Lost in Translation, Overwhelmed by Choice? How Trip.com Helps You Navigate Any Destination

Published

on

SINGAPORE, July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Planning a holiday can be exciting, but arriving at a destination often brings a different reality. An unfamiliar language, endless menus you don’t understand, complicated train systems and long queues at attractions can quickly turn travel excitement into travel stress. 

Travellers are no longer just looking for places to stay and flights to book. Increasingly, they want smarter tools that help them navigate the moments in between. Trip.com removes these barriers through a range of tech-savvy tools and destination services designed to make travelling easier, faster, and more intuitive – many of them powered by TripGenie, Trip.com’s in-app AI travel assistant. 

Too many choices? Let AI do the planning 

Researching destinations, opening endless browser tabs and trying to fit everything into a schedule can quickly become overwhelming. 

Trip.Planner helps travellers create personalised itineraries based on travel style, trip duration and preferences, helping users spend less time organising and more time enjoying the journey. 

Whether travelling solo, with a family or with friends, Trip.Planner can help turn inspiration into a practical travel plan in seconds. 

Unsure what to order? Let the menu speak your language 

Ordering food abroad can sometimes feel like a leap of faith. Multiple restaurant menus in different languages can be difficult to decipher, and travellers may miss local specialities simply because they do not know what they are. 

TripGenie’s Menu Assistant tool helps travellers scan menus and understand dishes instantly, making it easier to discover local flavours and order with confidence. 

Turn conversations into connections 

Some of the most memorable travel moments happen through interactions with local people, whether it is chatting with a market vendor, asking a local for recommendations, or learning more about a destination from someone who calls it home. 

But language barriers can limit those experiences. TripGenie’s Live Translation feature helps travellers communicate in real time, making conversations feel more natural and helping users engage more confidently with the people around them. 

With TripGenie, travellers can move beyond transactions to create more meaningful cultural connections and experiences. 

Every attraction has a story, even if you cannot read the sign 

Travelling often means standing in front of a landmark, museum display or cultural site and wondering exactly what you are looking at. 

With TripGenie’s Image Recognition, travellers can use their camera to identify attractions and instantly gain more information, helping them better understand the places around them. 

Instead of simply taking a photo and moving on, travellers can engage more deeply with the destination and culture. 

Skip the queue and spend more time exploring 

Long lines and confusing ticket options can quickly eat into valuable holiday time. 

Trip.com allows travellers to pre-book attractions and select suitable packages in advance, helping travellers avoid unnecessary queues and ensuring they choose the experience that best fits their needs. 

Train travel made easier 

Rail networks are often one of the most efficient ways to explore a destination, but they can also feel overwhelming for visitors. 

From high-speed rail in China and Japan to regional train systems across Europe, travellers often need to navigate unfamiliar booking processes and ticket types. 

Trip.com simplifies the experience by allowing users to easily book train tickets and access regional rail passes, airport express services, and flexible ticketing options across Europe and Asia, including the UK, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Japan, China, South Korea, and more. 

Travel with support when you need it most 

Even the best planned trips can come with unexpected moments. A delayed flight, a missed connection, or the need for emergency help while navigating an unfamiliar destination can quickly add stress to a journey. 

Trip.com’s 24/7 customer support helps travellers access assistance whenever and wherever they need it, ensuring support remains available across different time zones and throughout every stage of the journey. Alongside this, Trip.com’s SOS features provide an additional layer of reassurance, helping travellers access support more quickly in unexpected situations. 

Travel should feel exciting, not overwhelming 

Technology is increasingly changing what travellers expect from their journeys. Beyond simply booking flights and hotels, travellers are now looking for support throughout the entire experience, from planning and discovery to navigation and assistance. 

Trip.com’s growing ecosystem of tools and services reflects a broader shift in travel behaviour, helping travellers spend less time worrying and more time enjoying the moments that matter. 

Download Trip.com and start navigating holidays with confidence and peace of mind wherever you go.

Finatical Software: The Next Decade of Finance Will Be Built on a Structured Financial Data Layer

Published

on

By

As AI transforms finance, trusted and structured financial data—not better prompts—will determine which organizations realize its full value.

DURHAM, N.C., July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Finatical Software, creator of Flash Reports for QuickBooks Online, today announced its vision for what it believes will become the next essential layer of the modern finance technology stack: the Structured Financial Data Layer.

For decades, finance technology has evolved in response to changing business needs.

1995–2015

Finance needed better reporting.

2015–2025

Finance needed real-time reporting, dashboards, and automated KPIs.

2025–2035

Finance needs trusted data for AI-powered decisions.

While organizations are investing heavily in artificial intelligence, many finance teams are discovering that AI is only as effective as the financial data and business logic it receives. Without a single source of truth built on reconciled, complete, and accurate financial information, AI can produce inconsistent analyses, conflicting recommendations, and outputs that are difficult to validate or trust.

“Much of the conversation around AI has focused on choosing the right model or writing better prompts,” said Shaun Pendrigh, Chief Technical Officer of Finatical Software. “We believe the real competitive advantage will come from building trusted, structured financial workflows that AI can consistently understand. Before finance teams can trust AI’s recommendations, they first need confidence in the data, calculations, and business logic behind them.”

Finatical believes finance organizations need more than access to AI—they need a governed foundation that organizes financial information into consistent, reusable, and auditable structures before AI enters the workflow.

That foundation is what Finatical describes as the Structured Financial Data Layer.

Unlike disconnected spreadsheets or opaque AI workflows, the Structured Financial Data Layer creates a trusted financial foundation where data, calculations, reporting logic, and business rules are transparent, reusable, and reviewable. Finance professionals can trace recommendations back to their source, understand how conclusions were reached, and maintain confidence in the decisions supported by AI.

Rather than replacing finance professionals, the Structured Financial Data Layer enables them to work more effectively with AI by combining trusted financial data with human judgment. AI can accelerate analysis, identify patterns, and generate recommendations, while finance professionals retain the ability to review assumptions, validate results, and understand the reasoning behind important business decisions.

“Finance professionals should remain in control of financial judgment,” Pendrigh added. “AI should amplify that expertise—not replace it. But that only happens when AI operates within a trusted financial workflow where both the data and the underlying logic can be reviewed.”

Finatical’s Flash Reports platform is designed around this philosophy by connecting live QuickBooks Online data with Microsoft Excel to create governed, refreshable financial models that become a trusted source of truth for reporting, forecasting, analysis, and AI-assisted decision support. By preserving financial logic within structured Excel workflows, finance teams gain the flexibility of Excel while maintaining the governance and transparency required for trustworthy AI.

“Finance has always required trust,” Pendrigh said. “AI doesn’t change that—it raises the standard. Organizations won’t gain a competitive advantage simply by adopting AI. They’ll gain it by building financial data foundations that make AI trustworthy, explainable, and repeatable.”

“Reporting was the last generation of finance technology,” Pendrigh concluded. “Decision support will define the next. The organizations that build a trusted Structured Financial Data Layer today will be best positioned to unlock the full potential of AI tomorrow.”

About Finatical Software

Finatical Software helps finance professionals transform live QuickBooks Online data into structured, trusted financial information and workflows for reporting, analysis, and AI-assisted decision support. Its flagship solution, Flash Reports, connects Microsoft Excel directly to QuickBooks Online, enabling finance teams to build refreshable, governed financial models while preserving the flexibility of Excel. Finatical’s vision is to become the trusted Structured Financial Data Layer for finance professionals working in Excel with QuickBooks Online.
