! I used tern just last month for a family trip and loved the travel personality quiz and the personalized itinerary. We loved everything that tern suggested and had the best time!
Tavishi Gupta
@maya_vinay Love to hear this! Hope to keep fueling your travels!
Sameera Khurana
Love the travel personality quiz! I think it’s so important for the tool to understand my style of travel before giving a customized itinerary for my needs. Also love the map view - I am very visual so that’s how I plan my days - I prefer to club all activities in a particular area. Love the packing list feature, genius! Great job.
Tavishi Gupta
Thank you @sameera_khurana! Happy to hear the personality quiz is a favorite!!
