## About

Founded in 2017 and based in California, US, Welcome Travel AI Inc., trading under the name Welcome operates as a travel guide mobile application. The company was co-founded by Matthew Rosenberg, Peter Gerard, Mark Armendariz, and Mark Essel. In September 2021, Welcome raised USD 3.5 million in Seed funding led by Accel.

Welcome's app provides an app that utilizes real-time search, a proprietary context-driven discovery mode that considers dozens of data points to make relevant and personalized recommendations in the exact moment the user opens the app. The company's interface combines the utility of a maps/location app that allows users to see smart, custom suggestions alongside access to recommendations and lists. Welcome also aggregates relevant articles and reviews from travel and lifestyle sites and respected brands.
