I don't understand why all this types of applications assume that a have a destination and dates. I'm very flexible and I can work remotely. Surprise me with the cheapest flight anywhere. Does this kind of app exist?

  When asking that site for suggestions I say that I'm travelling from Birming... and it suggests: Birmingham, Alabama, GB (BHX) That doesn't fill me with confidence.

As others mentioned stuff like that already exists, we wanted to make something we hadn't seen anywhere else.

https://www.google.com/flights/ https://www.google.com/flights/ Discover Destinations does that. You input what kind of destinations your looking for (food, hiking, museums, etc.), and it'll show you the cheapest flights.

One option is something like https://www.jacksflightclub.co.uk/ https://www.jacksflightclub.co.uk/ where they'll send you notifications of surprisingly cheap flights to a variety of destinations.

Many sites do. If you go to Google Flights, half the page is filled with "Discover destinations" with flexible months and parts of the world.

I use a combination of Google Flights and Skyscanner for that. If you put a start airport into Skyscanner, you can tell it that your destination is anywhere, but you still have to pick a date. But it's a decent way of seeing where you can fly to cheaply. Once you pick a destination, Google Flights lets you bring up a monthly view so that you can see which days are cheapest to fly (and sort/filter by things like flight time and price). Google Flights also has explore functionality (IIRC, red dots are airports you can reach directly, grey dots are not), but it can be a bit hit and miss.

https://www.kayak.com/explore/ https://www.kayak.com/explore/ is good for this. It will tell you where you can go for any given budget and dates.

Not sure if you're in the UK but I recently started an e-mail alerts service for cheap, weekend flights. You can check it out at https://citybreakflights.com https://citybreakflights.com. You get weekly e-mails with different dates and destinations.
