Stardrift

What is Stardrift?

Stardrift is a personalized travel assistant that streamlines the entire trip planning process by combining calendar integration with intelligent preference learning. Rather than navigating multiple booking platforms, users input their travel requirements through natural conversation and receive curated options for flights, rail routes, and accommodations that align with their budget, schedule, and personal preferences. The platform automatically syncs with calendar systems like Google Calendar and Outlook, ensuring travel plans never conflict with meetings or existing commitments. By learning individual preferences such as preferred airlines, seat selections, hotel amenities, and departure times, Stardrift eliminates repetitive data entry and delivers personalized recommendations that improve with each interaction.
