The founders of Dutch company Experiencegift have launched Away.ai, an automated platform designed to simplify holiday planning.
Instead of searching through dozens of websites and tabs, users share their dates, budget, companions, and preferences through a conversation.
Curated options and direct booking
The platform relies on an algorithm that analyses real-time prices, availability, and quality data for flights and hotels.
Rather than providing an endless list of results, the tool presents a small selection of matching options that can be booked directly.
The system is also designed to suggest destinations travellers might not have considered on their own.
Rewards and international competition
The platform includes a rewards programme that gives users 2% of their booking value back as travel credit in a digital wallet.
When a booking is paid entirely with that credit, users receive up to 4% back, with credit that does not expire.
Away.ai launches from the Netherlands with plans to expand internationally, operating with staff across Amsterdam, London, New York, Athens, and Dubai.
