QLLM For Airlines

TensorQ Air Powering New Generation RM For Airlines

  • Demand Forecasting Is Underestimating Demand – Not Quantified
  • Dynamic Product / Pricing – Not Personalized
  • Local Optimal Revenue – Not Quantified
  • Every Function Has Own Model For Generating Demand / Revenue
  • Revenue Effectiveness Is Unknown – Not Quantified
  • AI Agents Are Not Accurate …

With These Gaps Its Demonstrable That about 10-15% of Revenue is Left on the Table. Uncollected

Main Themes of TensorQ Air

  • Dramatic Improvement in Revenue Management, addressing these gaps
  • Autonomous Agentic AI For Airline Commercial

Why Today’s RM Cannot Find Revenues, And Avoid Losses ?

Virtually all RM systems work on the past-predicts-future Time Series theory. But past sales alone do not predict future sales.

This theory fell apart a long time ago, and Covid made it obsolete.

Why Today’s RM Cannot Find Revenues, And Avoid Losses ?

Only TensorQ uses a combination of:

Microsegments +

Bayesian regression +

Monte Carlo method.

There are numerous inputs, from past sales to social media signals, to virus spread data to news announcements to discounts to weather patterns…

This delivers predictions that fit actual outcomes better.

Forecasting in Microsegments
Demand = Linear function (company levers, domains, customer choice, Competitor Levers)

Optimization
Monte Carlo Numerical Optimization using Demand Model and Demand Drivers for Local Revenue Maximization of Microsegment

Local and Global Network Revenue Optimization
Primary effects of Demand is Local to microsegment
Demand Drivers including Fare optimized for each microsegment subject to Leg capacity constraints
Aggregating Local optimal demand and revenue results in Global optimal of demand and revenue
Supply optimization is implemented through Bid Price control

Microsegment Optimization Ensures Local and Network Wide Optimal
Benefits of using QLLM

Benefits of using QLLM

Revenue Optimization Becomes Futuristic, Fully Blending AI and OR
  • Very Accurate Leg-Segment AND Origin and Destination Forecasting
  • You can continue your leg forecasting, use QLLM’s Leg and OD Forecasting, making development unnecessary but test it out thoroughly.
  • QLLM forecasting also gives you the same total forecast revenue by any view : Sales, RM, NP, Distribution, Loyalty, Corporate vs Retail, GDS vs Online, etc
  • Provides an accurate and easy path to migrate RM towards NDC requirements, dynamic pricing
  • You can internally develop this LLM using our design. Total ownership and control based on license
  • Very economical in the long run and a positive step function change in Revenue

Economics of QLLM

Economics of QLLM

Your entire AI roadmap is solved in a single Model

Takes 6 months vs 5 years for normal AI roadmap

Has potential to drive up Incremental Revenue 3-5%

This is mainly due to better demand forecasting and local optimization

Very simple hardware needs. Very small storage needed. Very few GPUs needed (10–20 max)

ROI can be very big as you would not need to spend on multiple AI projects all over

Yet the Revenue impact can be very high
