Inspiration

Travel disruptions—flight cancellations, extreme weather, or strikes—leave millions stranded every year. Many of us have experienced the nightmare: sleeping on airport floors, scrambling for overpriced hotels, or waiting in endless queues. We wanted to build a guardian angel for travelers, blending AI and travel APIs to provide instant rescue when things go wrong.

What it does

LiveRescue is an AI-powered travel disruption shield that:

• Predicts risks of flight delays or cancellations using live flight and weather data.
  
• Auto-books rescue hotels via Nuitee LiteAPI when disruptions occur.
  
• Delivers instant vouchers & QR codes for seamless check-in.
  
• Guides travelers with a calming AI Copilot that explains the situation and suggests safe alternatives.
  
• Supports partners (airlines, insurers, hotels) by reducing costs and filling last-minute vacancies.

How we built it

• Frontend: Next.js + TailwindCSS, styled with neumorphism UI for soft, reassuring visuals.
  
• Backend: Firebase Functions + Firestore for booking flows, notifications, and disruption detection.
  
• APIs:
  
  • Nuitee LiteAPI for hotel availability & booking.
    
  • Flight & weather APIs for disruption prediction.
    
• AI Layer:
  
  • Predictive model for travel risks.
    
  • Hotel recommender (comfort + proximity).
    
  • Copilot chatbot for real-time guidance.
    
• Notifications: Firebase Cloud Messaging + email confirmations with QR codes.

Challenges we ran into

• Integrating multiple APIs quickly within hackathon deadlines.
  
• Designing an interface that reduces stress instead of adding to it.
  
• Balancing a lightweight MVP with enough AI intelligence to feel real and useful.
  

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Building a working end-to-end prototype: from flight risk detection → hotel booking → QR voucher.
  
• Delivering a unique neumorphic design that feels soft, friendly, and human in stressful travel situations.
  
• Proving that AI + LiteAPI can create instant rescue for millions of travelers.

What we learned

• The power of combining AI prediction with real-world APIs.
  
• How calm design (neumorphism) changes user experience in moments of crisis.
  
• Cloud tools like Firebase enable rapid prototyping for complex ideas.
  
• Travel tech innovation is not just convenience—it’s about human safety and dignity.

What’s next for LiveRescue

• Expanding coverage with more global airlines & weather feeds.
  
• Partnering with airlines, insurers, and governments for official integrations.
  
• Adding offline support so stranded travelers can access vouchers without internet.
  
• Scaling AI to handle all travel disruptions—from flights to ferries and trains.
