At Smartvel, we are excited to announce that we have completed the acquisition of AVUXI, the leader in location-based context solutions for businesses in the global travel industry.

AVUXI, based in London, has developed the TopPlace platform, an innovative solution that analyses geolocated Big Data to highlight the best of cities and local areas. This technology allows instant identification of the most popular places to visit, transport links, restaurants and much more. It is used by OTAs and metasearch platforms to improve conversion and deliver a higher quality experience to their customers, helping travellers make quick and well-informed decisions about the best location for their stay.

At Smartvel, we are dedicated to helping businesses in the travel industry solve the challenges faced by travellers by delivering relevant content at the right time. With solutions such as Trip Planner, Explore&Go, Event Calendar, TravelSEO, EntryDocs, and more, we aim to inspire travellers, improve SEO and facilitate integration with third-party providers and platforms. The integration of AVUXI into our AI-enriched technology suite not only expands our product offering, but also creates synergies both with our customers and internally.

This acquisition is part of our long-term strategy to consolidate our position as a leader in the destination content market. Already with the acquisition of ArrivalGuides in 2023, we grew to a team of 45 professionals passionate about technology and travel content, and now, with AVUXI, we are confident that we can continue to offer innovative solutions that connect travellers with unique and enriching experiences.

Our CEO, Iñigo Valenzuela, sums it up perfectly:

‘I am delighted to welcome AVUXI to the Smartvel group. Its incorporation will allow us to work with new key players in the market and strengthen our value proposition. Through this acquisition, we will create a powerful combination in the travel industry. AVUXI’s innovative solutions will fit seamlessly with our AI-enriched digital technology, allowing us to collect, classify and geolocate all aspects of local experiences, services and places of interest in any destination around the world. I look forward to collaborating with AVUXI and its talented team.’
