About Navan

Navan provides software built around artificial intelligence that helps organizations manage corporate travel and related spending. The platform covers booking trips, processing payments, and tracking expenses, and it is used by employees at client companies as well as the vendors those companies work with. Its core function is to bring the different stages of a business trip, from reserving travel and applying company policy through paying for it and reporting on the expense afterward, into a single connected process.

The company organizes its offering around the departments that typically handle these tasks, such as finance, human resources, and travel management, along with related inventory oversight. Its customers are businesses that send employees on trips and need a way to coordinate booking, spending, and reporting across those employees and the outside vendors involved.

Navan was founded in 2015 and is based in Palo Alto, California. It previously operated under the name TripActions, Inc. before adopting the Navan name in February 2023. Shares of the company are listed on the NASDAQ under the ticker NAVN.
