Company Overview#
Globaleur is a B2B AI platform for the travel industry. It helps airlines, hotels, airports, tourism boards, card issuers, and travel platforms turn traveler data into personalized recommendations, commerce actions, and service experiences.
The company started in Silicon Valley in 2017. Its headquarters is in San Francisco, with an R&D team in Seoul.
Technology & Product#
Globaleur supplies its AI as software that travel companies can add to their own apps and websites. The platform is built around several capabilities:
- AI Travel Concierge — personalized trip planning and recommendations.
- Destination Intelligence — a large base of destination data covering attractions, hotels, and activities.
- Commerce Orchestration — connecting recommendations to bookings such as flights, hotels, and local activities.
The engine ingests traveler signals like loyalty status, itinerary, and behavior from systems such as PSS, CRM, and PMS. It then returns personalized recommendations across digital touchpoints in under one second.
Market & Use Cases#
The main customers are travel enterprises that want to grow revenue on their own channels and depend less on large online travel agencies. Typical buyers are airlines, global hotel chains, airports, tourism boards, and credit card companies.
A clear use case is an airline or hotel adding an AI travel planner to its own app. The platform combines preferences, local weather, and travel conditions to suggest tailored content, then links the trip to bookings in a single flow.
