The platform offers an AI-driven end-to-end vacation planning solution, where users simply specify their destination and vacation preferences, and the platform generates detailed itineraries, flight recommendations, curated accommodation, dining, and activity options. According to the Bengaluru-based company, it addresses key challenges travellers face such as complex processes, information overload, limited personalisation, and local expertise. Rimigo says that it will combine collaborative tools with AI-powered guidance and curated booking options to make international travel more accessible and enjoyable. With advances in AI, it plans to create a unique opportunity for personalised vacation planning experience. Rimigo claims that it has already organised over 120 vacations in a beta phase and around 50 of these trips have been completed, with many users planning their next vacations with them or referring their friends. The remaining 70 trips are still in the planning stage.
