ExpireBuddy

ExpireBuddy is a privacy-first mobile app that prevents family travel disasters by tracking passport, license, and document expiration dates with intelligent reminders that go far beyond basic calendar alerts. THE PROBLEM: Families discover expired passports at airport check-in, forcing them to cancel expensive vacations. Others arrive at the airport only to learn their passports don't meet destination-specific validity requirements. These preventable disasters cost families thousands of dollars in lost vacation costs, last-minute rebooking fees, and ruined travel plans. The traditional solution—calendar reminders—fails because it only tells you "when" to renew. It doesn't tell you WHO in your family needs renewal, WHAT the destination requirements are, WHERE to renew, or HOW long processing takes. OUR SOLUTION: ExpireBuddy tracks expiration dates for passports, driver's licenses, TSA PreCheck, vehicle registrations, and more—for your entire family in one place. Our smart document scanner extracts dates without ever storing sensitive information, giving you complete peace of mind with privacy-first architecture. KEY FEATURES: - Family Dashboard: Track documents for up to 6 family members with travel readiness scores - Smart Alerts: Notifications based on your travel plans and renewal deadlines - Travel Readiness: Check if your family's documents are valid for upcoming trips - Privacy-First: Only stores expiration dates, never full documents or sensitive personal data—GDPR compliant from day one - Document Scanner: Scan your documents to quickly add expiration dates and document details -- save images encrypted on your device only (never sent to the cloud) - Emergency Preparedness: Quick access to renewal procedures and requirements when you need them WHY FAMILIES CHOOSE EXPIREBUDDY: Calendar reminders say "renew passport today." ExpireBuddy tells you that your child's passport expires in 45 days, processing takes 6-8 weeks, and you have a family trip planned in 60 days—so you need to renew NOW.
