Use Case

Your journey starts here: a personalized Virtual Travel Assistant

ABSTRACT
A Travel Assistant supports website users in planning their stay by providing personalized recommendations aligned with the city's branding — including what to see, where to stay, and available activities.

Where: Italy
Mission
Local authority websites often feature static content and offer limited support for individual tourists. They typically lack dynamic tools that simplify trip planning and create a more seamless, integrated digital experience — leading users to leave the site in search of up-to-date information and offers elsewhere.
Solution

The Virtual Assistant powered by EngGPT suggests itineraries, events, cultural attractions, and nature experiences. It displays real-time hotel availability with up-to-date pricing and enables instant bookings.

Accessible 24/7, multilingual, and constantly updated, it provides fast, personalized responses. Users benefit from a comprehensive service without needing to browse through multiple pages or external websites — reducing information search costs and trip planning time.
