Travel search marketplace ixigo has launched 'ixibaba' -- an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot which is designed to simplify online search for travellers.

The chatbot provides quick, quirky answers to all travel planning and booking-related queries.

"ixibaba is a personal travel assistant that can help you with travel queries just like a friend would do. We believe we are at the forefront of this evolution when it comes to travel," said Aloke Bajpai, CEO and Co-Founder, ixigo.

ixibaba will help travellers by finding the best way to plan their trip by conversing on flights, hotels, buses, cabs, places to visit and vacation destinations.

The chatbot also covers weather, things to do in a city and even find offbeat adventure activities.

ixibaba is accessible on both the web and mobile browser. One can also chat with ixibaba on Facebook Messenger as well.
