Our story

How we started

It all began with an idea Kent had for a directory, but the spark ignited when Ae reached out to collaborate on a booking system for Pickleball. Seeing the potential, they brought in Cherish, who was already envisioning a similar system.

During our first meeting, we planned to scale beyond sports into a comprehensive business directory. However, a pivot arrived when we discovered a competitor offering a completely free platform.

While that project stalled, the vision didn't. Kent realized the true need was a dedicated home for local businesses. We regrouped and decided to join Alisa in the team, combining our strengths to build what we have today: a trusted guide for every island.
