🌴 Trip planning just got a real glow-up built with Base44 for #GiveItAGlow
Most AI itinerary tools spit out a wall of text that you still have to manually turn into a real plan. I wanted something a traveler could actually use on the ground so I built Ocular Trips.
Tell it your destination and dates, and it generates a full day-by-day itinerary. We’re talking scheduled activities with costs, locations, and timing, mapped out visually.
Check out a live OcularTrips itinerary here:
👉 Ocular Trips | https://ocular-trips.base44.app/
What makes it more than just a generic AI list?
1)📍 Location-aware amenities: Get real, practical suggestions per stop: restrooms, pharmacies, ATMs, or the nearest hospital. It’s the detail you only think about when you actually need it.
2)💰 Live budget breakdown: Accommodation, food, activities, and transport split out automatically (for ex: $550 total for this trip, visualized instantly).
3)🎒 Tailored packing list: Auto-generated based on your destination and the season.
4)🌦️ Seasonal weather snapshot: So you know exactly what’s waiting for you when you land.
5)🗺️ Interactive map: Every stop plotted day-by-day for a seamless on-the-ground experience.
I hit Base44's integration credit cap mid-build, so the AI planning tools are currently on a mandatory vacation until August 1st. Don't worry, they’re just sipping virtual piña coladas the app will be back at full strength soon!😎

Thanks for the reminder, Isabel! The business is Travelmart, a real travel agency run by a friend of mine based in a same city, currently fully offline with no website or public listing. Right now their team builds every itinerary manually using internal software, entirely by...
The location-aware amenities (restrooms, pharmacies, ATMs per stop) are the part most itinerary tools skip, and that's what keeps a plan usable once you're actually on the ground. Since it's tied to a real agency like Travelmart, the interface carries a job the generic AI...
Great point, Pedro! Right now, the itinerary is generated entirely by AI based on the traveler's inputs destination, budget, trip type, group size, interests, and preferences, along with practical details like nearby amenities, weather, maps, packing suggestions, and a budget...

Designed the website for Dovora — an agency that builds businesses for creators, not brand deals. "We don't represent brands, we don't split focus" is basically the whole pitch, and I wanted the site to feel just as uncompromising.
So no polished stock creator-economy visuals. The hero is a wall of real streamer/podcast footage arranged in overlapping diamonds and rounded frames — actual creators, mid-stream, mid-laugh — with a glowing gradient orb behind bold "WE BUILD CREATOR BUSINESSES" type. It reads more like a highlight reel than a landing page, which felt right for an audience that lives on camera.
The second section flips the energy completely — dark, minimal, almost aggressive typography ("BUILT EXCLUSIVELY FOR CREATORS. FULL STOP.") paired with huge chrome-and-neon 3D letterforms spelling out CREATORS. It's loud in a completely different way than the hero, and that contrast is intentional — this isn't a buttoned-up agency deck, it's built for people who make content for a living.
Genuinely fun brief to lean all the way into.
Which color direction feels right for this digital payment app?
While designing a full digital payment app experience, from bills overview to payment confirmation, I explored two different color systems for the entire flow. Same screens, same functionality, just a different accent palette and personality.
Option 1 - Neon Green. Bold, high-energy, and gives a sharp, fintech-forward feel throughout the journey.
Option 2 - Cyan/Blue. Cool, modern, and leans more premium and trustworthy across the whole app.
Would love your honest UX/UI take, which direction feels more trustworthy, engaging, and appropriate for a digital payment app, and why? 👇

What if design refused to stay still?
A playful mix of bold typography, vibrant colors, and unexpected movement, created to give every frame its own personality.
No static thinking. Just ideas in motion.
