The way people book is broken. For too long, online travel has been dominated by platforms that centralize power, drain value from accommodations, and reduce travelers to customers of someone else’s system. OTAs built seamless experiences, but at the cost of independence and fairness. At the same time, attempts at disintermediation failed: too fragmented, too inconsistent, never able to compete with the scale of centralized platforms. And now a new revolution is happening. AI is reshaping how travelers search and book. But without a standardized direct system, AI will inevitably default to OTAs, reinforcing their monopoly for the next decades. But direct booking is not dead. It is growing. And it represents more than just a sales channel: it is a matter of independence, trust, and connection. Takyon exists to make direct booking the default. We are not building another OTA. We are creating a third way: decentralization, a new direct booking standard bringing the best of both worlds together. Where accommodations and travelers connect directly, without middlemen. A system where every direct booking is simple and standardized. A network where loyalty is shared, not captured. We believe technology should serve independence, not control it. That AI should amplify direct channels, not reinforce monopolies. That trust, easiness, and fairness can be the foundations of a better way to book. Takyon is more than a product. It is an ecosystem. A new category. The decentralized standard for direct bookings. Hospitality is just the first domino. We want to empower any industry where fragmented players are suffocated by intermediaries. We exist to give back control. We exist to make direct inevitable. We exist to define the next era of bookings. The future is decentralized. The future is Takyonic.
