The Challenge
Planning a trip meant assembling flights, accommodation and activities from separate sources, comparing them against a budget and sequencing them into something coherent — work travel sites did not do. Travellers moved between tabs holding the itinerary in their head, re-checking availability that shifted underneath them.
Sites returning options rather than an itinerary.
Flights, stays and activities booked separately.
Pricing and inventory moving during the session.
Passport and payment details entered by hand.
Approach & Solution
smartData built the platform on the MERN stack with live flight, hotel and activity data, integrated payments and AI itinerary generation. Rather than presenting search results, the generator produces a personalised plan from budget, destination, dates and preferences, with budget optimisation suggesting cost-effective alternatives inside the plan.
A conversational assistant lets travellers plan, modify and book through dialogue, so changing an itinerary does not mean starting the search again. OCR handles passport scanning at the point manual entry usually causes abandonment, and guest access lets first-time visitors use the platform before registering.
