Meet Julia: The world's first Chatbot for tour operators built on GPT-4 technology
Generative AI has taken the world by storm, and the travel industry is no exception. Now, meet Julia, the world's first specialized chatbot for travel organizers.
What would it look like if a chatbot sold trips, answered questions and booked customers' vacations? When I ask Julia about "Tips on sailing trips", I get a quick reply back: "Of course, what do you want to know more about?"
Julia is quick, thorough and skillful when I chat with her on the More Sailing website. The fact that the clock has struck midnight on a Friday night does not matter. The service is there and the answers are as personal as if it were a phone call with a travel expert.
Julia is the world's first travel agent chatbot, using advanced GPT-4 technology to provide five-star support by efficiently selling travel, taking bookings and providing information about the customer's trip. In other words, you could think of her as an old-school travel advisor - but built on GPT-4 technology, cheap to run and your company's best salesperson.
Generative AI is changing the travel industry
After Chat GPT was launched at the end of 2022, AI became a buzz word around the world. At one of the industry's most important travel conferences, the Skift Global Forum, held in New York in September, it became clear that generative AI will change the way we find trips, book them and how industry employees work, according to an article on the Skift news site. The verdict is clear. Generative AI is unstoppable and is developing at a rapid pace.
In a panel discussion between moderator and founder of Skift, Rafat Ali, tech entrepreneur Jason Calacanis and Brad Gerstner, founder of the investment company Altimeter, the discussion included Google's revolution, and how today - 20 years later - we are stuck in the same relatively convoluted and unsatisfactory service in search of the perfect experience. Digital travel agencies' search engines are no exception, and customer service plays a major role in meeting travelers' needs.
- "We believe Julia will revolutionize the way travel companies interact with their customers. Not only will it make the process smoother and more efficient, but it will also offer a whole new level of customer service," says Einar Halldin, CEO of Resemolnet AB.
Meeting customer needs today
Julia the chatbot from Resemolnet has several advantages. She is available to answer questions and assist customers 24/7 without any waiting time and can therefore streamline the flow of a tour operator's workplace. By automating many of the common requests that tour operators receive on a daily basis, companies can free up valuable staff resource for more complex tasks.
Plus, Julia is personal and professional. Forget automated responses and frustration with poor chat tools. Despite being an AI-created chatbot, Julia can provide individualized responses based on the customer's unique needs and preferences thanks to the deep learning capabilities of GPT-4 technology. What's more, she gets sharper the more tricky questions she receives and can be trained on company-specific data in everything from customer support to sales.
- "Tour operators that use AI, such as the chatbot Julia from Resemolnet, will have a completely different competitive advantage than those that do not. "AI is called the fourth industrial revolution and all research indicates that this will revolutionize all industries, not least the travel industry," says Einar Halldin.
The future of the travel industry
Resemolnet is the first in Scandinavia, as far as we know in Europe, to commercialize such a product for tour operators, and for just a few thousand bucks a month, you can get started with a tailor-made chatbot for your company within a week. In addition, there are already plans to integrate Julia with other travel industry platforms and tools to offer a seamless experience for both customers and organizers.
- AI is on everyone's lips and in media everywhere today. Travel Cloud is simply here to help those tour operators who want to jump on the train and win the race," says Einar Halldin.
