Travel has become an essential part of everyone’s life, but planning a trip still remains a complex and time-consuming process. Questions like where to go, what to explore, how to get there, the best mode of travel, and how much it will cost often overwhelm people. This leads to many trips being either canceled or poorly planned, resulting in missed experiences.

MYn is a travel app that aimed to scale its business by expanding its offerings within the travel category. Instead of limiting itself to just bookings, the goal was to introduce a Travel AI Model that could act as a personal trip planner for users. This AI would help users with everything from discovering destinations, planning itineraries, estimating costs, and finding the best travel modes, ensuring a seamless and well-planned travel experience. This shift was not only intended to enhance user experience but also position MYn as a comprehensive travel solution provider in the market.
