Traveln.ai’s trip planning experience had a major gap, no integrated map. UX Shine redesigned the experience with an AI-powered map that learns user preferences and surfaces the most relevant locations first. The result: faster decision-making, smoother trip creation, and a more engaging discovery journey for travelers.

Trip planning without a dynamic map is like navigation without a compass, it forces users to work harder, decreases discovery, and slows decision-making. Traveln.ai’s early app version relied solely on lists and static cards, leaving travelers with no visual context of locations or proximity.

When Traveln.ai reached out, we quickly assessed the core problem, an app designed for trip planning couldn’t succeed without a map at its center. With our free 7-day trial, we assigned them a dedicated UX designer to start exploring solutions immediately.
Before partnering with UX Shine, we were leaning toward hiring in-house designers to build our map feature. The results Rawad and his team delivered completely shifted our thinking. In just a few weeks, they designed a map experience that streamlined trip planning and introduced strategic ideas. The speed, depth of insight, and polished execution we got from UX Shine would have taken us months to replicate in-house. This project proved to us that the right design agency doesn’t just match in-house capabilities, they can outperform them.

When Traveln.ai approached us, their vision was ambitious, become the go-to AI trip planner where users could design journeys in minutes, not hours. But there was a critical gap, without a map the app couldn’t deliver on that promise.
When Traveln.ai approached us, their vision was ambitious, become the go-to AI trip planner where users could design journeys in minutes, not hours. But there was a critical gap, without a map the app couldn’t deliver on that promise.
From our early alignment sessions, three themes became clear:
A Map-first experience was essential
Balancing Discovery with personalization
Faster Trip completion as an end goal
Why a Map-First Approach Matters
Users needed spatial context to compare top spots, hidden gems, and routes. Without it, planning felt incomplete.
Discovery Without Overload
Giving travelers curated highlights + AI-driven personalization, without being overwhelming.
Speed Equals Stickiness
The business needed travelers to move from inspiration to completed itineraries faster, reducing drop-offs and boosting retention.

Through UX Audit, user interviews & competitor analysis, We uncovered two high-impact opportunities, Map Pin Hierarchy based on previous user interest and behavior and surfaced by the AI analysis to personalize the map and streamline decision-making

We designed a 3 stage pin strategy:
Primary Pins: top interest locations personalized per user previous interest & behavior.
Secondary Pins: contextual recommendations expanding relevance.
Discovery Pins: zoom-level based hidden gems for deeper exploration.
We also suggested a new monetization opportunity for the businesses via Sponsored Pins, a revenue model within the highlighted pins that serve both user needs and business growth goals.

From the vision emerged a flow built around simplicity and clarity. Defining the AI pin logic early ensured the map wasn’t just pretty but also usable.
