NestioBnb
An Airbnb-style rental site where the map does most of the work. Listings filter in real time as you move around, and you book straight from the listing page. Hosts manage their properties and the requests coming in, guests keep a shortlist of favorites, and a chatbot built on the OpenAI API suggests places to stay and things to do from a plain description of what you are after. Images are stored on AWS S3.
