On the left, a white icon resembling a stylized flag or layered sails is positioned above the word "Engine" in bold white text. Below are brightly colored icons with text for different stages of travel: "Book" (red with a plane icon), "Travel" (blue with a departure icon), "Work" (yellow with a gear icon), and "Save" (teal with a document icon), emphasizing the platform's comprehensive travel planning features.

Engine, the travel and spend management platform, announced the launch of Omni Powered by Engine, which allows companies to integrate Engine’s hotel booking experience into a website or app. Omni, according to the announcement, is a developer-friendly hotel booking API powered by the same technology, reliability and speed that Engine is built on, all for free.

With Omni, said the announcement, companies can integrate Engine’s extensive hotel network and booking capabilities to their own platform, without having to build supplier connectivity, payment infrastructure, search capabilities, compliance systems or traveler support from scratch.

Trimble, a global industrial technology company, is collaborating with Engine to integrate Omni directly into Trimble Places, a commercial location database including amenity information, wait times and more. The connection is the first adoption of Omni. Trimble Places connects drivers to over 6 million commercial vehicle locations globally, including fuel stops and warehouses.

Omni will also be integrated into Trimble Road Call, a full-serve vehicle breakdown module within Trimble TMT Fleet MaintenanceTM solution, and Trimble CoPilot, a commercial-grade, turn-by-turn GPS navigation solution designed for commercial fleets.

Together, these solutions serve nearly 800,000 customers across North America. By integrating Omni into its transportation products, said the announcement, Trimble will provide truck drivers seamless access to hotel booking inside the tools they already rely on, at the moments they need it most.

Elia Wallen, CEO of Engine, said, “We created Omni to be a developer-friendly infrastructure that empowers our partners to integrate seamless hotel booking right into their existing platform.” For customers who live and work on the road, said Wallen, “lodging isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s a core part of the experience.” Omni was built, said Wallen, “to handle the heavy lifting so companies like Trimble can deliver that booking experience without building it themselves.”

The Omni integration with Trimble Places is currently available in North America. The integrations with Trimble CoPilot in-cab navigation solution and Trimble TMT Fleet Maintenance are expected to be available for customers in North America in the near future.
