Over the years, Agoda has expanded its offerings from hotels in Southeast Asia to a global digital platform with over 5 million hotels and holiday properties, more than 130,000 flight routes, and over 360,000 activities and experiences.
• Over the last twenty years, Agoda developed a search experience that helps travelers find and book their dream trip on Agoda with ease and at the best available rates. To create this experience:
• Agoda records over 2 billion user interactions daily. These can be anything from a click or a scroll to selecting a filter option to find the perfect stay.
• Agoda handles 1 trillion price checks per day to find the best possible deals in accommodation, flights, and activities for its customers.
• Agoda runs over a thousand experiments daily to improve the user experience.

• The Agoda mobile app has been downloaded more than 87 million times – making it the most downloaded OTA app in APAC outside of China according to Data.AI.

Agoda CEO Omri Morgenshtern shared: "As we celebrate Agoda's 20^th Birthday, we can proudly say that Agoda has truly become one of Asia Pacific's preferred travel marketplaces. Agoda's success comes from building a true tech company at scale. A piece of Silicon Valley in APAC. It's a story of relentless focus on pricing and a deep understanding of Asian cultures."

Agoda's focus on innovation will continue to play a pivotal role in the company's future success, believes Morgenshtern. "There is growing demand among customers for more personalized experiences when booking travel. Understanding which properties and flights are perfect for which travelers is what we do well at Agoda, and innovative technologies like gen AI allow us to evolve our travel booking experience even further. We're in great shape to continue bridging the world through travel for the next 20 years."

Building on its commitment to localization, Agoda's deep ties to the markets it serves extend beyond technology and travel. Through initiatives like the Eco Deals campaign, which has raised over USD 1.3 million for the World Wide Fund for Nature, technology workshops for students in Thailand to develop workplace skills, and over 17,000 volunteer hours contributed by Agodans to charitable causes globally, the company continues to give back, particularly in the APAC region, while fostering meaningful connections worldwide.

CHENGDU, China, June 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eforthink has announced its UWB Indoor Navigation and Spatial Services Solution, enabling centimeter-level indoor positioning and navigation for UWB-enabled smartphones in large venues such as shopping malls, airports, hospitals, exhibition centers, museums, and stadiums. The solution turns smartphones into positioning devices. It eliminates the need for dedicated user-side tags or handheld devices while delivering high-precision navigation and operational insights.

Built on a downlink UWB DL-TDoA(Downlink Time Difference of Arrival) architecture, the system integrates UWB anchors, spatial maps, and advanced navigation algorithms to provide real-time indoor positioning, arrival detection, multi-floor route planning, and spatial analytics for venue operations. Eforthink is among the first companies to validate end-to-end indoor positioning across both iOS and Android ecosystems, accelerating the global adoption of indoor location services for UWB-enabled smartphones.

The announcement comes as the industry moves toward greater interoperability and broader deployment of UWB-enabled smartphone services. With the downlink architecture, smartphones receive anchor broadcasts and compute their positions locally, enabling high-density scalability for crowded spaces while ensuring user privacy and data security.

Beyond basic navigation, the solution provides spatial intelligence capabilities for venue operators, including visitor flow analysis, POI calibration, dwell-time statistics, and emergency guidance. Key applications range from entrance-to-parking and parking-to-store navigation in retail complexes, to seamless wayfinding in transportation hubs, hospitals, museums, exhibition centers, and large public venues. This allows operators to improve the visitor experience, reduce congestion, and optimize operations.

Eforthink also makes its capabilities available to the ecosystem through SDKs and APIs, supporting integration with map platforms, venue management systems, ticketing and parking systems, smartphone ecosystems, and location-based service platforms. The company is actively seeking global partners to co-develop real-world applications, expand spatial service use cases, and accelerate the deployment of next-generation indoor navigation powered by UWB-enabled smartphones.

With this launch, Eforthink aims to empower venues and partners with smart indoor navigation tools to make large indoor spaces fully navigable, measurable, and operationally intelligent.
