Global travel management company Carlson Wagonlit Travel has launched CWT AnswerIQ, an AI-powered data insight, reporting and visualisation tool that has been touted to work as a “personalised search engine”.
“CWT AnswerIQ makes corporate travel reporting as easy as shopping for your next pair of shoes on the internet,” said Eric Tyree, chief data scientist, Carlson Wagonlit Travel. “You type your request in the search box, AnswerIQ goes through all your data, and gives you the answers – visualised for ease of understanding.”
By incorporating search engine capabilities on top of CWT’s data lake, CWT AnswerIQ allows clients to access all the data about their own travel programmes in a simple and intuitive way.
The tool provides visibility over three years’ worth of data, updated multiple times every day. Using AI-assisted search technology and machine learning, it adapts and improves its search capabilities, and becomes more personalised over time.
Currently available on a 60-day free trial, CWT AnswerIQ provides a variety of visualisation options. Users can design, create and share dashboards with their colleagues, improving programme effectiveness and saving clients time and money.
