04/09 AMA Recap & Tech Update

🚀 Development Progress & App Overhaul

We’ve made significant progress over the past week as we move toward the next stage of scaling DORA AI:

Complete App Overhaul on Track: Our design and engineering teams are finalizing the new user journey. This includes:
- A simplified trip planner experience.
- Intuitive input collection for destination, dates, preferences, and budget.
- A reworked interface that’s faster, cleaner, and easier to navigate across both iOS and Android.
Infrastructure Upgrades: We’re continuing to scale the backend to support future integrations, including new regional marketplaces and partner APIs.
5x Faster AI Response Time: With our migration to Claude 3.5 Sonnet and a restructured data prioritization system, DORA AI is now significantly faster and more accurate in itinerary building and travel recommendations.
New Ranking Algorithm in Progress: A lower-rank adaptation model is being developed to better match activity suggestions to personal preferences, budgets, and group dynamics.

🧠 Token Utility & Staking Exploration

Utility First: We're doubling down on making $DORA a true utility token by prioritizing the rollout of discounted bookings and premium access features. Expect a full loyalty tier system integrated into the app soon.
Staking Under Consideration: We’re currently exploring staking as an additional utility layer for token holders. We're closely following the developments of the virtuals ecosystem to ensure our approach remains compatible and secure. Nothing will be rushed—legal compliance and sustainable design are key.

📣 Community & Growth

Newsletter Launch Incoming: Stay up to date with DORA AI’s roadmap, releases, travel hacks, and community perks—our official newsletter is launching soon!
Team Expansion: We’re growing fast! More support on social media, community growth, and content creation will allow us to engage even better with users across platforms.
Global Expansion Discussions: Ongoing conversations are underway to integrate DORA AI into new regional marketplaces, especially across Southeast Asia and Latin America. Our goal: bring smart travel planning to every corner of the world.
