Harnessing AI Tools to Create Stunning eBooks That Elevate Your Travel Business
Written By: Tom Ogg, Co-Founder and Co-Owner – Travel Professional NEWS
Everyone knows that AI is all the rage in business. However, using it is somewhat of a challenge. AI has really made digital publishing something every travel agent should explore. eBooks are one form of digital publishing that travel agents can use to establish your expertise and professionalism. Travel Professional NEWS is publishing an article on using AI in the travel industry and the tools you will need to accomplish this task.
The tools in this article are the ones that you want to use to create compelling and complete eBooks on travel. While there is a slight learning curve if you haven’t worked with layout programs before, it might take a bit of time to learn how to use them. There are so many tutorials on YouTube.com that will bring you up to speed fast. Today’s layout platforms are robust, but easy to use.
Rather than create a list of every AI app, I am only going to mention the ones that you want to use that will create very beautiful and compelling eBooks. One used to be able to create a document in Word or Pages, then turn it into a .pdf and call it an eBook. Those days are long gone. Today an eBook should have a beautiful cover, a professional design, layout, and imagery. It should be very readable. So here are the AI content creation tools you will need. While this article discusses content creation tools, the next will discuss eBook creation tools.
Claude
Claude is the best generative AI platform, in my opinion, that creates content that is more human than all of the rest of AI platforms and apps. Here’s a guide to using Claude effectively in your ebook creation journey.
Planning and Research: Choose a topic, destination, resort and so on that you’re passionate about and define your target audience. Use Claude to brainstorm ideas, create an outline, and gather relevant information. The AI can help find facts, statistics, and explore various perspectives on your subject.
Writing and Editing: Begin with your first draft, focusing on getting ideas down. Consult Claude for feedback on writing style, clarity, and organization. Use the AI to expand key points, generate examples, and refine your prose. Claude can also assist with grammar, spelling, and punctuation checks.
Structuring and Formatting: Discuss ebook formatting best practices with Claude and get advice on creating an engaging structure. The AI can offer suggestions on chapter headings, table of contents, and overall flow.
Enhancing Content: Use Claude to brainstorm ideas for supplementary content like graphics or discussion questions, adding value to your ebook. eBooks shout for media and with AI tools you can easily create your own.
Final Review: Have Claude do a final read through and suggest improvements for your ebook title.
Remember, while Claude is an invaluable tool, the content should be your own original work. By leveraging Claude’s capabilities throughout the process, you can create a polished, engaging ebook that resonates with your readers.

ChatGPT
ChatGPT can generate extensive text quickly, helping travel agents produce comprehensive guides without the need for extensive research time. Whether you’re looking for destination overviews, itineraries, travel tips, or packing lists, ChatGPT can provide a wealth of information that can be tailored to your specific audience.
One of the standout features of ChatGPT is its ability to tailor content to specific travel audiences. Whether your eBook is aimed at first-time travelers, luxury vacationers, or adventure seekers, ChatGPT can adjust the tone, style, and focus of the content accordingly. This personalization helps ensure that your eBook resonates with your target readers. Every traveler is unique, and ChatGPT is highly adaptable to different preferences and styles. Whether a client is interested in luxury travel, backpacking, culinary experiences, or family-friendly options ChatGPT is a great choice.
Travel is all about experiences and stories. ChatGPT excels at creating vivid narratives that can transport readers to different locations. By weaving together engaging anecdotes and vivid descriptions, it can make your eBook not just informative, but also a pleasure to read. This storytelling element is crucial for capturing the imagination of potential travelers.
How ChatGPT empowers Travel Agents with Personalized, Time-Saving Trip Plans and itineraries
Creating itineraries is one of the most time-consuming tasks for a travel agent. ChatGPT can streamline this process by generating comprehensive, day-by-day itineraries that include travel times, activity suggestions, and dining options. Agents can start with a detailed template created by ChatGPT, then tweak it to match the client’s preferences. This saves time and ensures that each itinerary is both detailed and personalized.

Knowledge Base
Openai’s ChatGPT is a great tool for many things, but for writing travel eBooks, Claude is better in several ways.
Claudes knowledge is up-to-date while ChatGPT’s knowledge base is not. When using Claude to research travel the content it delivers is far more relevant. Destinations, resorts, sightseeing attractions etc. are currently allowing you to offer compelling information to your readers.
Consistency
Claude tends to maintain better consistency throughout long-form content, which is crucial for eBook coherence.
Fact-Checking
Claude is more likely to remind users about potential inaccuracies, encouraging thorough fact-checking.
Other AI Generative Platforms to Consider
Perplexity.AI: Perplexity is another solid content creation tool. It costs $20 per month but does give you complete access to both ChatGPT and Claude. People who use Perplexity are very satisfied.
Jasper.AI: Jasper is a great tool for writing marketing content such as blog posts, website content and yes, eBooks too. It costs $20 per month and generates acceptable content,
