Onboarding

Onboarding is how you get AirScalp ready to monitor flights and act when prices hit your target. If you are a traveler with flexible dates, you set the rules once, then the system keeps checking flight prices in the background. This page explains what happens during onboarding, what you need to provide, and how to join the beta.

Quick start: Join the beta to access onboarding for beta testers.

What AirScalp onboarding does for you

AirScalp uses an AI-powered approach to flight price monitoring. During onboarding, you connect the inputs the system needs, then you define the price targets and boundaries for when it should take action.

Specifically, the workflow is built around this promise: the AI tool constantly monitors flight prices, and when a targeted price is found, it can purchases the ticket for you. Because this is a beta experience for beta testers, onboarding also includes setup steps and parameter choices so you can run within your comfort level.

  • Set your target price for the itinerary you care about.
  • Define user-controlled parameters so the automation stays within your rules.
  • Provide required credentials so the system can operate.
  • Use beta pricing of $99/year (beta pricing as stated).

How to get started

Onboarding is designed to be straightforward. You will create your account, then provide the access needed to run monitoring and automated ticket purchasing within user-defined parameters.

Step-by-step onboarding checklist

  • Join the beta and open your onboarding flow.
  • Add your API key (users provide their own API key).
  • Set your flight monitoring targets, including the price you want to pay.
  • Choose the boundaries for when automation is allowed to run.
  • Store a credit card on file so purchases can run within your user-defined parameters.

After setup, the system can keep checking flight prices and compare them to your target. When a targeted price is found, the automation can take over and purchases the ticket for you, based on the rules you set during onboarding.

Next step: Join the beta and complete onboarding in your account.

Common questions

What is AI-powered flight price monitoring and automated ticket purchasing when a user-defined target price is reached?

It is a setup where an AI tool constantly monitors flight prices. You define a target price and other user-defined parameters during onboarding. When a targeted price is found, the system can purchases the ticket for you, following the boundaries you set.

Who is this for?

This beta is for travelers with flexible schedules who want to take advantage of low flight prices and are comfortable using an AI tool in beta. It is also a fit if you prefer automation that runs in the background rather than checking prices manually.

How do I get started?

Join the beta, then complete onboarding by adding your API key, setting your flight price targets, and choosing user-defined parameters. You will also store a credit card on file to run purchases within those parameters.

Is this pricing available for everyone?

Beta pricing is listed as $99/year (beta pricing as stated). If you are joining as a beta tester, onboarding will reflect the beta terms available at signup.

Do I need to provide anything before monitoring starts?

Yes. Users provide their own API key, and they store a credit card on file so purchases can run within user-defined parameters. You also set the target price and automation boundaries during onboarding.

What does “beta for beta testers” mean?

It means the experience is being tested with beta users. Onboarding steps may evolve as the product improves, and you will be using the beta version of the workflow while it is in testing.
