Trip.com’s TripGen transforms travel planning with real-time, AI-driven guidance and personalized itinerary crafting.

Trip.com has marked a significant leap in travel technology with the launch of TripGen, an innovative chatbot aimed at revolutionizing travel planning. This AI-powered tool is designed to provide instantaneous, personalized travel suggestions, making trip preparation seamless and enjoyable.

At the heart of TripGen is its advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) capabilities, enabling it to understand and respond to complex and vague user inquiries effectively. It represents a significant enhancement over Trip.com’s existing personalized search options, offering users bespoke travel routes and itineraries, plus tailored booking advice. This integration of cutting-edge AI into the Trip.com platform is a game-changer in the travel industry.

TripGen addresses the common stress points associated with travel planning. From selecting a destination to organizing day-to-day activities, the process can be overwhelming. TripGen simplifies this by allowing users to input any travel-related query, however fragmented, and receive comprehensive, instant suggestions covering everything from flights and hotels to local transport and tours.

Amy Wei, Senior Product Director at Trip.com Group and the Product Owner of TripGen, brings her extensive travel experience into the development of this tool. Understanding the challenges of trip planning, her team’s integration of AI technology into TripGen provides valuable, efficient real-time assistance, making travel planning less time-consuming and more enjoyable.

Schubert Lou, COO of Trip.com, envisions TripGen as a “trusted trip companion,” offering real-time, interactive services within the Trip.com app. This tool is designed to provide broader, quicker, and more diverse support for travelers, significantly enhancing the user experience.

TripGen currently supports multiple languages including English, Japanese, Korean, and traditional Chinese, with plans to add more based on user demand. Powered by OpenAI’s API and the GPT architecture, TripGen’s future expansions may include alternative NLP models, underscoring Trip.com’s commitment to delivering the ultimate travel planning experience.
