AltoviaReframing flight search around the traveler.

An AI-powered mobile travel product that brings flight search, personalization, price tracking, and trip planning into one coherent experience.

Overview

Most flight products start with a rigid form and end with a wall of nearly identical options. Altovia starts with the person traveling: where they are, how they like to fly, which programs they use, and what the rest of the trip needs to look like.

We built the native app and supporting backend as one connected travel system. Users can search live inventory, talk through options with an AI travel companion, track changing prices, and carry a promising flight into a broader trip plan.

The challenge

Flight inventory is large, time-sensitive, and inconsistent across providers. The product had to make that complexity feel fast on a phone while preserving detailed search state, personal preferences, loyalty programs, price history, notifications, and collaborative trip decisions.

The approach
01

Compress a complex search into a mobile flow

We designed native one-way and round-trip flows that surface useful options quickly without hiding the details travelers care about. Search state and results are structured for repeat use instead of disappearing after a session.

02

Use AI as a travel interface

The conversational layer helps users express intent that does not fit neatly into filters. It works alongside profile data such as cabin preferences, nearby airports, currencies, and award programs to make recommendations more relevant.

03

Extend the product beyond discovery

Live price tracking, push alerts, hotel and activity data, generated itineraries, and group-trip voting turn a flight result into an ongoing planning workflow rather than a one-time search.
