Introducing Our Most Powerful AI Assistant Yet
The AI Travel Planner is our AI-powered assistant designed to help users explore destinations, discover places and events, and get personalized travel recommendations. It integrates with our Places and Events modules to deliver client-specific content, including attractions, restaurants, events, and activities. This 24/7, multi-lingual travel assistant is added directly to your destination website, providing a trip planning experience that travelers expect: accurate and immediate. Users can type in any language of preference, and answers will switch automatically. No manual translation required.
With this release, the Travel Planner is now available in two versions, along with three packages:
Plus & Enterprise AI Travel Planner
In the Plus and Enterprise packages, you will find an improved experience integrated with the client’s Places and/or Events modules and content you already approve.
The new release brings performance improvements, updated UI, and new features (favorites, folders, guest access), but the product itself is not new.
It continues to rely on the client’s Places/Events dataset.
Essential AI Travel Planner
A completely new option for clients who do not use our Places or Events modules but want the benefit of a website-integrated AI chat solution.
Works independently while still offering the same improved UI, speed, accuracy, and conversation features.
Ideal for clients who only want a conversational assistant without the full widget ecosystem.

⭐ What’s New
Faster response time and improved accuracy in answers
Updated UI with a cleaner, modern layout
Enhanced conversations — after each question is answered, the AI Travel Planner will continue to recommend follow-up questions, encouraging engagement and exploration
Login no longer required — all users can start a conversation without an account
Favorite Attractions — users can mark Places or Events from the responses as Favorites, saving them for later review
Folder Management (logged-in users only) — organize conversations by folder
Plan Trip by Dates — users have the possibility to select a fixed date range from the calendar and the Travel Planner will consider those dates when returning the answer. If the user doesn’t plan for a specific date, the “Flexible Dates” option is also available
Travel Preferences (client-defined) add— the clients can add customized preferences in the dashboard (eg, kid-friendly, budget-friendly, etc). The end users will see these preferences in the frontend and can select them so the AI Travel Planner gives customized answers based on the preference(s) selected.
In the management dashboard, customers can now also:
Upload a custom trigger icon for website branding. Any custom graphic mascot is accepted, and dimensions can be adjusted accordingly. Our default circle icon is still available if desired.
Upload a direct Call-To-Action for the Destination Guide download/link.
Upload up to six prompt questions to help online visitors get their conversation started.
