Ai Agent Readies For Take Off

Theres a new platform due to fully launch sometime this year, which plans to compete head-on with TMCs in the SMME corporate travel space.

Named Otto, its an AI-powered platform which says its designed to help small businesses and startups streamline their travel bookings. Otto claims it autonomously plans, books, and manages the travellers travel, even mid-trip.

Otto has been designed to be a virtual travel agent for planning and booking business trips, and it claims the ability to provide support during trips if flights or plans change. Ottos CEO says it will also design a travel policy. Users will be able to prompt all of this with normal language.

Otto fills a market gap for small businesses that cant afford the expensive travel management services built for large enterprises, says the website.

Otto has a Beta version currently trialling on its site but aims to launch fully during the current year.
