@pointscasa is live. for everyone.
PointsCasa retweeted
took us ~9.5 months to hit 10k users at @pointscasa.
then roughly half that time to hit 20k.
we're working on the next thing now. it's in the same world but much bigger, and honestly a little scary.
stay tuned, as always 🙏

long live the king 🤴
meet the points king.
he has more points than he knows what to do with. unfortunately, that's the problem.
a 2-min story on why pointscasa exists - probably my favourite video we've made.
if you're into points & miles, this one's for you.

we couldn't afford to build @pointscasa out of our own savings and nobody was going to fund us either.
so we got an idea. we opened 100 lifetime spots.
we were like, “eh, nobody’s going to buy this.” so let’s price it at ₹5k.
well, a couple weeks ago, we sold spot 99. for close to ₹50k.
and now only one remains.
we kept raising the price as the product became more real.
and the earliest members weren’t buying a finished product. they were mostly trusting two random dudes building something cool.
interestingly, one of those spots belongs to a bollywood director.
another to someone who puts crores on their credit cards every month.
i’ve called @ayanlogs in the middle of the night after some of these sales, genuinely in disbelief.
because these people were trusting us while we were still finding our own footing.
that trust gave us the room to build. so thank you, to each of you.
and now comes phase 2.
more conviction. more firepower.
we’re not just trying to build a cool product anymore.
we’re going to war in an industry dominated by the same giants for decades.
time to lock in :)

when we launched @pointscasa last september, our landing page was a janky demo video and a problem statement.
that problem statement converted visitors to users at 10%+. but we knew we needed to look more credible.
every month i'd tell @ayanlogs "i need to sit and redo the landing page", and then go work on 10 other things instead.
this month we finally sat down and did it. have a look:

a year ago @pointscasa was a landing page and a waitlist.
1,500 people joined in the first 72 hours.
today: 15,000+ users, 1.2+ billion points & miles tracked, 2,000+ award searches every week.
here's everything we've built since then 👇

We’ve been building something for hotel points.
What's your biggest pain point with hotel redemptions?

Always thought IndiGo BluChips wasn't a great programme until I booked my Vietnam return.
Worked out to roughly ₹1.15 per BluChip for 2 passengers, even after accounting for the higher taxes.
Sharing the booking screenshots along with a small BluChips summary chart (both international and domestic) in case it's useful for anyone looking at redemptions.

I read @paulg essays back when my old boss / mentor told me to. he said they're kind of the gospel of the startup world.
and some of the essays truly became the fundamentals behind how I think about building a startup.
one concept that truly stuck with me: doing things that don't scale.
and here's a few things we do at @pointscasa that clearly don't scale:
1. a "whatsapp us" button on the site.
anyone can dm us directly, and people do. bugs, improvements, feedback. one of the few things i genuinely love receiving.
better than any support crm i've used.
2. a community of people who paid.
it's actually three groups: 📢 announcements, 🎙️feedback, and ☕ charcha (members chatting among themselves).
most of our focus goes to the feedback one. live QA, bug fixing, anything that turns up there we prioritise. they paid, so we want their experience to be impeccable.
3. free demos.
any new user who signs up can book a call with @ayanlogs and I directly and figure out how to actually use the product.
a lot of these folks we did calls with ended up becoming lifetime members once they realised what we're trying to build. these are our earliest investors. they trusted us before any institutional one did.

"how many points do people even have in India"
our tiny startup is not even a year old.
we're already tracking 1B+ points across credit cards and loyalty programs.

✨✨ tiny drop 005 - passkeys
we just launched one touch sign-in.
logging into @pointscasa meant waiting for an email code every time. it worked, but we realised there's a much faster way. no switching apps, just a single tap.
so now you can sign in with your fingerprint or face:
- one tap, nothing to type, nothing to wait for
- works across your devices (synced by Apple / Google)
- your fingerprint never leaves your device
- email codes still work, always
you'll get a small one-time prompt on your next login. takes less than 5 seconds to set up :)
nobody asked for this, i just got tired of copying otps lol

wanted to post when @pointscasa hit 10k users.
got caught up building.
we crossed 11k today!
still feels like day 1.
lots to fix in how we plan trips around points, cash, dates, and availability.
just getting started
ps: something big coming. as big as our first launch. :)

✨✨ tiny drop 003 - docs
we just launched PointsCasa Docs.
PointsCasa has been working well for people who had some understanding of how points and miles work.
But we needed to do a better job helping everyone else get there.
So we wrote a simple guide for:
- how award flights work
- how credit card points turn into bookings
- how to read flight results
- how to use PointsCasa end-to-end (balances, transfers, billing, Command Centre, and more)
There’s also an AI chat inside, so you can ask questions directly. :)
