ML & GenAI-Powered Personalization and Workflow Optimization in Leisure Services
A leisure services provider from Europe, seeking to enhance its operational agility and customer engagement, turned to Ksolves for a data-driven transformation strategy. Manual workflows, static pricing, and underused data assets were creating friction across customer touchpoints and business decisions.
To address this, Ksolves designed a phased roadmap blending Machine Learning (ML) and Generative AI (GenAI) to infuse intelligence into every major operational area, from itinerary generation to sentiment tracking and revenue optimization.
The outcome was a scalable AI foundation with measurable improvements in efficiency, personalization, and business insight, all aimed at supporting and enhancing the work of their agents.
The challenges faced by the client are as follows:
-
Manual Itinerary-Design Workflows
Agents spent crucial hours manually curating itineraries, which limited scalability, consistency, and personalization, while increasing operational costs and reducing response times for customer requests. -
Reactive, Rule-Based Pricing
Without dynamic models, pricing was static and manually updated, making it difficult to respond to market trends, competitor changes, or demand fluctuations in real time. -
Generic Customer Experience
The lack of AI-driven personalization meant that all users received similar content and offers, resulting in reduced engagement, lower conversion rates, and a lower perceived value in a competitive travel marketplace. -
Low Operational Intelligence
Siloed data across teams and systems delayed insights into booking patterns, agent performance, and service gaps, hindering fast and data-driven decision-making at the operational level. -
Content Production Lag
Marketing and content teams struggled to meet the growing demand for content, with manual creation processes resulting in slow turnaround times and inconsistent quality across web and marketing content.
Ksolves crafted a four-phase implementation strategy integrating ML and GenAI across core value areas: Revenue, Efficiency, Customer Experience, and Strategic Insight.
- In Phase 1: AI & Data Readiness Assessment, we initiated stakeholder workshops to identify workflows best suited for AI-driven transformation. This was followed by a comprehensive AI feasibility audit that assessed data maturity, uncovered usage gaps, and evaluated existing infrastructure. To demonstrate early value, we delivered a Proof of Concept in the form of an AI-powered query assistant, enabling agents to retrieve critical information swiftly and accurately.
- In Phase 2: Itinerary Automation with ML + GenAI, we leveraged ML models to cluster customer interaction histories, allowing for highly tailored travel recommendations. Alongside this, we introduced an NLP-driven GenAI assistant that interactively captured user preferences to guide the selection of itineraries. A dynamic itinerary generator was also developed, capable of adjusting to real-time variables like weather conditions, local events, and operational constraints.
- In Phase 3: Dynamic Pricing and Demand Forecasting, our team trained ML algorithms to detect patterns in booking behaviors, anticipate demand surges, and monitor competitor activities. These insights enabled the client to implement dynamic pricing mechanisms, optimizing margins during high-demand periods. Additionally, we implemented revenue forecasting models that supported more accurate inventory and campaign planning.
- In Phase 4: Content Generation and Sentiment Analysis, we deployed GenAI models to automatically create engaging content, such as blog posts, destination guides, and landing pages, dramatically reducing manual effort. ML-based sentiment analysis tools were used to monitor and analyze feedback from various sources, including reviews, emails, and surveys. To bring it all together, we launched a real-time insights dashboard offering leadership a comprehensive view into customer sentiment and satisfaction across all channels.
- About a 20% reduction in manual itinerary-design time using AI-assisted flows
- Roughly a 15% increase in conversion from personalized itinerary suggestions
- Real-time pricing adjustments helped optimize margins during peak periods
- AI-generated content accelerated output by approximately 60%, enhancing visibility through web channels
- ML-driven dashboards enabled leadership to act on trends, not just reports
Ksolves’ hybrid strategy, integrating Machine Learning and Generative AI, transformed the operational backbone of a fast-growing service provider. The phased approach ensured quick wins, such as AI-assisted planning, while laying a long-term foundation for predictive analytics and real-time personalization.
With engineers in the loop, every AI recommendation remained transparent, verifiable, and aligned with business goals, creating a repeatable blueprint for AI maturity in the travel sector.
