Travelers connecting - Hero background
Meet Before You Move

Don't travel with
strangers.

Talk first. Make the plan. Agree on the budget. Then go — with people you already know.

Sathimate is not a booking site. You do not buy tickets here, you find travel companions. Whether it is Manali or Rishikesh, the group knows each other weeks before departure.

Groups first

Choose your companions before the trip, not during it

No cold DMs

Conversations happen inside the group, in the open

Three rules here

If any of these break, report it. We act.

Trust

Conversations happen inside the group, in the open. No private DMs until both sides agree.

Clarity

Before you leave you will know who is coming, what it costs, and where you are staying.

Respect

Harassment does not get a warning. The account is closed.

Where we are

I am a B.Tech student. The idea came from a trip that fell apart while we were still planning it — everyone was in different WhatsApp groups, nobody knew who was actually coming, what the budget was, or who was sharing a room with whom.

Every travel app sells tickets. None of them help you find the people. So I built Sathimate.

This is very early. If you are one of the first hundred people trying it — tell me straight what feels broken. I read every message myself.
