Wingman is a flight price tracker. Tell it where and when you want to fly: it keeps searching live fares for those exact dates and notifies your phone or computer when the price drops or a faster flight shows up, with a buy-or-wait verdict on every price. It tracks the cheapest and the fastest flight door to door, round trips, self-transfers and every airport of a city, in 16 languages. Free for one round trip; any other trip is a one-time Trip Pass, €1.99 (your first €0.99).

Could you build this?
Partial The alerting UI and tracking logic are easy to vibe-code, but live fare search needs a licensed flight-data API (such as Amadeus, Duffel, or a metasearch provider), and the buy-or-wait verdict needs reliable price-prediction modeling.
What it would actually take: Build a scheduled backend that polls a flight-offers API for saved routes and dates, stores price history, and sends push or email alerts. The hard parts are getting affordable, compliant access to fare data at scale and building a credible buy-or-wait model from historical prices, which takes data science rather than just app code.
