The problem it solves

When a flight is delayed, cancelled, or moves gates, operations staff and affected passengers need to know right away. Checking schedules manually and notifying people one at a time means someone finds out too late.

Who it fits

An airline or travel operations team that needs to track schedule changes and notify staff and passengers immediately.

How it works

  1. Every 30 minutes, the automation checks current flight data
  2. It compares that data against your existing schedule records
  3. Any changes are identified and saved
  4. Your operations team gets a Slack notification
  5. Affected passengers get an email, and a text for urgent changes
What you get

Schedule changes your passengers hear about first

Your team and passengers get immediate word the moment a flight schedule changes.

What you get

Instant Slack alerts for your team, plus email and text alerts for affected passengers, with a full log of every change.

What you need

An aviation data API subscription, a Slack workspace, a SendGrid account, and a Twilio account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
