Impala

About Impala
Impala was founded in 2016 by Ben Stephenson and Charles Cowley. The company has developed a meta-API for the hotel industry, connecting to a wide range of hotel property management systems (PMS).
Read full description
This allows travel agencies and corporate clients to access real-time data on room availability, rates, and booking information, streamlining the booking process and providing significant cost savings for businesses. The company's business model is based on a subscription fee for accessing their API or a commission on bookings made through their platform. Their clients are primarily corporate travel agencies and businesses looking to optimize their travel expenses.
The Impala API offers a single point of access to a fragmented hotel PMS market, saving developers the time and effort of integrating with multiple systems. The platform also provides data-driven insights to help businesses negotiate better rates and manage their travel programs more effectively.
