Built on 292 million confirmed trip records, CTI delivers the benchmarks, forecasts, and market intelligence that executives, investors, analysts, and travel leaders need to make decisions with confidence.
The Problem
Whether you're negotiating hotel contracts, sizing a market for investment, writing the industry story, or forecasting Q4 travel spend — you've been doing it with data you can't fully trust.
Survey-based benchmarks. Delayed reporting. Incomplete coverage. Vague directional signals. The corporate travel industry has been flying blind for too long.
The industry needed a benchmark built on what actually happened — not what people said happened. CTI is that benchmark.
CTI aggregates anonymized transaction data from 292 million real confirmed bookings — not estimates, not surveys. The result is a clear, empirical view of how the market actually moved, what it's doing now, and where it's heading next.
Whether you're a travel manager building a case for savings, an investor sizing a market, a journalist chasing the data behind the story, or a marketer building a campaign on real insight — CTI gives you the numbers that hold up.
What CTI Delivers
CTI is an intelligence operating system for the travel industry — built on real transaction data, designed for every professional who needs to make decisions that matter.
Track carrier performance, market share shifts, and fare class economics across top corporate city pairs. Know who's gaining ground before contracts come up for renewal.
Compare negotiated rates against real transacted averages in 25+ US markets. Identify where you're overpaying — and where you have leverage.
Understand how advance purchase patterns are shifting by city, season, and segment. Align your strategy to where the market is actually moving.
Forward-looking demand signals for Q3–Q4 2026 with scenario modeling across base, upside, and downside cases. Build budgets and investment theses that hold up.
Identify emerging travel corridors, underperforming markets, and route-level volatility. Make location and supplier decisions grounded in real demand signals.
Uncover the counterintuitive: cities where travelers overpay, patterns that defy conventional wisdom, and signals revealing what the market is about to do next.
Why the Data Is Different
Every CTI insight is derived from confirmed booking data — actual transactions that reflect how travel buyers behave when real money is on the table.
No sampling bias. No recall errors. No self-reporting distortion. Just a clear, empirical view of the market as it actually is — and as it's trending.
For investors, analysts, media, and travel professionals alike: CTI is the difference between a credible data point and an educated guess.
Who CTI Is Built For
Corporate travel is a $1.4 trillion industry that touches every sector of the economy. The data that flows through it — where companies go, how much they pay, what patterns shift — is intelligence that matters far beyond the travel manager's desk.
CTI was designed from the ground up to serve every professional who needs to understand the travel market: from the CFO building a Q4 budget to the VC conducting due diligence on a travel-tech investment to the journalist writing the definitive piece on corporate travel's recovery.
CTI serves a wide and growing ecosystem of professionals who need authoritative, transaction-based travel intelligence. Corporate travel managers and procurement leaders. CFOs and finance teams. Airlines, hotels, and travel suppliers. Venture capital and private equity investors. Travel-tech entrepreneurs and marketers. Industry analysts and researchers. Journalists and media professionals. Conference organizers and trade associations. Government and policy analysts. Strategy consultants and corporate advisors.
Corporate Travel
Market-level intelligence that validates your decisions, strengthens supplier negotiations, and elevates your credibility in every executive conversation. Stop defending your program with surveys — start with data.
Finance & Procurement
Independent, transaction-based data for accurate travel budgets, sharper negotiations, and projections finance will actually defend. Stop using vendor-supplied benchmarks as your source of truth.
Travel Suppliers
Understand where corporate demand is moving, how booking windows are shifting, and where competitors are gaining ground in markets that matter to your revenue strategy.
Travel Technology
Ground your product decisions, pricing models, and market expansion strategy in real demand data. CTI tells you where the market is and where it's heading — before your competitors figure it out.
Venture Capital & Private Equity
Travel is a massive, data-sparse sector where most due diligence relies on incomplete proxies. CTI gives you the empirical view that investment decisions in travel-adjacent companies deserve.
Media & Publishing
The numbers behind the travel story have been hard to find and harder to trust. CTI gives journalists and editors the transaction-level data to write with authority — not approximation.
Travel Marketing
Campaign strategy built on real market intelligence performs better than strategy built on assumptions. CTI tells you which markets are hot, what buyers care about, and where the spending is shifting.
Research & Analysis

Industry Organizations
Bring authoritative data to your members, events, and publications. CTI positions your organization as the intelligence hub of the corporate travel community — not just a membership directory.
Strategy & Consulting
Client engagements in travel, hospitality, and adjacent sectors require authoritative market intelligence. CTI gives you the data foundation to build strategy recommendations that clients can't challenge.
Government & Policy
Corporate travel is a reliable economic indicator — it moves with business confidence, hiring cycles, and sector growth. CTI provides policymakers and researchers with the empirical data to understand what business travel is saying about the broader economy.
Academic & Education
For researchers studying business behavior, economic patterns, mobility, and supply chains, CTI provides the transactional dataset that primary research can rarely access at this scale and specificity.
