About Trip8
We’re building Trip8 – a new-age travel tech platform that empowers travelers to get personalized trip quotes from verified tour providers, compare them, and book safely through an escrow-backed payment system. Think of us as the “Zomato + CRED + Airbnb” for holiday packages. Backed by deep industry insight and a growing user base, we’re on a mission to make travel transparent, safe, and seamless across India and beyond.
Trip8 is a travel-tech platform that helps travellers save money by getting custom quotes from verified travel agencies, compare them, and make safe bookings with escrow protection. It also features an AI-powered itinerary planner, a creator-led marketplace, and a user-friendly booking experience.
Through Trip8, people can get multiple quotations from verified agencies for their trip plans e.g. tour packages, car rentals, hotels, experiences and select the ones with lowest prices thereby saving money in their trips.
Now, we're looking for a technical co-founder to join our early team and lead all things tech
