About Acai Travel
Acai Travel is rebuilding the foundations of travel operations with agentic AI. We build the post-booking servicing layer — fare rules, schedule changes, IRROPS, refunds, waivers, traveler comms — that today still runs on thousand-agent call centers at the world's largest airlines, OTAs, and TMCs. Our product turns those workflows into APIs, letting our customers operate faster, leaner, and with a fundamentally better traveler experience.
We're backed by Nauta Capital, Amadeus Ventures, and Draper (raised $5M and soon raising a Series A), with ~20 enterprise customers including Direct Travel, TravelPerk, Kiwi.com , Etraveli, Altour, Internova, and Lufthansa City Center. Our founders previously built and sold 30SecondsToFly to American Express Global Business Travel.
We're a small, global team across New York, Barcelona, and Pune. We value an ego-less approach to problem-solving, deep technical curiosity,
and a sense of "OK-ness" in all situations — we see hard problems as the most interesting part of the job.

Acai is built around two products that work together. AI Travel Agent reasons over a PNR, applies airline and agency policy, and executes the presente change in the GDS (Amadeus, Sabre, Travelport) — chaining composable skills like fare-rule analysis, exchange and refund execution, and traveler communications inside a single conversation. AI Supervisor monitors every case across the operation in real time, classifies intent and sentiment, and routes work betwee
