The financing supports the significant advancements in AI development that it has made since its start in January 2023. The business claims that the majority of the tourism sector still operates on antiquated technology, which is why they aim to bring it into the AI era.

Offering a novel method of booking, experiencing, and visualizing vacation packages—that is, packages catered to a younger demographic—is their pitch. According to YGO, they are the only company on the market that lets customers book flights and accommodations together with any kind of activity (such as retreats, concerts, festivals, etc.) directly through their platform.

Jan Seifried, CEO of GetAway Group, said: “The combination of deep AI expertise and comprehensive tourism knowledge makes YGO Trips an outstanding player in the market. I am convinced that YGO Trips can sustainably transform the industry.”

With the additional funding, it intends to quicken business expansion and consolidate its dominant position in the travel sector for AI. The unique artificial intelligence (AI) of YGO Trips transforms travel planning by fusing visual and natural language components.

Because of its wide network of partners, the AI can handle complicated bookings in real-time depending on customer preferences, costs, and availability. It can even personally customize journeys. The creative AI behind YGO Trips, according to its founders, guarantees fair travel pricing, provides an easy-to-use interface, and is free to use.

Julian Kögel, CEO of YGO Trips, added: “We are thrilled by the trust and support we have received from our esteemed investors. This strengthens our goal to revolutionize the tourism industry with innovative AI technology.”
