Traveling should be about experiences, not logistics — yet keeping family and friends updated often means juggling multiple apps where your data is fed to algorithms and advertisers.
Frequent traveler Teemu Kolehmainen recognized this problem firsthand. TripTrix isn’t a service where one can purchase tickets; rather, TripTrix’s role begins after the bookings are made, allowing the business or premium traveler the luxury of not having to worry about oversharing and security. TripTrix provides a secure, private space to share locations, automated status updates, and on-the-go experiences with only the people you choose.
“Travel and social media apps collect massive amounts of personal data, but frequent travelers are getting privacy-conscious and want control over who sees their travel details,” Teemu Kolehmainen, Founder of TripTrix, said. “We are building the first secure and encrypted platform specifically for sharing travel experiences with family and close friends – real-time photos, locations, and updates in one private place. It’s like having a secure and flexible family travel channel that nobody else can access.”
“As a new player in the travel tech industry, TripTrix is excited to join Travel Tech’s Start-Up Member Program so the team can be connected to the industry in a more formal manner and have greater representation of TripTrix,” said Kolehmainen.
