Fast forward to now, Seattle Startup Weekend is coming up this weekend and we want to pitch this location based scheduling app where given user's calendar info and their location, the app will recommend you time slots/locations to meet. We are going to use the app's backend for scheduling Truffle dates anyhow but I also wanted to see if there is market outside our above use case.
Will you use it for planning a dinner with your friends, so you import your calendar, work location/home location and the app will recommend you the time slots as well as the restaurants in the neighborhoods that is convenient of all your friends. We can also integrate this with Open table so that you can reserve a table right, even further we can hook up Uber, Zipcar to automatically reserve a car for you on the day of dining. So basically no need to email bunch of friends back and forth about the place/time, this app will give you enough data to make a decision.
For all the above things, the biggest question is there a need of a such a personal assistant and on top of that, are people willing to share their calendars and location info?
For every feedback, I'll give you guys a cute insight about dating scene in Seattle :)
