Details

The main objective of this project is to develop a recommendation algorithm that generates personalized, real-time itineraries for users to explore the city through the Hidden Gemz platform. This algorithm will leverage user preferences and an existing database of businesses to create a seamless "Choose Your Own Adventure" style experience.


Learners will be solving the problem of providing personalized, dynamic city exploration recommendations that adapt in real-time based on user preferences, feedback and the current status of participating businesses. Users often find it challenging to plan and discover local experiences that match their interests and constraints. The goal is to remove this friction and offer an engaging, stress-free way to explore the city.

Deliverables

Expected Outcomes

  • A functional recommendation algorithm capable of generating personalized, real-time itineraries.
  • Improved user satisfaction through tailored city exploration experiences.
  • A scalable solution that can be adapted to new cities as Hidden Gemz expands.


Resulting in Enhanced business engagement and increased foot traffic to local businesses.



Mentorship

Learners will work directly with our tech team through weekly meetings, gaining hands-on guidance and feedback. The Hidden Gemz team will provide comprehensive support, including access to our extensive databases and expert mentors specializing in AI/ML and scalable systems. With dedicated staff time and robust support systems, learners will have the resources they need to ensure successful project completion.

Hidden Gemz is a city-exploration platform that offers bookable year-round, self-guided experiences designed for friends, couples, and newcomers to explore multiple local spots in a single day. Our experiences include a meal, an activity, and a dessert, all covered by a single ticket.

This approach not only promotes social interaction and city exploration but also drives revenue to local businesses. Each participating business receives a portion of the ticket sales directly when someone visits with a ticket. Hidden Gemz actively markets these bookable experiences to attract new customers, enhancing the visibility and appeal of local spots.

In September 2024, we will being our mobile app development.
