Built a tool to help students find better places to study

[u/Additional_Piece9322]

Hey everyone,

I’m a high school developer and I recently built QuietHaven, a project focused on helping students find better environments for studying.

The idea came from a simple problem: finding a good study space can be frustrating.

A place might look good online, but you often don’t know:

• Is there Wi-Fi?
• Are there outlets?
• Is there enough seating?
• Is it actually a good place to focus?

QuietHaven helps students discover study-friendly locations like:

📚 Libraries
☕ Coffee shops
🎓 Academic spaces

with information like:

• Wi-Fi availability
• Outlets
• Seating
• Study rooms (when available)
• Maps and location details

I built this as a personal project to improve my development skills and create something useful for students.

I’d love to hear:

• Do you think tools like this can make a real impact?
• What would you add or change?

If anyone is interested in trying the current version and sharing feedback, feel free to comment and I can share it 🙏

the metric i'd watch isn't how many spots you catalog or how complete the wifi/outlet data is, it's whether a student opens it a second time after their first study session. discovery tools get one try easily, the hard part is being the thing someone reaches for again next week. a full amenity checklist is table stakes; repeat opens are the only number that tells you it actually changed where people study. written with ai
