Travel Intelligence

No rail alternative.
No cabin class to drop.
Still lower cost and carbon.

RouteZero compares the real alternatives at booking and surfaces the lower-cost, lower-carbon option, inside the tools your people already use. The obvious levers - switch to rail, drop a cabin class - aren’t the only ones: a cleaner aircraft or carrier, an electric train over a diesel one, a better departure time, or a change of mode where one exists.

What travellers see

The better option, surfaced before they book

RouteZero appears inside your existing booking tools. When a better option exists - even just a cleaner aircraft 30 minutes later - travellers see exactly what it is, why it’s recommended, and what’s in it for them. There’s nothing to fill in and no calculator to open - it’s just there as they book.

The critical insight

Policies are a good place to start. But the best results come trip by trip.

Take Edinburgh to London. ‘Prefer rail’ sounds sensible - and first-class rail does beat a full-service flight on cost and carbon, but not a £40 easyJet fare from Luton. It’s the same for every blunt rule: ‘no domestic flights’ ignores routes where flying is the only option; ‘business class over 10 hours’ splits a 9- and an 11-hour flight arbitrarily. The right answer changes by carrier, time, and price - a flight 30 minutes earlier can be 20% lower-carbon and cheaper. So Intelligence evaluates each booking individually, against what’s actually available right now. Even the long-haul trips you can’t avoid have a lower-carbon carrier, aircraft, or cabin, so the emissions left to account for are as small as they can be.

What you control

Full visibility. Complete control.

You set the levers - nudges, incentives, required swaps. RouteZero applies them trip by trip, and reports back.

Integration

Works wherever decisions are made

One AI, multiple interfaces. The logic stays the same regardless of how it’s delivered.

Browser plugin

Installs on employee devices and works with any booking platform. No booking provider credentials stored, no access to other browser data.

API

Embed RouteZero's decisions directly into your booking platform or internal tools. Provide ranked recommendations and policy flags, programmatically, with optional incentive eligibility.

AI booking assistants

The same decision logic, expressed conversationally. As agentic booking tools emerge, RouteZero ensures automated bookings reflect company tolerances and policy.

No booking provider credentials are stored, data is processed securely, and enterprise deployment options are available.
The platform

Intelligence is the action layer. Here's how it connects.

Each step builds on the last. Start wherever makes sense, and grow when you’re ready.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

RouteZero integrates as a lightweight browser plugin that works alongside any booking platform, with no changes to your existing workflow. Travellers continue using the same tools; RouteZero surfaces recommendations where a better option exists.

No. RouteZero works inside the booking tools your people already use, so the emissions and the better options appear as they book - no separate calculator, no form, no spreadsheet after the trip. Anything that asks busy people to stop and engage tends to get left to the end or skipped, so we built it to need nothing from them.

Nothing negative. They can dismiss it and continue booking as normal. If they choose to share why, that feedback is used to improve future recommendations, but it's entirely optional.

Incentives are calculated based on the company's actual savings from the alternative trip. They're designed to fairly compensate the traveller for any additional inconvenience. Not as rewards, but as recognition that the company is asking more of them.

Yes, that's the recommended approach. RouteZero runs the AI over your historic travel data to show projected savings, intervention rates, and traveller impact before anything is deployed.

A clean baseline from RouteZero Data. The plugin itself reads only the booking page the traveller is already viewing. No access to other browser data, credentials, or personal information.

Static policies apply the same rules to every trip regardless of context. RouteZero evaluates each trip individually against real alternatives, costs, and emissions, then decides whether to recommend, incentivise, or stay out of the way.

Yes. The browser plugin works with any web-based booking tool. No integration with the booking provider is required. For deeper integration, the API can embed decisions directly into booking platforms or internal tools.

No. RouteZero only surfaces a recommendation when there is a clearly better alternative for the company. For most trips, the traveller sees a brief confirmation that their options already perform well.

Even when a flight has to happen, the choices around it still move carbon and cost - the aircraft, the carrier, the cabin, the routing. RouteZero surfaces the lower-impact option at booking, so genuinely unavoidable emissions are as small as they can be before anything else has to account for the rest.

Yes, and that’s the intended workflow. When Intelligence consistently identifies the same pattern (e.g. a rail alternative that travellers regularly accept), that’s a signal to formalise it as policy - and Foresight lets you model the change across your whole programme before you commit. A policy sets the baseline rules; Intelligence handles the trip-by-trip nuance blanket rules can’t capture. The two work together: policy raises the floor, Intelligence finds the opportunities above it.
