LYVGO’s trip planner is being designed as a global, multilingual journey layer for flights, stays and getting around—not as a booking cart or a replacement for the provider that sells a service.
What it will do
It will turn approved flight, accommodation, public-transport and local-information sources into clear route choices, explain trade-offs and let you continue to the relevant provider. It will never manufacture a fare, a disruption alert, accessibility claim or local recommendation when a verified source is unavailable.
How it stays accountable
Live inventory must come from a licensed or approved feed. Public-transport data must come from official or expressly permitted schedule and real-time sources. Public knowledge and community experiences will be used only when the platform permits it, with a source, date and moderation process. LYVGO will not collect private social content or build advertising profiles from a traveller’s itinerary.
Planned workstreams
Multi-leg journey graph
Connect approved flight, rail, coach, ferry, transfer and walking data into explainable door-to-door choices without creating a combined booking cart.
Release gate: Licensed/official source contracts, transparent fare freshness and independent ranking review.
Global public transport
Prioritise official GTFS and GTFS-Realtime feeds, then use open routing engines such as OpenTripPlanner or MOTIS where source terms permit.
Release gate: Per-city feed licence, coverage and alert-quality checks; no invented disruption or accessibility data.
Local knowledge and experiences
Blend permitted public knowledge, official visitor information and clearly sourced community signals into planning context rather than unverified booking inventory.
Release gate: Attribution, freshness, moderation, rights and privacy review for every content source.
Language and accessibility
Expand the interface locale-by-locale and pair local transport information with accessible, keyboard-friendly route explanations.
Release gate: Native-language review for high-impact travel, safety, accessibility and legal wording.
Constant quality checks
Continuously compare source freshness, route conflicts and provider hand-off outcomes while keeping personal itinerary data out of model-training and ad-targeting systems.
Release gate: Consent design, retention limits, source audit logs and measurable accuracy thresholds.
Separate services, clear responsibility
Even when a plan includes several providers, each current provider hand-off remains a separate transaction. The provider confirms the actual seller, availability and price before payment. LYVGO will not combine services into a cart, issue a booking confirmation, pass account data into checkout or call itself a travel agency before the required registration and operating model are in place.
Core interface language follows your browser preference, with a manual override. Expanding every language and every city requires native-language and local-data review rather than automatic claims of global accuracy.
