TripIt is an intelligent travel organizer that helps do-it-yourself travelers manage their travel plans so that their trips go more smoothly. Travelers simply forward their purchase confirmation emails to TripIt and TripIt automatically creates master itineraries with travel plans and other critical information. With TripIt, it’s easy for travelers to print or access their trip plans from anywhere–and to share itineraries and travel calendars with friends in their TripIt network.
TripIt is a growing smarter every day. The TripIt of tomorrow will increasingly leverage an understanding of place, time and user preferences to do more complex tasks for a traveler. The goal is for TripIt to be like a great personal assistant and take care of all the details so that travelers don’t have to.

To use TripIt, travelers simply forward their travel confirmation emails–no matter where their reservations were booked – and TripIt does the rest. The TripIt “Itinerator” processes related bookings into a master itinerary. By transforming unstructured emails into structured data, TripIt is able to intelligently perform tasks for a user, including aggregating related data from our websites and services. For example, TripIt uses the trip data to automatically pull weather, maps and driving directions, destination information, photos and more.
TripIt also applies the power of social networking to improve the travel experience. With TripIt, travelers can share their travel calendars, access itineraries, and collaborate on planning trips with individuals or across their network of TripIt friends.
TripIt provides travelers access to their information when and where it is needed most – online, in print, in their calendar, on their web-enabled mobile device and in the hands of the people who need to know.
