Where the travel guides go next: more destinations, live exchange rates, and richer planning tools.
Guides & content

- doneDay-by-day itinerary timelines; OpenStreetMap maps where stops have coordinates
- doneVisible freshness on every guide: “Prices verified” chip plus “Last updated” build date
- plannedMore destinations with hand-verified prices
- plannedCoordinates for every itinerary stop so every guide gets a map

Known defectsQA, Aug 2026
- fixingCurrency bugs: homepage/best-time show imported destinations as "$0–$1/day" (USD bands divided by mid-band again); budget calculator & trip planner print local-currency bands (GEL/ALL) with a "$" sign instead of converting
Gap backlogResearched Aug 2026 vs Nomadic Matt, Nomad List, Lonely Planet, Reddit (r/digitalnomad, r/solotravel, r/travel); expanded Aug 2026 with web + social gap scan (Wander-Lush, r/Sakartvelo, Georgia e-visa sources)
- P1contentSPer-city eSIM/connectivity block in every guide (constant Airalo-vs-Holafly threads; none of our guides cover data)
- P1contentMSafety & scam notes per destination (top recurring r/solotravel ask)
- P1contentMVisa & entry table per guide with last-checked dates ("rules just changed" threads on r/digitalnomad)
- P1toolMOffline itinerary export (printable HTML/PDF or GPX alongside the Leaflet map)
- P2toolMCity comparison view reusing existing dated cost tables (Nomad List’s core value prop)
- P2toolSMulti-currency budget calculator with dated FX snapshot
- P2contentMSeasonal price index (high/shoulder/low deltas) cross-linked to the month picker
- P2siteSSurface "last verified + what changed" freshness stamp more prominently (anti-stale-content trust play)
- P3toolMPacking list generator tied to destination + month
- P3contentSFirst-timer logistics blocks (airport→city, transit cards, tipping) as guide FAQs
- P3siteSMonthly email digest beyond RSS
- P3toolLUser-submitted price reports (deferred until traffic justifies spam handling)
- P1contentMTbilisi neighborhood guide — where to stay by budget/vibe with map (Sololaki, Vera, Chugureti, Fabrika area); competitors’ top-performing Tbilisi page and we cover none of it
- P1contentMGeorgia country itinerary hub (1–4 weeks without a car: Tbilisi→Kazbegi→Kakheti etc.); high-traffic format on Wander-Lush et al that we lack entirely
- P1contentS“Remotely from Georgia” digital-nomad visa explainer per guide — 1-year remote-work permit, requirements + last-checked date (active r/digitalnomad topic; e-visa pages updated July 2026)
- P2contentSTbilisi food & drink budget guide — khinkali/khachapuri price-per-plate table wired to the cost dataset (every competitor has one; ours is all numbers, no plates)
- P2contentMSeasonal reality blocks: winter cold/air-quality and summer heat in Tbilisi (recurring r/Sakartvelo relocation questions) cross-linked to the best-time tool
- P1contentSDay-trips hub from Tbilisi (Kazbegi, Mtskheta, Davit Gareja, Uplistsikhe) with transport logistics + dated costs; every major competitor covers it, we don’t
- P2contentS“What people actually spend per month” Q&A page pairing real Reddit reports with our dataset bands (asked repeatedly on r/digitalnomad)
- P2contentMPrice-over-time changelog per destination: public log of price/visa-rule changes (nearly unique; matches the site’s iteration identity)
- P3contentSPractical apps & cards guide (Bolt, TBC, metro card, marshrutka) — explicitly requested by newcomers, thinly covered by blogs
- P3contentSSulfur baths comparison: public vs private rooms, prices, etiquette (most coverage is single-venue reviews, not a price comparison)
