About Gumo
Your AI Travel Buddy
Why we Exist?
Our Mission
Gumo is an AI-powered travel planning platform founded by Mohammad Shakir (CEO) and Manish Narang (CTO) to simplify how people plan trips and local experiences. The product was created to address the fragmentation of modern travel research, where users often rely on multiple blogs, maps, and booking sites to organize a single itinerary.
Gumo uses artificial intelligence to structure user inputs such as destination, duration, budget, and travel preferences. This data is then converted into practical, editable day-by-day plans. Rather than replacing user decision-making, the platform is designed to provide a structured starting point that reduces research time while keeping travelers in control of their final choices.
What Our Founders Say
CEO, Co-founder
Shakir
Gumo was born out of frustration — watching friends get excited for a break, only to give up when the planning got messy. I've been that person scrolling solo while groups buzzing, plans falling apart. We knew there had to be a better way. With Gumo, we wanted to reimagine travel planning from scratch — not with checklists or filters, but with intuition, ease, and joy. One chat. One vibe. A trip that feels like it was made just for you — because it is.

Manish
We want Gumo to feel like your most sorted friend — the one who just gets what you want, knows where to go, and handles the details. But behind that simplicity is serious tech doing all the heavy lifting — from understanding your preferences to curating stays, building out timings, and making it all bookable. We're not here to add another tool. We're here to make each invisible — and travel unforgettable.
