Going vs Tripomatic

Going (formerly Scott's Cheap Flights) is a flight deal alert service that tracks airfare across destinations and notifies members when prices drop significantly or when mistake fares appear, so travelers can book directly with the airline without a booking-fee markup. Alerts are delivered by email and through the mobile app.

Tripomatic (the rebranded successor to Sygic Travel) is a trip-planning platform that combines destination discovery with day-by-day itinerary building. It draws on a database of millions of places with details, opening hours, and local tips, letting travelers drag and drop stops into a schedule that automatically estimates travel time between them. The platform adds AI-generated itinerary suggestions based on interests and travel style, smart routing across multiple transport modes, and AI-driven cost estimation. Trips can be built collaboratively in real time, exported as PDF, GPX, or KML, and accessed offline, with mobile apps on iOS and Android used by a claimed 3 million-plus travelers.
