Mindtrip is a travel platform that combines conversational AI with a proprietary knowledge base of places to deliver personalized travel experiences that are accurate, actionable, and all in one place.
As I am creating the itinerary, it randomly refreshes and messes up the order of the places, titles, activities, etc.
I was almost finishing my itinerary and it suddenly refreshed. All the things I spent hours organizing just got switched up. I have never left a review on anything, because I always assume my fault and I know that errors occur, but this one was just too bad.
Great example of an ai-first travel platform that pulls in the visual world of travel! Easy to use, beautiful photos, it even has guides where you can get inspired by someone else’s itinerary and customize it to make it your own. Love that you can also book hotels, flights and attractions right on the website.
I love their approach to the personalization engine. Often when planning a trip everyone gets the same recommendations. The fact that mindtrip's AI learns about me and my preferences and then plans a trip around ME is a real game changer.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
This is Tom from Mindtrip. I remember exactly where I was the first time I saw Mindtrip in action. It was last fall, and I was in my garage logging on as an alpha tester. I was so blown away with the user experience and product ambition that I decided on the spot I needed to find a way to join this company.
Flash forward to today, and we are thrilled to be launching for the public. Give it a try at: https://mindtrip.ai/chatMindtrip is a conversational AI platform designed to help you through the entire travel lifecycle-- from inspiration, to planning, to sharing & collaborating with co-travelers, to booking, and finally the on-trip and post-trip experience.
Here is a 10 min demo I threw together to give an idea of what Mindtrip can do.
A few things to call out. Mindtrip is:
😎 Personalized - We gather content from thousands of sources. Then using our personalization engine, we curate experiences to your taste based on your unique travel persona. Take our Travel Quiz to see personalization in action. https://mindtrip.ai/quiz
💥 Actionable - In seconds, we provide you with interactive and customizable itineraries that include everything you need to book an adventure across the world or in your own backyard. Explore: https://mindtrip.ai/explore
👪 Shareable: Research and plan trips on your own, or else share ideas and collaborate in real time with your co-travelers.
🏠 All in one place - Keep track of all of your reservations — transportation, hotels, restaurants and activities — all in one place.
Let me also say a word about the Mindtrip founding team. A full dozen experienced engineers and designers who've built multiple startups together from scratch to scale, reuniting around a shared passion to make travel a better experience. It's fun to be around!
We'd love to hear your ideas and feedback. I’m here all day to dive into discussions, answer any questions, or just chat about travel and tech.

Congrats to Mindtrip platform for the release, I tried: https://mindtrip.ai/chat and got a description of my trip to Istanbul even with photos of locations, reviews, addresses and opening times! Great job!
@shivam_tiwari24 We do two things now:
(1) The user can update specific travel preferences in their profile
(2) The user can take a fun Travel Quiz https://mindtrip.ai/quiz and based on that Mindtrip creates a travel persona for them, and that travel persona is used to personalize how the Chat AI converses with you, what it recommends, etc.
Early feedback is that it works really well. In future, we will adapt and expand the travel persona based on what the user chats about, favorites, etc.

@frank_denbow the creator program is still
under development, but the goal is to offer a percentage of the booking revenue when a customer books any components of the trip you recommended.
Congrats on the launch Tom 🚀
The video demo looks good!
I have a question - does the use of AI mean that recommendations will be based on popular places? I personally prefer relative unknown places to avoid the crowd. Can Mindrip recommend places like that?
Mindtrip is probably one of the most beautiful products I've ever seen. I tried out the beta to plan out my itinerary in Hawaii and I was impressed by how intuitive everything was. Really incredible product.
This is absolutely unreal! I have just planned a trip around Japan, while asking for suggestions on when is best to go and what special events are coming up that I might want to schedule the trip around.
I'm wondering what will happen once I go on the trip. I'd love if I were be able to review each of the itinerary items, giving feedback on the suggestions so the next trip is even more tailored to my preferences!
@bethany_cutmore_scott Thanks and great to hear it! We currently have a very simple feature called "Up Next" which shows you, well, what's next on your itinerary. Our vision is to build a mobile app for your time "on trip" to help you stay on track or make adjustments on the fly. And we absolutely envision post-trip scrapbooking and reviews. So you are totally in line with where we are going.
@bethany_cutmore_scott Thanks, Bethany! I am right there with you. MobileApp is our next priority. And I agree that having a fun feedback loop on places you experience will be super important. Stay tuned. We are just getting started here at Mindtrip.

Great video and amazing product! I completed the travel quiz, and then requested a comprehensive itinerary for a few upcoming destinations. The recommendations seem spot on! I can't wait to use Mindtrip mid-trip as well, so that I can pivot and tweak my plans based on what others in my travel group want to see and do.
Congrats on your launch today! This is super exciting and I can't wait to try it out. I was wondering where does it pull the information / recommendation from ? I usually go on tiktok or instagram to look at places that look nice. thanks!

@pamsny it pulls recommendations from LLM, but then we augment them with information from thousands of sources from over 30 countries. We also have an Explore section where Instagram and Tiktok influencers can post itineraries for inspiration. In the near future you may even be able to take a link to a social media post and paste it in as a starting point. Hope that helps!
