AirHelp?

KINDAYou can build the valuable core, but the established product has meaningful operational complexity. Pick one narrow promise for v1.

BUILD FIRST

One specific customer type and one primary use case
A vertical slice that completes the main job without manual workarounds
Visible limits, review steps, and a fallback when an external dependency fails

LEAVE FOR LATER

Broad third-party integrations
High-scale collaboration, syncing, and permissions
Automation that can cause harm without human review

RESEARCHED BUILD PROMPT

Give this to your coding agent.

Build a focused replacement for AirHelp for a traveler planning one trip, based on this public product description: “AirHelp - #1 Air Passenger Rights Experts — AirHelp - #1 Flight Compensation Experts ✅ Add your flight details and find out how much compensation you could be owed in 2 minutes!” Do not copy the original brand, proprietary assets, name, logo, UI, or copy; create an original visual system.

Core workflow
- Recreate only the narrow primary workflow described above, with collect destinations, dates, reservations, notes, and links in an ordered itinerary; show day-by-day views with timezone and missing-data states; allow edits, sharing/export, and offline-readable access; keep recommendations labeled as optional suggestions.
- Keep the product name and source description in a research note in the README, and turn every uncertain behavior into an explicit assumption or user setting rather than inventing a feature.
- Use a small React/TypeScript app with a portable JSON or SQLite data model, clear loading/empty/error states, and adapters around external services. Seed realistic demo data so the complete workflow works without paid credentials.

Scope boundaries
- Out of scope for v1: live booking inventory; price guarantees; travel-agent operations. Do not promise feature parity, proprietary data, or enterprise reliability.

Include a README with setup, environment variables, data model, implementation decisions, privacy behavior, testing instructions, and important limitations.
