Mezi
Mezi is revolutionizing travel by giving you an AI assistant for all your travel needs. Just say where you want to go and Mezi helps you make it happen -- from booking your flight and hotel, to figuring out what to do, to handling your online check-in or changes of plans, to being your on-the-ground guide when you arrive. All through a simple messaging app. Artificial intelligence is on the bleeding edge of technology, and we believe that the world has yet to be shown how it fits into their lives. Mezi aims to invent what that means for the everyday person. It envisions a world where anyone can travel with the ease and confidence knowing they have an assistant in their pocket wherever they go.
