Yaatrigan is a travel application that provides comprehensive information about hotels, restaurants, and attractions worldwide. The application aims to address the inconvenience and lack of filtered results when searching for these establishments on Google.

The lack of filtered and personalized results led to the idea of creating an application that offers a convenient and reliable way to access such information.
