Navan Edge announces partnership with OpenTable.
For frequent travelers with packed schedules, finding the right restaurant for each business meal can be a fragmented, complex and time-consuming task. Navan Edge and OpenTable’s integration helps solve that by bringing dining into an intelligent, unified experience. Navan Edge already acts as a concierge for the business travel experience for flights, hotels, and loyalty optimization. By launching restaurant reservation booking with OpenTable directly within its chat-driven flow, Navan Edge is tackling the next critical leg of the booking process with one seamless, personalized itinerary. Soon, Navan Edge will integrate with OpenTable’s private and group dining platform, enabling discovery and in some cases, automatic booking of private dining rooms, restaurant buy-outs and large tables.
“Dining is an essential part of the travel experience, but finding the right spot shouldn’t feel like work,” said Robin Chiang, Chief Growth Officer at OpenTable. “By bringing OpenTable directly into Navan Edge, we’re making it effortless for business travelers to manage their entire itinerary in one place—connecting them to everything from fine dining to great casual spots near their hotel. At the same time, it gives our restaurant partners a powerful new channel to fill dining rooms and reach high-value corporate diners who are actively looking for great places to eat.”
“We’ve all been there—you finally check into your hotel, only to spend 45 minutes toggling between different apps to find an ideal dinner spot,” said Yoad Shraybom, Chief Executive Officer of Growth, Navan. “With Navan Edge, we’re giving everyone a personal assistant and concierge that completely handles the ground game—with context from your location and preferences. This is another step in ensuring users’ experiences exceed expectations from touchdown to takeoff and everything in between.”
The integration introduces powerful, trip-aware capabilities built directly onto the Navan Edge platform:
- Live Location & Trip-Aware Discovery: Navan Edge uses a traveler’s live location and itinerary to suggest tailored OpenTable choices, making it easy to find the right table near an upcoming meeting, office, or hotel. Automatic adjustments from flight updates and changing meeting times are coming soon.
- Deep Memory & Personalized Recommendations: Moving beyond generic search results, Navan Edge learns from past reservations and remembers dietary restrictions, favorite cuisines, and preferred chefs to pinpoint the ideal restaurant.
- Proactive Reservation Reminders: Prime-time reservations in major global business hubs book out far in advance. Navan Edge handles the planning with proactive, timely reminders for travelers before the trip. For example, “You have a trip coming up to Philly next week. Top spots nearby are booking up fast — want to make a reservation?”
- Private and Group Dining (Coming Soon): Booking group or private dining has traditionally meant hours of research, followed by numerous communications. Through this planned integration, users will soon be able to find and confirm private dining rooms for client dinners and team events as part of a trip.
Backed by a decade of business travel experience, Navan Edge is built to understand and act on the nuances of travel as a context-aware concierge. By seamlessly connecting flights, hotels and restaurants, Navan Edge continues to add more features, partnerships, and functionality to make travel effortless and fun, so users can focus on the experiences versus the plans.
