Round the Blue
Turning Travel Dreams into Clickable Realities
Problem Statement
Key Pain Points
- Agents were crippled by a lack of tools to publish custom packages, with 25% still stuck in offline duplication, causing lost revenue.
- Customers endured a broken and fragmented booking flow with disjointed systems, manual effort, and endless inefficiencies.
- Dependence on rigid supplier packages left painful inventory gaps, blocking personalisation and driving significant revenue leakage.
- Lack of clarity in package terms eroded customer trust, with 40% of bookings needing clarification and validity questioned.
- Admins struggled without real-time oversight, leaving bookings unmonitored, conflicts unresolved, and visibility completely lost.
- Legacy systems caused massive revenue leakage, reducing conversions and stunting overall business profitability.
Key Metrics
Result: stagnant growth and missed revenue in a competitive market.

Reducing booking clarifications and disputes directly increased conversions and repeat customer engagement. Clear terms and transparency help retain clients and boost long-term revenue per customer.
Centralised Admin Dashboard
Provided live monitoring of bookings, conflicts, and system activity, giving admins complete operational visibility. Real-time insights allow faster decision-making, conflict resolution, and more efficient resource management. Optimised oversight reduces losses and ensures all revenue opportunities are captured efficiently.

Competitive Analysis
| Parameter | Yatra | Round the Blue | Opportunity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Package Creation | Predefined packages only, limited flexibility | Agent Package Builder – agents create and publish custom packages with API flights + hotels | Attract agents who want to differentiate with curated, niche packages |
| User Experience | One-size-fits-all interface for end customers | Dual UX – separate onboarding, navigation, and tools for agents vs. customers | Position as a hybrid marketplace serving both B2B agents and B2C travellers |
| Admin Oversight | Focus on customer-side support only | Comprehensive Admin Console – monitors, moderates, and resolves conflicts | Strengthen governance and reduce disputes with full-cycle oversight |
| Scalability for Agents | Agents act as resellers with no brand identity | Marketplace where 1,000+ agents can publish their packages under verified profiles | Differentiate by empowering agents as creators instead of middlemen |
| Market Differentiation | Competes in saturated OTA space | Bridges B2C and B2B with a hybrid booking and publishing model | Established as India’s first dual-sided travel-tech platform |
