Why we built Privy on agents, not chatbots
A chatbot answers. An agent acts. The difference is the entire product — and it's why your itinerary is structured and grounded instead of generic.
Plenty of travel tools bolt a chat window onto a search box. Ask a question, get a paragraph. That is a chatbot, and it stops exactly where the real work begins.
Acting beats answering
An agent uses tools. It pulls current, verified visa rules and structures a day-by-day plan with real timing and costs. The output is a decision, not a description.
Memory makes it yours
Because the agent remembers your preferences across trips, the second plan is better than the first. The product compounds the more you travel with it.
