Welcome! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Here's the one thing to set up first.


Hi, hi!

I'm Megan, and I'm the whole team behind Travel Keeper.

If you just downloaded my app, thank you! There are nearly 1,200 of you now, which is a number I did not expect to be typing this fall. ๐Ÿคฏ

Start here: set up your travelers.

This is the one thing I'd do before anything else, because it pays off on every trip after this one.

Open Family Profiles and add everyone who travels with you. Names, passport expirations, and their frequent flyer and hotel numbers. It takes about five minutes.

On the free tier, everything you enter into the app only lives on your phone and nowhere else. Privacy matters most to me, and this app is built with your family's privacy at top of mind.

After setting up your Family Profiles, the app can flag a passport that's expiring before your trip dates, and you'll never hunt for a kid's airline number mid-booking again.

A little about how this got built.

I planned our family's trips out of a spreadsheet, a Google Doc, a notes app, and about a hundred screenshots in my camera roll for over a decade. The whole operation lived somewhere only I could read.

So I built the thing that gets the whole trip into one place, organizing your flights, hotels, confirmations, costs, and the points and certificates you worked hard to earn.

I have no investors, no team, no venture capital money. It's just me, building after bedtime and in the carpool line. Which means when you send me an idea, I can just go build it.

A good chunk of what's in the app right now came straight out of DMs and email replies, and I even pushed another update just last night.

Everything free today stays free, forever.

That's a promise. The Pro tier only ever adds new tools. It never moves something you already have behind a paywall. Heck, I even add new features to the free tier all the time too. ๐Ÿคช

If you want the fancier stuff, Pro is $39 a year and adds syncing across your devices, planning together with your partner, importing bookings by screenshot, calendar view, spending breakdowns, custom packing templates, and PDF export.

I'm so glad you're here!

Megan

P.S. Hit reply and tell me what you'd wish this app would do. I honestly read every single email and DM.

Good morning! It's been a couple of weeks since I landed in your inbox, and there are now almost 1,500 of you here. ๐Ÿคฏ If you're new, welcome! Three weeks into doing Travel Keeper full time, here's the unglamorous part. Starting a business is a thousand tiny things: Terms and conditions Privacy policies Links that need to go to the right place Automations that need to fire at the right time. And then something breaks at 10pm and you're the only one who can fix it. Luckily I'm pretty tech...

Happy Thursday! The girls started back to school last week and I jumped straight into building, marketing, and blogging to grow this business. But something caught my attention earlier this week. Someone who had downloaded my app, and already used it for a trip, DMed me asking how I made this screenshot I'd posted from our last trip. This one ๐Ÿ‘‡ Yes, that's $20,153 saved on this trip using credit card points and miles. ๐Ÿคฏ I never tallied a single one of those numbers. The app tracked it all...
