Data-Driven Destinations & Tourism Organizations
The reopening phase is upon us, and we know that time is of the essence for destinations (DMOs) and tourism-related businesses to improve their evaluation strategies. Visitor feedback, about an individual business, brand or territory is the secret weapon to obtain a better understanding of competitive positioning, forecasting visitors and mitigating risk.
Our data and platform provides an inside look at a destination’s reputation from a visitor’s point of view. Users can understand and evaluate the perception for any territory based on visitor demographics, their online review and feedback habits, and context (hotel rates, events, weather, etc.) to create a tailored offer, exceeding visitor expectations.
Our solutions provide rich data sets, proprietary KPIs (i.e. The Covid Safety Index, Travel Barometer, Sentiment Score, etc.) and our technology has worldwide outreach across all industries so organizations can have the most holistic and comprehensive overview of their destination or an individual point of interest at their fingertips.
