Roamate™ Travel Platform Development by Empiric Infotech LLP

Roamate™ is a next-generation travel platform designed specifically for solo travelers who want freedom without friction. Unlike traditional travel or “find a buddy” apps, Roamate matches travelers by compatibility, not availability — enabling users to split costs, plan smarter, and travel safely while still roaming solo on their own terms.

The platform eliminates the long-standing “Solo Tax™” - the extra cost, inconvenience, and isolation solo travelers face by creating a new category of travel: solo but shared.

Solo travelers love independence, but the industry is built for pairs. This creates persistent pain points:

Paying double for rooms and experiences

Delaying trips due to unreliable friends

Feeling unsafe or unseen while traveling alone

Planning everything solo with no support

Wanting connection without sacrificing freedom

Existing solutions either force companionship or ignore safety and compatibility. There was no intelligent, traveler-first system designed for how people actually roam.

Roamate™ was built as a compatibility-driven travel ecosystem that gives solo travelers more control, lower costs, and safer connections without forcing commitment or dependency.

Users begin with a scenario-based Vibe Check Quiz that identifies their travel style (e.g., Sunrise Chaser, Type A, Go-with-the-Flow). Matches are based on how users travel, not when they’re available reducing friction and mismatches.

Users choose how they want to connect:

Split accommodation costs while roaming independently

Travel together as full trip partners

Meet compatible roamers at the destination

The experience adapts to the traveler not the other way around.

A smart cost-splitting calculator shows potential savings before committing, helping users make informed decisions and avoid overpaying.

Roamate includes planning features that reduce solo effort:

RoamList – Post or join trips users actually want

RoamBoard – Community-driven destination discussions

My RoamPlanner – Save recommendations, ideas, and inspiration

Everything lives in one streamlined experience.

Optional third-party background checks are available (country-dependent). Verification is handled securely, with Roamate receiving only pass/fail confirmation. This adds a layer of trust without compromising privacy or autonomy.

Solo but Shared – Freedom and connection coexist

Matched, Not Random – Compatibility over coincidence

Split, Never Doubled – Fair travel costs at last

Roamate doesn’t replace solo travel it enhances it.

Roamate was founded by a solo traveler who experienced firsthand how unfair and isolating solo travel can be. The platform was built from lived experience, prioritizing safety, dignity, and independence over gimmicks or forced socialization.
