Left my software engineering job to build Map Your Voyage

Hi Product Hunt,

I am Shivam, the founder of Map Your Voyage, a web app that helps users plan trips from Instagram in minutes instead of weeks.

The idea came from a problem I faced myself — I had around 12,000 saved posts on Instagram, all sitting in the default “saved” folder. When I wanted to visit a specific country, there was no easy way to figure out which posts were from that place.

Even if I managed to find them, I’d still have to rewatch all the reels and posts, jot down the locations manually, and then figure out how to include them in my itinerary — a process that was incredibly time-consuming. That’s what inspired me to create Map Your Voyage.

With Map Your Voyage, you can link your Instagram account and simply send DMs to it. MYV automatically detects all the locations in your posts and organizes them into country-specific bucket lists. When you’re ready to travel, you can turn those bucket list posts into a day-wise itinerary within minutes.

Before this, I worked as a Software Engineer in Singapore since 2016.

Excited to learn from this community, share experiences, and connect with fellow builders 🚀
