What we found — independently

Researched by AIBM, not supplied by the vendor. The vendor has not been involved in this page at all.

Our pricing check · 2026Business Travel is genuinely free (funded by travel-supplier commissions) including booking, policy enforcement and basic expense capture; the Expense product is free for the first 15 users then ~$15/user/mo; Enterprise custom for 300+ employees.
What will cost you money if you skim it'Free' is real but has a mechanism: Navan earns commission on bookings made through its inventory, so the platform's incentive is that your travel flows through Navan — pricing on specific routes/hotels deserves an occasional spot-check against direct booking.

Genuinely good for

companies that want self-serve travel booking with built-in policy control — genuinely free — and optionally unified expense management on top

Skip it if

your travel volume is a few trips a year (any booking site does), or you need expense-only tooling without the travel layer

The honest comparisonTravelPerk or Ramp (for expense) — TravelPerk is the direct travel rival; Ramp attacks the expense side — Navan's edge is the free, unified travel core

Work at Navan? This page is yours the moment you claim it.

Write your own description and it appears at the top of this page, in your words, free — no fee during beta and no strings. What does not change: our research stays exactly where it is, underneath, and you cannot edit it. That is the point of the page. Two honest caveats before you bother: our audience is still modest and growing, and the outbound link is nofollow ugc, so this is not an SEO play.

We have pre-filled the name, site and category we already have on file, so the only thing left to write is the description. A claimed page also drops the noindex we keep on research-only pages.
