Your browser has 37 tabs open. Eia has your itinerary ready. Here's what happened in between.
You have 37 browser tabs open. Twelve are flight comparison sites. Eight are hotel reviews. Six are '10 Best Things to Do in Bali' lists. Three are Reddit threads about travel insurance. Two are weather forecasts from different websites showing completely different predictions. And one is that email from your manager asking when you're taking leave.
This is travel planning for most Indian travellers in 2026. We research thoroughly, save everything, then get completely stuck in it.
The problem was never a lack of information. Flight prices lived on Skyscanner. Hotel reviews scattered across TripAdvisor, MakeMyTrip and that one travel blogger whose name you can't remember. Restaurant tips came from three different Instagram accounts. Temple timings were buried in a PDF downloaded at 2am. And you were supposed to assemble all of this into an actual working trip plan whilst also having a full-time job.
Eia planned it. You just showed up.
Alike built Eia to do what your brain was trying to do: take scattered pieces and turn them into one coherent, bookable trip. No more copying flight times into a spreadsheet. No more wondering if your beach day clashes with the cooking class. No more panic-booking accommodation at midnight because you forgot to actually book anything.
Eia is currently in beta on alike.io. Here's exactly how she works.
Why Indian travellers specifically need this
Indian travellers are thorough planners. We compare prices across six websites. We read every review. We message cousins who visited five years ago asking if that restaurant is still good. We join WhatsApp groups to ask strangers about visa processing times.
This thoroughness makes sense. International trips are expensive. Leave days are limited. You cannot afford to waste either. So the research phase stretches from two weeks to two months. Options multiply. The friend group chat descends into chaos because Rahul wants adventure sports, Priya wants beaches and Amit just wants good food. Someone makes executive decisions at the last minute, books everything in a rush, and the trip happens with half the group quietly disappointed.
Eia compresses the research phase from weeks to minutes. You still get thorough analysis. Eia checks distances, prices and what's actually available on your dates. But the cross-referencing happens in seconds, not days. You make the fun decisions. Eia does the grunt work.
For last-minute trips, this changes things completely. Got sudden leave approval? Usually that means skipping the trip because there's no time to plan, or going somewhere familiar because the research is already in your head. With Eia, you can have a full itinerary in around 60 seconds of input. That Bali trip you've been putting off is now actually possible.
For group travel, it's even sharper. When coordinating four friends across time zones, you cannot have a planning process that drags across months. Eia generates the first draft, your group reviews it, makes tweaks, done. No more endless threads.
How Eia turns tab chaos into a trip plan
The brain dump. Open Eia on alike.io and start feeding it everything. Paste that email your colleague sent about Bali hotels. Drop in the link to that article. Type out your mum's insistence that you visit the temple your grandfather went to in 1987. Paste the Instagram reel URL about the sunset spot. Links, text, voice notes typed out. Just put it all in. Eia does not care about format.
Eia reads and builds. She scans everything you've provided. Identifies your arrival and departure times. Spots accommodation and knows where you're staying each night. Extracts attraction names from those lists and blog posts. Reads restaurant tips with their locations. And she reads context: if you've mentioned 'honeymoon,' she prioritises romantic experiences. If you've written 'kids,' she filters out late-night venues and adds child-friendly spots. If someone said 'budget travel,' recommendations shift accordingly.
Geography and routing. Eia plots everything on a map. Group activities by location so you're not zigzagging across the city. She builds a day with a logical flow: breakfast near your hotel, morning activity, lunch nearby, afternoon, evening. If your flight lands at 11 pm, she does not schedule a sunrise hike the next morning. If you've packed three full days back-to-back, she suggests a lighter fourth day.
The itinerary appears. Day-by-day plan with times, locations, estimated costs and transport suggestions. Everything is editable. Don't like that restaurant? Swap it out. Want an extra beach day? Move things around. Eia gave you the structure. You make it yours.
Book it. Because Eia is part of Alike's platform, itinerary items link directly to booking pages. That cooking class in Ubud: click and book. The city pass for Dubai attractions: one click. Alike has 50+ bookable services in one place, including city passes for Dubai, Abu Dhabi, London, Paris and Singapore with savings of up to 50% versus buying individually. You can pay in instalments or use loyalty points from airlines and credit cards you already hold. And when you plan and book through Eia, you get 10% off.
What makes Eia different from other AI trip planners
You've tried ChatGPT for travel planning. You've asked Perplexity about flight options. Here's the actual difference.
ChatGPT gives you text. Eia gives you a booking.
When ChatGPT suggests a hotel, you still need to find it, check availability, compare prices across booking platforms and pay somewhere else. When Eia suggests a hotel, you're looking at real availability within Alike's platform with one-click booking. That's the distance between planning and going.
Eia knows you're from India.
'Budget beach holiday' means something specific to an Indian family: a total spend in rupees, vegetarian food options essential, a safe area, and direct or one-stop flights from Mumbai or Delhi. Eia factors all of this in. She knows Indian passport visa requirements by destination, flight connections from Indian metros and which seasons actually make sense from an Indian departure point. Generic AI tools give you the same output regardless of where you're from. Eia does not.
She handles group travel properly.
Most AI tools optimise for solo travellers. Eia handles couples, families, friend groups and corporate trips. Share everyone's preferences in one conversation — what each person saved, their budget range, their non-negotiables — and Eia finds the actual overlap. Four people, one trip, everyone agreed to.
Eia is also your in-trip companion.
Once you're booked, Eia keeps the trip on track. Daily reminders, real-time updates and proactive alerts before changes become problems. If something goes wrong mid-trip, Alike's travel specialists are available. She stays with you through the trip.
