What it is

Business travel booking agent for SMEs is an AI-agent business for SMEs without a travel manager. Concretely: employees request trips by chat; the agent books within travel policy, handles changes and centralises invoices.

You know it is working when you see: trips booked, policy compliance rate. Main risk to manage: booking API access, disruption handling.

How it works

  2. The agent collects its inputs automatically using: Calendar / booking and CRM.
  3. AI does the core work with: LLM API.
  4. Automatic quality checks run before delivery; anything unusual is sent to you for review.

Concrete example

Example: a customer from the target group (SMEs without a travel manager) signs up. What they get from the first week: employees request trips by chat; the agent books within travel policy, handles changes and centralises invoices. The customer pays €12 per trip. On your side you spend about 5 h per week on: reconciles payments, refunds and accounting exports; checks legal and regulatory points and signs off risky decisions.

How we estimate this

Start-up cost = idea price (€79) + one month of running costs while you build (€280). Monthly profit = low end of the revenue estimate (€800) minus average running costs. We assume 2 months of ramp-up at half revenue and add your setup time. Your own working hours are not counted. It is an estimate, not a promise.
