Seven years to decide where to live: spreadsheets, Notion tables, tabs never closed. Every "best places" list gave me the same thirty cities, none an answer to my life. Traveling taught me each place brings out a different version of you. So I built Arcadia: thirty questions, then it compares 3,582 places worldwide, mostly small towns and islands no list ever names. The first 50 people unlock their results free with code PH. Would love to hear what you think, and where it sends you.

Could you build this?
Partial While the 30-question quiz UI and scoring engine are trivial to vibe-code, the core value lies in a proprietary, manually vetted dataset of 3,500+ global locations with granular lifestyle metrics.
What it would actually take: The system requires a React/Next.js frontend with Stripe/crypto payment integration, a vector or multi-attribute matching database (PostgreSQL with weighted scoring), and extensive proprietary data collection covering cost of living, climate stats, visa regimes, and subjective quality of life indicators for thousands of non-standard global locations.
