Gogobot (later rebranded Trip.com) was an online travel business headquartered in Palo Alto, California.[1][2] The company was rebranded Trip.com in November 2016[3] and acquired by the Ctrip Group in 2017.[4] Founded in 2010, by Travis Katz and Ori Zaltzman, by 2014 the company was the fifth most visited travel-planning site in the United States.[2]
The platform employed artificial intelligence to allow users to research and book destinations and places to go, including hotels, restaurants, bars and attractions in more than 60,000 destinations, and its community of users could share reviews and pictures from their own travel experiences.[2][5]Forbes referred to the company as a "social network for travelers."[6]
In 2019, following the acquisition by CTrip, CTrip subsidiary Skyscanner merged the company's content and technology into its platform, branding it the “Explore” section of the Skyscanner application.[7]
