How it works
TravelOwl connects to AI assistants through an MCP (Model Context Protocol) connector. Instead of a plan that stays in a chat window, the assistant writes a real, structured trip into your account, which you and anyone you share it with can keep editing in the app.
You need a free TravelOwl account. You can create one while connecting.
Set up
Claude
In Claude, open Settings → Connectors. Find TravelOwl in the directory, or choose Add custom connector and enter:
https://mcp.travel-owl.co.uk/mcp
Claude asks you to log in to TravelOwl. Each person connects their own account.
ChatGPT
TravelOwl for ChatGPT is coming soon to the ChatGPT apps directory.
Then ask
“Plan me 3 days in Lisbon with TravelOwl: food, museums and a day trip to Sintra. Create it as a trip and add the activities.”
What the assistant can do
Read
- Your trips, and the full plan of one trip
- A trip’s notebook
- Who owes whom on a shared trip
Change
- Create a trip, with a multi-city, day-by-day plan in one go
- Add, update or remove activities, accommodation, transport and expenses
- Update a day’s location and notes
- Create checklists, and add notes to the notebook
- Record or remove a settle-up payment between trip members
Your assistant asks before updating or removing anything. Changes are limited to 200 a day per account; reading your trips is never limited.
It can't book or pay for anything, and it only sees trips you're a member of.
Your data and disconnecting
What is shared
When your assistant uses TravelOwl, the trip details it reads are sent to that assistant's provider (Anthropic or OpenAI) as part of your conversation, and their privacy policy covers them from there. See our Privacy Policy.
Disconnect
In Claude, open Settings → Connectors → TravelOwl → Disconnect. In ChatGPT, open Settings → Apps → TravelOwl and disconnect. To remove everything, delete your account.
