 ourselves, we’ve personally experienced just how critical it is to shake a hand, share a meal, and brainstorm face-to-face. Business travel is foundational for retaining clients. For team-building. For the future of the business world.

That’s something that will never change, because personal connections make us who we are. Connections require travel. And making travel business-friendly means making it time- and cost-efficient.

For decades, legacy T&E solutions have simply maintained the status quo while raking in huge fees. Their travelers still have to spend hours on basic logistics; admins still have to waste time with busywork, such as manually inputting receipts and filling expense reports; suppliers still have to work with legacy travel management companies that often don’t represent their products well or even display their “full” inventory. It’s no wonder these solutions have left armies of frustrated road warriors in their wake and are causing businesses to waste time and money.

So, in our reinvention, Navan had to do everything differently. And we started with a simple idea: Make life easier for everyone in the network, especially the frequent business traveler. Bring business travel into the 21st century.

Navan was engineered from the ground up with AI at its core, guiding our platform’s development to create a seamless and intelligent experience. This approach anticipates user needs and streamlines every aspect of business travel, setting us apart from solutions that treat AI as an afterthought.

We have built a new category of business software designed for people, recruiting top talent in engineering, product, and UX design, and fostering a self-directed company culture. With the freedom to build from scratch, we leapfrogged antiquated infrastructure to deliver a modern and delightful T&E solution, ensuring AI empowers a personalized and intuitive travel experience.

With Navan, the entire network wins. Travelers book trips easily and quickly, skip tedious receipt-tracking, benefit from fast, friendly, and accurate support, and earn rewards for saving their companies money, which they can redeem for personal travel on Navan. Admins avoid an inbox of petty approval requests, cut down significantly on accounting work, and use real-time data to head off spending issues before they become problems. And our extensive inventory, at some of the best prices, is packaged in a beautiful interface.

So it’s no surprise that we’ve amassed tons of dedicated customers and millions of passionate fans. From small startups to Fortune 500 companies, businesses have partnered with us to make their employees’ lives easier through tech
