Spotnana's Travel-as-a-Service Platform powers unparalleled global travel experiences for corporate travelers.
Navan and Spotnana are two software systems, each with a wildly different view of the world and a particular talent for confusing people in ways that only a highly specialized piece of business software could. Navan, with the flair of a bureaucratic octopus, is an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning, for those who enjoy acronyms that sound like something vaguely painful). Its mission, should you choose to accept it, is to unite all the warring factions of your business—financials, manufacturing, inventory and anything else you care to throw at it—into a single, if somewhat bewildering, superstructure. It’s the sort of thing that medium-to-large enterprises love, particularly when they’ve given up on the simpler joys of life like coffee breaks and fresh air.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the business galaxy, Spotnana does something altogether different. It doesn’t care about your inventory or your payroll; it’s far too focused on making corporate travel slightly less soul-destroying. Spotnana is like a digital travel agent with an unnerving ability to streamline bookings, manage itineraries and turn the dull horror of expense reports into something a bit more bearable. It's aimed at companies where people spend more time in airports than in their actual offices and for them, Spotnana is nothing short of a miracle—assuming you define a miracle as the ability to book a flight without screaming at your computer.
So, in the grand scheme of things, the choice is obvious. If your company’s problem is that you have too many moving parts and need a system to make sense of it all, Navan will graciously sweep in with all the complexity you could ever hope for. If, however, your biggest headache is coordinating international flights for the sales team, Spotnana will swoop down, guide you to the nearest gate and help you submit that expense report before you’ve even finished your complimentary peanuts.
