brand portfolio to meet the diversity in customer expectations.

"Travelsify is thrilled to have AccorHotels at our side in our
mission to help the hospitality and travel industry close the gap
between guest expectation and reality thanks to AI analytics," said
Bruno Chauvat, CEO of Travelsify. "We are launching new services like
Travelsify Hotel Brand DNA that serves not only the interest of hotel
owners in choosing the right brand, but also hotel groups in managing
brand equity thanks to leading indicators pinpointing brand advocates
or detractors amongst their hotels. After several years of more or
less successful personalization efforts, the industry is now ready to
unlock hotel and restaurant experiences with rich product descriptors
like Travelsify Hotel DNA and Restaurant DNA to delineate more
relevant offers and power tomorrow's voice search, conversational
commerce."

"Better matching and delighting guests with the right hotels is at
the heart of AccorHotels' mission," said Ian Di Tullio, SVP Guest
Services at AccorHotels. "Having access to data, not only guest
preferences, but enriched product data with hotel experience
descriptors reflecting the guest nuances are key enablers for our
strategy. Travelsify has developed a unique AI technology to connect
hotels, restaurants, vacation rentals with the guest taste on a much
deeper level than before. The number of AccorHotels services that
could benefit from Travelsify Product DNA data is countless."

"AccorHotels is pursuing its transformation with an asset-light
business model in which brands play a central role", said Steven
Taylor, Global Chief Brand Officer at AccorHotels. "Managing a
diverse portfolio of global brands requires insightful, objective and
trustworthy customer data such as Travelsify Hotel DNA and Brand DNA
analytics. I am delighted that AccorHotels is partnering with
