Travel tech innovator 30 Sundays, an AI-driven travel agency, recently raised $770,000 in its pre-seed funding round. The investment, led by Infoedge Ventures with support from First Cheque, Eximius, Misfits, and various angel investors, aims to fuel the startup’s growth and enhance its tech infrastructure.
The new capital will enable 30 Sundays to expand its offerings to new destinations, focusing on the European market and long-haul travel experiences. Additionally, the funds will bolster the company’s AI and data tools to streamline scaling efforts and elevate customer satisfaction.
Founded in 2022 by Kshitij Chaudhary and Anuj, 30 Sundays utilizes generative AI to automate key processes such as collecting customer data and managing itinerary updates. Through this technology, they also analyze calls and reviews to gather valuable customer insights at scale, boosting their operational efficiency.
With generative AI embedded in their sales, operations, and marketing, 30 Sundays claims a fivefold improvement in efficiency, allowing them to serve more clients without compromising on quality—a frequent challenge for traditional travel agencies that rely on large support teams.
In line with the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry (FICCI) projections, India’s outbound tourism is expected to reach $18.8 billion in 2024, with a projected rise to $55.4 billion by 2034, marking a growth rate exceeding 11% annually.
