Doesn't AI solve this?
There’s a common assumption that future AI agents will be smart enough to infer everything about a traveller. But even the most advanced AI can’t guess your accessibility needs, dietary restrictions, preferred hotel room type, or who you're happy to share a tour with — unless you choose to tell it.
HATPro provides a structured, privacy-respecting way to share that information. It gives AI something better than guesses: clear, accurate inputs directly from the traveller. That’s how we move from smart AI to informed AI — and deliver truly personalised experiences.
How do travellers build out their profile without it feeling like a chore?
They only have to do it once — and even then, it doesn’t need to happen all at once. Travellers control their own data and can use AI agents on their side to build out their profile incrementally — for example, answering a few questions to create a golfing profile when planning a golf vacation, or adjusting privacy and sharing preferences as needed.
The user interface is up to the integrator, so it can be designed to feel natural and contextual within the overall experience.
How is this useful in practice?
A food tour operator doesn’t need to send out detailed forms or ask guests about allergies — travellers can share that information securely through their HATPro profile. It’s faster, more accurate, and avoids repetitive questions, creating a smoother experience for both sides.
Hotels can receive service preferences like room setup, accessibility needs, or check-in preferences directly from a guest’s profile — without having to store personal data over time. This keeps operations simple while still delivering high-quality, personalised service.
