@andy_speakspots Speakspots sounds like a fantastic tool! How did you manage to integrate Skyscanner and Booking.com into your platform? I’ve heard they have high barriers for new suppliers, with only a select few companies actually managing to partner with them.
@ignacio_echanove yeah, with skyscanner we have a bespoke partnership and API access. you have to go through a selecion process and need to have a minimum of monthly users.
Does it take into account travel styles like slow travel or adventure-focused trips?
@ruth_funmilayo Three out of the ten questions in the questionnaire, focus on these. As of "slow travel", the questionnaire includes two questions specifically to "Secret spots" and "Include a sunset spot". And as of adventure-focused, we do include "Nature getaways" as a questionnaire option.
Right now, the questionnaire is static, but we aim to make it more dynamic depending on the user's previous history and the destination (barcelona is different from tenerife in terms of tourism offer!).
Thanks for the feedback Ruth!
@jomasego thanks for the feedback! we look forward to add more messaging platforms, and voice assistants over time!
Love the smart budgets feature plus the growing level of personalization of travel preferences, catering for people who like both more touristic and off the beaten track experiences!! Curious if there are plans to build a mobile app experience?
@svilen_savov thanks for the feedback. We are not planning to build a native app (ios/android). It's not on our roadmap. Our roadmap includes other channel integrations e.g. voice assistants, instagram ,etc But not developing a native app. That's a personal thesis where I only see value in having native apps for things "you do every day". But travel, is not something you do every day. Happy to discuss, I know there are a lot of travel apps. But we don't want to go along the same road as them - we are something different
I am heavy user of this App. Great UX, easy to understand and I have tested both in Spain and across Europe
Thank you! Hope you are liking the new budget UX we launched a few days ago too!
