Thanks @mwseibel for the hunt! Hello Product Hunt! An OG lurker here! I'm the co-founder and CTO of Roame. We've worked very hard during the first month of our Y Combinator journey and we're just so excited to share it with you! I started my points journey in January 2023, but once @tim_qin taught me the magic and the economics behind it, I've been beyond fascinated by this $100 billion+ hidden asset class. Hit me up with your craziest feature requests and suggestions. We so very much look forward to delighting you! - Zi

Hi Product Hunt! Zi and I are avid points and miles geeks. We started building Roame half a year ago because we spent way too much time trying to book the 70K points award flight for first class from the U.S. to Tokyo. We ended up spending ~30 hours each booking those first class flights on Japan Airlines. We wanted to simplify the search process and help others book their dream flights in first or business class. Roame is free and searches up to 12 airline loyalty programs for flight redemptions with the real-time results delivered in seconds. We support searching up to 365 days in advance and for any fare class with sorting and filtering. We currently search for points redemption availability across these airline programs and their partners airlines (180+): 1. AeroMexico Club Premier 2. Air Canada Aeroplan 3. Air France / KLM Flying Blue 4. Alaska Mileage Plan 5. American Airlines AAdvantage 6. Avianca Lifemiles 7. Delta SkyMiles 8. Emirates Skywards 9. Iberia Plus 10. Jetblue TrueBlue 11. United Airlines MileagePlus 12. Virgin Australia Velocity Flyer If you like using our free award search engine, you can support us by signing up for a Friends of Roame subscription. As a thank you, Friends of Roame members gain access to additional filters and beta testing access to our new product, SkyView. SkyView is a more advanced search that would let you search for award flights from multiple origin airports and to multiple destination airports across multiple dates. For example, you can search California to Europe for 12/31/2023 +/- 3 days. One thing to note is that the results are cached for up to 24-48 hours. Zi and I are here and happy to answer any of your questions about Roame, award travel, or anything else you would like to know! We would love your feedback on Roame. ✈️ https://roame.travel

Love this!! Finding flight deals used to be such a tedious and time-consuming task! This makes it super easy

Hey , this is super cool. I had been doing extensive research on this and was thinking of changing my cards just to get the maximum benefit out of points. The only thing that was holding me back was worry of credit score. This is a super cool solution to get around that :D

Congratulations! I have been using Roame for a while now and super impressed with the service y’all provide. Keep up the good work!

Well done on the launch of your remarkable new product! It's a testament to your creativity and expertise. Here's to a thriving business and countless happy customers! 🚀🎉

Saw you in the YC newsletter and had subscribed then. Just became a paying member. Excited to see where you go from here @zliuilz and @tim_qin 🙌 Just trying out the filters for SkyView and it's fun to play with. Better results with specific destinations compared to NYC > Europe. Would love to give more feedback on the product and perhaps get a guide on how y'all use the filters to search effectively. Not sure I understand some of the concepts – points (is this a min or a max filter?) and premium % (not sure what this means – should it be low or high?) in particular. Happy to chat more in DMs or email (https://twitter.com/kunalslab)

As an aviation enthusiast, this is deefinitely something I'm going to try out. Thanks and good luck with the launch!

Signed up this morning and loving this site already! Could you guys add more Capital One partners like Qantas, Cathay, Avianca, etc.? I have the Venture X card. Thank you for creating this!

Great job @tim_qin & @zliuilz Are you thinking of expanding into hotel awards as well?

Also part of the points community! It’s great to see more tools developed for us. What are your plans for new features?

Thank you for making Roame accessible for everyone. Your commitment to keeping it free is highly appreciated!
