Overview
The storefront sells. The AI layer does the groundwork.
Himalayan Prism was run through Instagram and WhatsApp. Launching a global storefront meant turning a research-heavy catalogue into structured itineraries, inclusions, pricing, copy and imagery without holding the business off the market for months.
We engineered a custom WooCommerce theme and a generative AI workflow that accelerates the manual catalogue work while keeping every publishing decision with the client.

Challenges
03 — 10A full catalogue demanded months of manual work.
Every week offline meant lost bookings.
Research, differentiation, writing and imagery had to happen across every tour before the storefront could launch.
Curation
Create offers that stand apart
The catalogue needed differentiated tours and inclusions, not generic versions of what was already available.Content
Turn research into complete listings
Each tour needed structured data, useful copy and relevant visual material.Time to market
Avoid a 90–120 day launch
Multiplied across a full catalogue, the manual workflow would have delayed selling by months.Solutions
04 — 10Three layers, one controlled publishing workflow.

The website is very savvy in terms of design and functionality, and the packages are very easy to add. I love how Resurgam used AI to create packages for my review. It took a lot of work off my plate that would otherwise have taken me at least 25 days. The design feels truly international and will work well with my global customers. I especially loved the Find your trek section and Plan my journey. The scope was so well thought out that it went beyond the information and requirements I gave. I’m very excited.
