Planning a trip should be exciting, not exhausting.

But somewhere along the way, it became a part-time job. You open 20 browser tabs. You cross-reference hotel reviews. You build spreadsheets to track costs. You read the same “Top 10 Things to Do” listicle on five different sites. And after hours of research, you’re still not sure if you’re getting a good deal.

We think that’s broken.

Autopilot Vacay started with a simple question: What if AI could do the research for you?

Not just spit out generic recommendations, but actually understand your budget, your travel style, and what makes a trip feel like yours. Then build a complete, day-by-day itinerary with real places, honest cost estimates, and the kind of local tips you’d get from a well-traveled friend.
