Tiqets Partners With RUNNR.ai’s Conversational AI Solution To Offer Travelers Personalised Experiences
Amsterdam, 16 February 2023 - Tiqets, the leading online platform for cultural and leisure experiences in Europe and North America, has signed a partnership with RUNNR.ai, a conversational Artificial Intelligence (AI) solution for the hospitality industry. RUNNR.ai enables hotel guests to ask questions, make requests, and book additional services from their mobile phones. The partnership will offer a new way for travelers to easily discover things to do while in a destination, and, seamlessly book them via popular communication platforms, such as WhatsApp.
RUNNR.ai is the first conversational AI-driven communication solution within the hospitality industry that is supporting the entire guest journey, including answering frequently asked questions, promoting upsells, processing in-stay requests, and collecting guest feedback during and after their stay. The integration with property management systems and providers like Tiqets makes it simple to handle some common questions and requests such as adding breakfast to the booking, checking for available parking spots, or finding fun things to do.
Tiqets provides its thousands of partners a way to monetize their traffic by promoting or selling targeted experiences to suit different customer needs through its partner program. The partnership with RUNNR.ai will give Tiqets access to a wider audience and an opportunity to engage with travelers at different stages of their journey. Travelers will be able to plan their trips more efficiently, as the AI solution proactively engages with them from the moment their accommodation is booked and offers personalized recommendations from Tiqets' curated guides. Together, Tiqets and RUNNR.ai aim to offer travelers the opportunity to plan their trips on their terms, be more spontaneous, and find more ways to culture and enhance their travel experience with the best choice of attractions.
