Zo-Concierge
Solo builder
An AI-powered hostel concierge app, built solo — backend to UI — in about a week.
Context
- An independent product I built and am exploring commercializing: a hostel concierge experience that lets guests get answers, make requests, and navigate a property through an AI-powered interface, with an admin panel for property operators.
Actions
- Built the full stack solo — Next.js frontend, Supabase backend (auth, database), Gemini-powered AI concierge
- Designed and shipped the guest-facing chat/concierge flow end to end
- Built an admin panel for property operators to manage content and requests
Challenges
- Scoping and shipping a full-stack AI product solo in a compressed timeframe
- Designing an AI concierge flow that stays reliable and on-brand across varied guest questions
Learnings
- Owning a product end to end — not just the frontend — sharpens judgment about what to cut to ship
