How do the AI trip planner and Optimize work?

Stippl can generate a starting itinerary for you with AI, and Pro accounts can go further with Optimize and AI-generated day plans.

Generating a trip with AI

Start AI trip generation from the empty planner in the app, or from the home or discover page on web. Generation usually takes around 1 to 2 minutes. You can close the screen while it works, the app can send you a push notification when the trip is ready.

AI suggestions can be imperfect. Treat the generated trip as a starting point, then review and edit it to fit what you actually want.

Free accounts can generate 2 AI trips. After that, generating more requires Stippl Pro.

If a trip generation seems stuck for much longer than a couple of minutes, message us and we will look into it.

Optimizing your trip

Optimize rebuilds or reorders your route based on your preferences, such as keeping certain destinations locked, reducing transport time, staying longer in fewer places, planning a round trip, or favoring nature or beach time. You can also add a free-text wish to guide it further.

Optimize requires a Stippl Pro subscription.

Optimize shows you a preview before applying anything, and you can restart the optimization as many times as you like before confirming.

Applying an optimization replaces your trip plan, including destinations, hotels, and details. It cannot be undone, so review the preview carefully before tapping "Use optimized trip".

Generating a day plan for a destination

Generating a day plan requires a Stippl Pro subscription.

On a destination's notes, you can generate a day-by-day plan for that destination, with an optional hint such as "avoid the main highlights". The result is added to the destination's notes, where you can edit it freely.
