About the Company

Stardrift is an AI assistant with the expertise of a top-tier travel agent. We're tackling an incredibly ambitious challenge: finding travel information that isn't captured in today's computer systems, transforming it into structured data, and using it to build a world-class booking experience.

Current search tools are missing a lot of information about the world. Which airplanes have Starlink? Why is CDG the worst airport in Europe to transfer through? When should you take the Northeast Corridor instead of flying?

Today's travelers open ten tabs in Google Flights and pray for the best. We're building something better: an AI that understands your preferences, filters all options, and books correctly-priced trips tailored to you. We're starting with corporate travel search in the domestic USA.

Getting this right is useful, challenging and valuable. Previous travel tech companies have become unicorns, like ITA Matrix (acquired by Google in 2005 for 1b+), Amex GBT (public, 4b+) and Booking.com (public, 150b+). With LLMs, we can do so much more: enable huge deals, reunite families for holidays, and open life-changing opportunities abroad.
