ABOUT WAY

 

Way is building the AI, data, and infrastructure layer for the experience economy.

As artificial intelligence automates labor and people reclaim time, the shift toward spending on experiences over things only accelerates. Way sits at the center of that shift as the platform, intelligence layer, and curated marketplace on which experiences are created, distributed, and sold.

Founded in 2020 and headquartered in Austin with offices in Paris and San Francisco, Way built the category of experiences in hospitality from the ground up, during a pandemic that had shut the industry down. Leading global travel, retail, lifestyle, and hospitality brands leverage Way, including Hyatt, Hilton, Alaska Airlines, Aspen, Piaget, and countless others.

Way’s position is layered by design: a proprietary data network built on millions of experiential data points, the system of record for experiential operations, an e-commerce layer embedded directly into partners’ customer journeys, and a marketplace through Partner Exchange, where brands across hospitality, travel, lifestyle, and retail co-create and co-sell experiences with one another. Every brand that joins makes the network more valuable to every brand already on it.

That combination of data, workflow, distribution, and network effects is not something that can be vibe-coded into existence. It compounds. It is what positions Way as the durable infrastructure for the experience economy regardless of how the technology landscape evolves.

Way is backed with $22m in capital from Tiger Global and strategic family offices and angel investors. The company has mid-8 figures of ARR from a global enterprise customer set, with outstanding growth and efficiency metrics.
