Myra: The AI Brain Behind Seamless Travel
At the heart of this innovation is Myra, a revamped and supercharged AI agent equipped to support every phase of travel from inspiration and discovery to post-booking assistance. Unlike traditional travel bots that stop at suggestions, Myra enables seamless transitions from query to booking, all in a single conversational thread a global first.
Key Features of Myra, the GenAI Assistant:
- Multilingual Support: Currently available in English and Hindi, soon to include more Indian languages.
- Voice and Text Input: Users can interact naturally, just as they would with a travel agent.
- Dynamic Query Handling: Understands complex travel queries and delivers personalized, real-time suggestions.
- End-to-End Booking Journey: Moves users from travel idea to confirmed booking in one flow.
- Cross-Category Support: Covers flights, hotels, holidays, ground transport, visas, and forex.
- Post-Sales and Itinerary Edits: Allows for changes and support after bookings are made.
- Multi-modal Input: Accepts text, voice, image, and video-based interactions.
Agentic AI Framework: A First in Indian Travel Tech
Built on a proprietary multi-agent AI framework, this assistant is designed to collaborate across travel categories. Unlike siloed bots, each AI agent be it for hotels, flights, or holidays works in real-time with shared knowledge, delivering a unified, deeply personalized travel experience.
The framework supports continuous conversations, enabling users to edit itineraries, ask follow-up questions, and get post-sales support in the same chat window. Myra acts as both guide and concierge, simplifying decision-making through contextual intelligence.
Hyper-Personalisation Meets Real-Time Intelligence
This isn’t just a chatbot; it’s a smart travel advisor powered by:
- Live inventory integration for pricing and availability
- User preference data to tailor responses
- UGC (user-generated content) and reviews to offer contextual guidance
- Predictive analytics to suggest best routes and times
For instance, ask “Mujhe Udaipur mein 3-star hotel 3500 ke budget mein chahiye” or “Where can I go in August for a relaxing holiday with my kids?” and get accurate, bookable results instantly.
Inclusive Travel Booking for the Bharat Heartland
One of the most powerful aspects of this launch is its impact on language inclusivity. A significant portion of India’s population remains underserved by digital platforms due to language constraints. By introducing Hindi voice and text support and planning for other regional languages, MakeMyTrip is breaking digital boundaries and building trust across Tier II, III, and rural regions.
This is not just a linguistic inclusion; it’s digital empowerment.
A Seamless Tech Build with Immense Scale
According to Sanjay Mohan, Group CTO, the development of this assistant was MakeMyTrip’s most ambitious technical build yet. The custom-built language models, layered with proprietary planning, scheduling, and verification systems, enable dynamic collaboration across AI agents in real-time.
This technological backbone allows:
- Zero-latency itinerary generation
- Semantic search across abstract travel intents
- Auto-recommendations based on evolving preferences
The system is currently in Beta, and the data being collected from real user interactions will continue to refine the assistant’s performance and accuracy.
Deep Integration Across Booking Lifecycle
MakeMyTrip has always been a technology-first travel company, introducing user-first innovations such as:
- Fare Lock
- Zero Cancellation
- Voice-led customer service
- Train travel prediction tools
With the GenAI Assistant, the brand has now embedded AI across the full travel lifecycle:
- Pre-booking: Destination discovery, route planning, budget mapping
- Booking: Real-time inventory checks, multi-category booking flow
- Post-booking: Live itinerary edits, voice-based support, rebooking tools
This is a 360-degree travel solution, unlike anything the market has seen before.
