Descriptiontext

BizTrip AI is an early-stage software company building an agentic AI platform for corporate travel management. Founded in September 2024 and headquartered in San Francisco, the company was started by Tom Romary (former Yapta founder, SVP at Deem, and VP Marketing at Alaska Airlines), Andrew Ng (co-founder of Google Brain, Coursera, and DeepLearning.AI), and Scott Persinger (former Stripe Principal and SVP Engineering at Tatari). The product is designed to replace search-based corporate travel booking tools with a natural-language interface: travelers describe trips in plain language and the system returns policy-compliant itineraries that book flights, hotels, and ground transport end-to-end.

The core platform is built around a proprietary Travel LLM and a multi-agent architecture that orchestrates booking, pre-booking policy enforcement, continuous price monitoring, automatic rebooking, and proactive disruption handling across the trip lifecycle. A self-tuning policy engine applies travel policy before options are surfaced, routes out-of-policy requests to the correct approvers, and adapts policy caps to actual travel patterns. The platform integrates with Sabre's GDS, agentic APIs, MCP server, and SabreMosaic Travel Marketplace for inventory access, and incorporates Cerebri AI's historical travel and expense datasets for predictive capabilities. SOC 2 Type II certification, AES 256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit, and SSO/SAML 2.0/SCIM support position the product for enterprise deployment.

BizTrip AI sells through an enterprise demo-based sales motion with custom subscription contracts and is running pilots with Fortune 500 and fast-growing companies ahead of general availability planned for Q2 2026. Distribution is reinforced by channel partnerships with Sabre, TMCs such as Cain Travel, and online booking tool providers such as Serko, plus a strategic technology partnership with Lumo for predictive ML. The company has raised $2.5 million in total pre-seed funding across three tranches, with AI Fund as the largest investor and Sabre Corporation participating as a strategic minority investor alongside RRE Ventures, BAG Collective, BAG Ventures, Correlation Ventures, and individual qualified investors.
