OpenAI acquires AI travel agent startup Odessia
先了解这件事
On November 10, 2026, PhocusWire All News reported that OpenAI acquired the artificial intelligence travel agent company Odessia, with the terms of the deal undisclosed. Odessia founder and CEO Francis Davidson announced the news on LinkedIn and said he would join OpenAI; he said that over the past summer, tens of thousands of early users planned travel worth more than $60 million annualized through Odessia. Odessia's official website currently displays only an acquisition notice and states that the service is no longer available, and that existing bookings or itineraries need to be handled by contacting customer service. On November 11, Skift Feed reported that what OpenAI valued was the Odessia team's ability to build a usable AI travel agent within months, as well as Davidson's ten years of experience running an accommodation company that includes hotels and short-term rentals, rather than its revenue. On the same day, Web in Travel also reported the acquisition, with the terms of the deal likewise undisclosed, and mentioned Davidson's announcement on LinkedIn and that he would join OpenAI.
