'TBIRD' is a platform that enables users to name their price when it comes to transportation, accommodation and even tours to travel for less than it would cost the traditional way. Working like a social network app, 'TBIRD' enables travelers to set up profiles and detail the kind of experience they're looking for along with the price point that works for their budget. Other users can then offer them the ability to negotiate with them to fulfill the request and get paid.
The 'TBIRD' platform works as a way to help consumers travel for less without having to scour websites and message boards in order to find the best deal. As travel services like Airbnb continue to disrupt the market, we'll likely continue to see more custom tailored solutions coming about.
