Klerk

Klerk operates as a collaborative corporate travel platform, established in 2022 and headquartered in New York. The company aims to address challenges in the business travel sector that arose following the global pandemic. It provides small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) with access to corporate hotel discounts, which were previously accessible primarily to large enterprises. The platform also offers hotels a way to connect with corporate clients and increase occupancy rates.

Klerk's platform utilizes technology and predictive analytics to mediate between SMBs, event organizers, and hotels, streamlining the booking process for business travel related to conferences and events. It offers users discounts of up to 40% on over 500,000 hotels worldwide and provides flexible cancellation options. The service caters to businesses, event organizers, and venues. For event organizers, Klerk simplifies the process of securing discounted hotel rates for attendees, and for venues, it provides sourcing services free of charge.

The company's business model bridges the gap between smaller businesses often paying higher travel rates and hotels dealing with unoccupied rooms. By aggregating the purchasing power of numerous SMBs, Klerk can negotiate favorable rates. The company has received Early Stage VC funding and is backed by investors including Swell Partners and OpenDoor Venture Capital.
