About SwaanStay

India's first AI-powered hotel marketplace where hotels bid for you — not the other way around.

SwaanStay was founded in 2025 with a simple idea: hotel pricing should work for travellers, not against them. Instead of endlessly comparing listings, you post what you need — city, dates, budget — and verified hotels compete for your business with real, negotiated offers.

What makes us different

  • Reverse bidding: Post your Group Booking Bid in 60 seconds; hotels bid live.
  • AI Auto-Bidding & Mythri AI: Claude-powered concierge helps you decide when to accept, counter, or wait.
  • Verified partners: Every hotel is KYC-verified with GST, PAN and bank details on record.
  • Fair play: Server-side price recomputation; no dark patterns, no hidden fees.

Our mission

Save Indian travellers ₹1,000 crore in hotel spend by 2030 — while giving small, independent hotels a fair shot at big-city travellers without paying 20% OTA commissions.

The team

A small, product-obsessed team based in Bengaluru with prior stints at MakeMyTrip, OYO, Amazon and Razorpay. We're building the marketplace we'd want to book from ourselves.
