A live network of traveler personas composed by the static interests of the traveler, the trip parameters and the dynamic conditions of the visit, are matched on a continuous basis to a pool of market and destination sourced recommendations, tips and special offers, aiming to satisfy traveler specific interests. The network of travelers build community groups which review, monitor and comment the offerings, over a travel-specific social media application with focused group discussions among people sharing common trip profile features; moreover, the local market actors are able to sense their fluid market formed by the visitor trends and profiles, at the early stages of the trip planning.
An exciting matching between destination offerings and traveler profiles is performed, raising the awareness of the participating visitors and the providers about what is available and what is desired.
