My co-founder and I actually met at a hackathon a few years ago and worked on an early version of the site. It's very exciting to finally launch!

My co-founder Andrew is a lawyer-turned-developer. I'm a former tech journalist (Laptop Mag, The Verge).

Who did the design? Also, a little usability tip: When a user clicks on "Price" to sort, I think most users expect to see the lowest price first. You have it sorted by highest price first. I would reverse that.

Also, I noticed the lowest price hotels often don't have a great score (around 60-70). Do you only list hotels that hit a certain score threshold (meaning, as a user, can I trust that no matter what hotel shows up in your listings, it means I can expect a good stay?) - or do I still need to be wary of the scores and avoid ones with low points?

Our designer was someone that my co-founder had worked with before. And thanks for the tip about price sorting.

We don't list any hotels with a score lower than 60, which means every hotel is a quality hotel.
