Every man remakes himself, like a master sculptor chisels away at the marble of his own character. This is our remake.

At the beginning, I envisioned Autohaven to be a social network for car conversations, very niche. And so I built our car feed, basic as it is, to test the waters.

It works, but it's not so great without a community. A social network is as good as its people/users. So for us to have a great social network, we need people on it.

So I've been chiseling away at various solutions to this nagging problem, and I am happy to report that I think I have found a possible answer to that million-dollar question.

The Bank:
Yes, I think the bank is the answer. The bank of car intelligence, from the manufacturer, everyone in between, to the final car owner and user of the car.

To illustrate, have a look at one piece that I recently added to the bank on the screenshot above.

It shows a nimble yet probably the most important piece of information you need when making the decision to buy a car - the features and specs you will get in return for your hard-earned money.

And this is just one piece of the cake, a lot goes into it, as I discovered.

And so I am putting together massive data bank of everything cars, which perfectly fits into the vision I had for Autohaven when I started.

Also, I am not dumping in there everything I find on the interwebs, I am critically looking for that needle in the haystack, to present to you the most important bits that you need to know.

The Rack:
Another probably most important piece to this is the rack, the thing that organizes all this information.

I realize that anything can be found on the web, but the difference in the quality of delivery can be as little as how that information is organized and presented to you. It matters a lot. Which is why we are seeing AI eating Google's cake live.

So I have put some good thoughts and efforts into how this should be organized and presented to you. Including a smart way to search and find what you're looking for!

The Date:
When is this coming live? Well, some of it is already available on autohaven.io, on the homepage. But that's like only 1/4 of it. I am testing out the remaining 3/4 and it should be landing on Autohaven next week, God-willing!

So watch out, keep a tab, notify a friend.

I do honestly think we are onto something here, and I hope you and I do get something out of it, and all of us win!

Otherwise what do you think of the bank? Is it a good answer to this problem? Let me know in the comments/replies.

As always, thanks a lot for your support, much love and appreciation 🫶
