Flight search API competing with Amadeus and Duffel on simplicity and pricing.

  • No rate limits and 1,000 free requests available for initial testing.
Weaknesses
  • Crowded market with established players like Duffel and Amadeus already.
  • Unclear data source coverage compared to major GDS providers and aggregators.

Post Description

I was frustrated with existing APIs for searching flight prices, so I built this. It's a simple API to search for flights and get their prices. It can also return booking links.

Generous free tier (happy to give more credits, lmk) + super low pricing. Lmk any thoughts or improvement ideas :)

Sira,an AI native flight booking experience

Sira promises a tidy chat-first flow that shows published fares as the final price and even offers 24-hour holds — that no-upsell pitch is refreshing. If the backend truly normalizes GDS/ATPCO data into instant conversational responses, that’s a meaningful engineering feat. Still, the product faces brutal competition from incumbents and the landing page leaves open questions about baggage/seat handling, refunds, and real-time availability.

Direct-img.link for AI when you want IMG in Markdown

It's a URL-first image proxy that turns plus-separated queries into cached image endpoints you can drop straight into Markdown or LLM output — no API keys or uploads needed. The README shows thoughtful choices (query normalization, max-length rules, Cloudflare WAF and rate limits) but the idea is primarily a convenience: useful for demos and prompt engineering, questionable for production given image provenance, copyright and relevance concerns.
