Traditional travel programmes struggle to reduce cost and carbon.

To drive change, most travel managers rely on the fundamentals of any good programme:

  • Generic policies
  • Programme-level targets
  • Post-trip reporting

EngageAI takes these one step further. It delivers personalised, real-time guidance: the right traveller, receives the right message, at the right time.

Report

The Right Traveller

Analysis of corporate travel programme data reveals a consistent pattern: around 30% of travellers account for roughly 70% of travel emissions and spend.

EngageAI integrates with your organisation's TMC and OBT, and uses your data to identify and understand your high-emitting travellers' behaviour.

Right traveller

The Right Message

EngageAI combines this in-depth traveller data with contextual and travel policy information to send tailored interventions. These nudges can include: 

  • Repeat trip demand reduction
  • Mode and route optimisation based on ticket pricing
  • Flagging predicted travel for improved booking behaviour
  • and many more...
Right message

The Right Time

EngageAI intervenes at key decision making points, such as when your traveller is: 

  • about to book 
  • post booking
  • travelling / in transit.

It delivers these messages via channels the traveller is already using, including email, WhatsApp, Microsoft Teams, Slack, SMS and more.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need Thrust Calculator to use EngageAI?
No, EngageAI can be purchased and deployed as a standalone product. If you also use our Calculator, the two integrate seamlessly, combining emissions reporting and behavioural change, but Calculator is no longer required to get started with EngageAI.
Can I start with a pilot?
Yes. Programmes of any size can start with a pilot to demonstrate real-world impact and ROI before rolling out more widely. Pilots are designed to test EngageAI against your actual travel patterns and decision points, with clear success metrics agreed upfront. We ask for a minimum pilot size of $10k to ensure there is enough volume to measure cost and emissions outcomes.
I don’t have WhatsApp. Can I use other platforms to receive messages / nudges?
Yes. EngageAI can deliver interventions through multiple channels depending on your setup. Channels that EngageAI supports today include Microsoft Teams, WhatsApp, email and point-of-sale booking tools; with deep integrations into TMC apps on the horizon.
Can I add my own company branding to these notifications?
Yes. Notifications can be branded so they feel like a natural extension of your travel programme, including your organisation’s name and tone of voice.
How does this avoid spamming travellers?
EngageAI is designed to be low-noise. It predicts when an intervention is likely to be relevant and effective, and suppresses messages when they’re unlikely to change an outcome, keeping communications targeted and useful.
