g8trip — Your Personal AI Travel Agent

Most people open forty browser tabs when planning a trip. None of them talk to each other. None of them book anything. g8trip is the single place that goes from "I want to go somewhere" to a confirmed plan — with Vani doing the research.

Why we built this

I spent 18 years building digital products — at ShareChat, Dailyhunt, Vizury. I understood how the internet worked. I still found trip planning genuinely painful.

Every trip started the same way: a dozen tabs, conflicting blog posts, and no single place that went from intent to a confirmed plan. I built g8trip because I was the user. Not because I spotted a gap on a slide — because I kept making the same avoidable mistakes and thought someone should fix this.

The result is Vani — an AI travel agent that plans full itineraries, searches live flights and hotels, handles visa research, and works as well for a solo traveller as it does for a group of twelve trying to agree on dates.

40

The average number of tabs a traveller has open while planning a trip.

None of them book anything. Vani replaces all of them.

What Vani can do for you

One conversation. Everything you need to plan, search, and book a trip.

🗓️
Day-by-day itineraries

Built around how you travel

Tell Vani where you want to go and for how long. She asks what matters — travel style, dates, starting city — and produces a structured day-by-day plan. Supports road trips, fly-and-explore, multi-city tours, single-base stays, treks, and hybrid routes.

✈️
Live flight search

Real prices, inside the chat

Vani searches live flight inventory — one-way, return, economy or business — and shows prices, duration, stops, and baggage allowance. You complete the booking; she handles the research.

🏨
Hotels with live availability

Filtered to what you actually want

Pool, beachfront, free cancellation, private villa, breakfast included — tell Vani what matters. She searches live inventory and returns options with confirmed pricing.

🛂
Visa requirements

Current answers, not 2021 forum posts

Vani covers visa requirements, processing times, and documents for any destination — including full Schengen multi-country logic. She links directly to Atlys for applications when you are ready.

🎟️
Tours, activities and trains

Booking links, not just suggestions

Food tours, hot air balloons, museum entries, train journeys across Europe and Japan — Vani surfaces booking links via Klook and partner sites so you can confirm without a separate search.

🩹
Travel insurance and eSIM

The practicalities, sorted

Multi-provider insurance quotes covering medical, cancellation, and lost baggage. International eSIMs via Saily for 80+ countries. Ask Vani before the trip and not at the boarding gate.

👥
Group planning

One plan everyone agrees on

Shared planning sessions where everyone can chat with Vani, compare options, and land on a plan without the back-and-forth that turns group trips into scheduling negotiations.

📍
Nearby places and weather

Ground-level detail, on demand

Restaurants, ATMs, pharmacies, transport stops near any location — powered by Google Places. 16-day weather forecasts or historical climate data for dates further out.

💰
Budget optimiser

Coming into full view

Tell Vani your total budget and she analyses your booking checklist against live prices — flagging where you are overspending and suggesting alternatives. Still rolling out across all trip types.

Our mission

Make great trip planning accessible to any traveller — not just the ones who have time to spend forty hours researching before they can pack a bag. Vani does the research. You do the travelling.

Our vision

A world where the gap between "I want to go somewhere" and a confirmed, well-planned trip is measured in minutes. We are building toward that — one conversation at a time.

Start planning. The tabs can wait.

Tell Vani where you want to go. She will handle the rest.
