Local lifestyle

The largest of the three and the closest to the core user. Three scenarios, thirty creators each, all pointed at the same behaviour: you had no plan, you described a mood instead of a keyword, and you ended up somewhere good.

The mandate

Do not demo the app. Have the evening. Wanderboat should turn up the way it would if you genuinely used it, mid-scroll, mid-argument about where to eat, and then the video should get to the place and stay there. You are carrying Message 1 and Message 2. Message 3 is fair game if your request happens to stack conditions, and Message 4 if you drive a Tesla.

Aesthetic foodie spots & hidden eats

The 44% of Reddit's hidden-gem demand that turns out to be restaurants, bars, coffee and dessert. Lead with how the place looks. A standard map would never have surfaced it, and you could tell it was right before you went.

Message 2 first, then 1
A quiet restaurant dining room, marble tables and a wall of framed prints under low lamplight.

Date night inspo

The strongest format for decision paralysis, because with two people the paralysis is audible. No plan, the argument about where to go, the request typed out loud, then the room.

Message 1 and 2
An audience seated close together at a small evening event inside a bookshop, warm lamplight.

Family-friendly weekend outings

Things to do with kids. Requests here pile up conditions on their own: kid-friendly, stroller-friendly, somewhere the adults can also eat. That makes it the one lifestyle scenario where the hyper-specific message lands without anybody forcing it.

What aesthetic means here
A hand holding a phone with the Wanderboat app open, on a marble bar counter in front of blue bar stools.
Four ceramic tasting spoons on a wooden board, each with a different garnished bite.
Two cocktails on a counter in front of a backlit shelf of bottles at night.
A brunch spread on a wooden table: eggs, pancakes, a salad bowl and coffee.

What the video has to contain
  1. 01You, in the actual moment of not knowing where to go. Say it in your own words.
  2. 02The app on screen, doing the work. Screen recording is fine. Hold the visual cards long enough that a viewer can read one.
  3. 03The request in plain language rather than keywords. Let the phrasing stay as messy as it really is.
  4. 04The place itself. Get there, film it, react to it.
  5. 05A verdict. Without it, the recommendation is just an address.
Hooks to start from
  • Zero weekend plans and I'm done doomscrolling.
  • I have the mood. I do not have the place.
  • Forty minutes of scrolling and we went to the same bar as last time.
  • Standard maps gave me four stars and no soul.
  • I stopped searching for places and started describing the vibe.
Do
  • Talk to the app the way you text a friend. Full sentences, specific mood, no guessing at keywords.
  • Show the visual card before the visit, so the payoff is that the room matched.
  • Keep it native to your channel. Your normal opening, your normal edit, your normal voice.
Do not
  • No tour of the interface. Nobody watches a settings screen.
  • No script that sounds written. If you would not say it out loud, cut it.
  • Do not end on the app. End on the place.
