Layla

At Layla AI Trip Planner, we envision a future where travel planning transforms from a complex chore into an inspiring, seamless journey shaped uniquely for every individual. Our platform harnesses sophisticated AI technology combined with authentic creator content to bring vibrant, personalized travel experiences directly to users, unlocking new ways to explore the world.

We exist to dissolve the barriers between inspiration and action in travel planning, blending dynamic real-time data with the creativity of global travel creators. By uniting all travel elements—flights, hotels, activities—within one intuitive interface, Layla AI empowers every traveler to create thoughtful, efficient trips that reflect their true interests and desires.

We've been watching the AI travel space explode lately, and Layla AI caught our attention for doing something genuinely different. This Berlin-based startup isn't just another chatbot asking where you want to go — it's what happens when Beautiful Destinations' social media magic meets serious AI planning power.

The backstory here is fascinating. Jeremy Jauncey (Beautiful Destinations founder) teamed up with Saad Saeed (Flink co-founder) to tackle travel planning's biggest headache: that endless browser tab nightmare we all know too well. Their solution? An AI that doesn't just plan your trip but makes you actually excited about it.

What Makes It Click

Here's where Layla gets clever — they're not reinventing travel booking, they're reimagining how you discover what you want to book. The platform pulls in short-form videos from creators to show you destinations in action, not just static hotel photos and generic descriptions.

We tested the personalization engine, and it's impressively thorough. Tell it you're planning a romantic weekend in Barcelona with a $2,000 budget, and it doesn't just spit out hotels. It crafts an actual itinerary that feels like someone who knows both Barcelona and you put real thought into it.

The All-in-One Promise

Layla's betting big on being your single travel planning destination. They've partnered with the heavy hitters — Booking.com, Skyscanner, GetYourGuide — so you can actually book everything without getting bounced around to different sites.

In practice, this works better than we expected. The platform pulls real-time pricing and availability, which means no more "sorry, that deal expired" surprises when you finally decide to book.

Who This Really Works For

We'd recommend Layla to anyone who gets overwhelmed by travel planning but still wants something more personal than a generic package deal. It's particularly strong for leisure travelers who enjoy the discovery process — those weekend trip planners and vacation dreamers who want inspiration alongside logistics.

Business travelers might find it less essential since they typically know exactly what they need. But for everyone else? This feels like the first travel AI that actually gets why planning a trip should be fun, not frustrating.
