A very innovative idea. I like the idea of being able to assemble - and then disassemble - the room; a more environmentally sound take on development because it would ideally leave behind a much smaller footprint - or none at all.
Thanks amitjanco! Yes, indeed the intention behind the small footprint is to reduce the chances of "hurting" the environment.
I love this idea--kind of like AirBnB for the wild. Seems alternatively it could be a solution for homeless or third world poverty stricken people that have no home otherwise--but would need significant backing/funding I'm sure. Either way best of luck!
Thanks Marc! This can be an alternative to AirBnB, instead of stay in "Stranger's home, they can enjoy a private room.
Hi Andianggoro! I also like the idea. Could you maybe help us understand a bit more for who these mobile places would be for, who's the target group? :)

Thanks Olof! I think the main target will be the travellers. Backpackers might want to try it if the price is attractive, but most likely "backpacker wannabe" will be more interested. Other than that, perhaps surfer and researcher can be potential target user for longer stay.
I see, thanks for explaining. Maybe you want to include that in your description?
Btw, do you know if there's anything similar like this out there already?
/Olof
Ok sure. Yes, i found a couples similar idea out there physically, but maybe we can approach it in different way, instead of only sell the service, we are establishing hotel franchise. Not sure some have done this also, but looking at the amount of unusable potential land, hopefully land owner will get attracted. They can make use of their "sleeping land", in a cheap and easy way while they are waiting to build a "real hotel".
Indeed, smart idea! I guess the issue with water supplies and toilet etc comes later but I'm curious to know how that would work! :)
Thanks Benjokoren! I'm open to the possibility of working together :)
It is a very interesting idea! I love the concept and it is a bit funny that you would to me (in a positive way) that you would automatize all the check-in and check-out process because I've managed a co-living for foreigners for 5 years running mostly on AirBnB and this would have been awesome that we could make a system like this but instead we had so much trouble with check-in late at night at impossible hours.... But to talk about your product : I think that you could sell it to tourist industry actors in remote places where you wouldn't expect to find comfort or even lodging, like on a desert island in Thailand . Also, landlords that have an empty land or spot they would like to make profitable could be interested. It could also be adapted and used as extra amovible housing in crowded cities during big events like the Olympics, during festival season, etc. Great concept with lot of potential. Good luck!
Thanks for sharing your story :) who know maybe someday the staymote auto system can be sold separately and implemented in your place. Yes, desert island will be great location, and serving Olympics seems possible.
I like your idea! It would be great if the local people could buy/own these to rent out to travelers and perhaps make some money from tourism in the process? Since they are small, it would be like owning your own little slice of a hotel/room to rent out. Very interesting concept! I hope it develops into something sustainable for the market!
Thanks Kristen! Yes, i'm thinking they can be "hotel partner"
