We connect travel sellers to airlines through one simple integration
Built for travel sellers that want one clean way to search flights, sell tickets, add extras like bags and seats, and handle changes or cancellations across many airlines without stitching together a separate integration for each carrier.
OTAs must integrate airline-by-airline across different NDC schemas, servicing rules, ancillaries, and edge cases.
Air distribution still concentrates billions of euros in incumbent layers, proving value but also leaving cost and complexity in the system.
Richer offers, bundles, and ancillaries exist, but travel sellers lack a clean way to access them consistently at scale.
A single API for shopping, pricing, ancillaries, booking, changes, cancellations, and order servicing.
We connect multiple airlines and normalize inconsistent content into one developer-friendly schema.
We abstract retries, failures, fare rules, and servicing complexity so OTAs can focus on conversion and customer experience.
Skift estimates the OTA sector at $94B in 2024, rising to $107B by 2026, with $794B gross bookings in 2024. That means the buyers of better airline connectivity already operate at global scale.
We are not trying to own all travel spend. We are targeting the bottleneck layer that sits between airline supply and digital sellers.
A traditional GDS booking can pass through multiple intermediaries, each adding a fee, markup, or legacy workflow layer. Our model connects the seller through one API into airline NDC content and avoids stacked distribution costs.
Many airlines are actively steering agencies away from legacy GDS bookings by adding explicit surcharges on EDIFACT channels. Turkish Airlines says that, effective May 1, 2026, a surcharge of USD 30 per ticket applies to bookings made through GDS EDIFACT channels, while no additional fees apply through TKCONNECT and other alternative channels. Lufthansa Group has also maintained and adjusted its Distribution Cost Charge on GDS bookings, with recent examples around EUR 22 per ticket through Sabre and higher USD equivalents in several channels.
More than 70 airlines are certified by the IATA Airline Retailing Maturity framework, showing broad movement toward NDC-enabled retailing.
Travelport says it supports 26 and counting airlines through NDC, confirming that multi-source aggregation is now a real agency requirement.
Incumbent revenue shows how valuable the distribution layer remains, even before modern APIs fully reshape it.
Platform subscription and usage-based access for sellers that need scalable airline connectivity.
Transaction fees tied to successful booking or servicing events align revenue with customer growth.
Premium workflow, servicing, analytics, and reconciliation capabilities can deepen account revenue over time.
This creates a high-margin infrastructure profile: once integrations are built, additional sellers connect through the same normalized layer with strong operating leverage.
Direct API-first benchmark in this category. Duffel raised a $30M Series B in 2019 after earlier funding, validating investor appetite for modern airline connectivity.
A more direct category comp. AirGateway positions itself as an NDC aggregation platform with a REST/JSON gateway and claims access to 25+ to 30+ carriers through one platform.
Amadeus, Sabre, and Travelport are the infrastructure we want to displace in this workflow, not the startup comparables. They prove market size, but the product thesis is to bypass legacy distribution layers.
Neutral aggregation, cleaner developer experience, faster implementation, and focus on the seller workflow rather than legacy distribution stacks.
They need breadth of content but cannot afford deep custom airline integrations across the board.
These players care deeply about servicing, reliability, and operational efficiency on top of fare access.
Each new airline connection makes the platform more valuable to every seller already integrated.
Core thesis, product architecture, and target workflows are defined: shopping, booking, ancillaries, and servicing through one API.
Focus current conversations on design partners, pilot customers, and airline connectivity opportunities rather than overstating scale.
Secure first pilots, integrate first airline set, demonstrate reliability, and convert technical interest into recurring revenue.
Be explicit: pre-scale but solving a proven pain point in a very large market with visible comparable demand and funded peers.
Global digital airline distribution infrastructure linked to a $1.008T airline revenue base and a $622.6B online travel market.
The OTA and digital seller segment already represents $794B in gross bookings and needs better airline access infrastructure.
Initial wedge: European and mid-market OTAs, TMCs, and consolidators needing faster integration and lower distribution friction.
We understand both sides of the marketplace: airline retailing complexity on the supply side and integration pain on the seller side.
We are not trying to build a consumer brand. We are building infrastructure, where reliability, abstraction, and workflow depth create durable moats.
