ABOUT

AI born from tourism, running on premises.

ŞafakAI is the AI business line of Tur Şafak Gezi ve Organizasyon Ltd. Şti. (Şafak Tour). A decade-plus archive of tourism operations, its discipline and its partner network are being rebuilt with the tools of the AI age.

Our name is deliberate: dawn is the moment night ends. We exist to build that moment into every business's operation — not flashy demos, but systems that work on Monday morning.

  1. HERITAGE

    Şafak Tour

    Istanbul-based tourism operations: TÜRSAB membership, a decade-plus archive, 1,600+ partner records.

  2. GROUNDWORK

    The digital backbone

    Years of operations were digitized under one roof; that archive is the ground today's products stand on.

  3. 2026

    ŞafakAI

    The AI business line was founded; the EBRAR AI core and the TourOS platform set out.

  4. NEXT

    From pilots to product

    A limited pilot program; from there to Türkiye and the regional market.

A small core, clear roles.

Principles

On premises

Data sovereignty is not marketed; it is installed.

Grounded

An answer that cannot cite its source is not an answer.

Craft

Detail is quality itself — down to the sun on the card.

Continuity

We are measured on Monday morning, not on demo day.
