OpenAI acquires AI travel agent startup Odessia from Sonder co-founder Francis Davidson
OpenAI has acquired Odessia, the AI travel agent startup Sonder co-founder Francis Davidson founded less than a year ago, and Davidson is joining OpenAI to focus on travel. Terms weren't disclosed and Odessia's service has already shut down. The startup raised about $6 million in a Sequoia-led round and says tens of thousands of early users planned more than $60 million a year of travel with it. OpenAI confirmed the hire but hasn't announced travel-specific products.
