What is Navan?
Navan combines business travel booking with expense management and corporate cards, and uses AI agents to prefill, audit and reconcile expenses so that finance teams handle fewer reports by hand.
Navan covers flight, hotel, car and rail booking, travel policies and approvals, and a Navan Expense module with corporate cards. Because travel and card data sit in the same system, expenses can be matched to bookings. The company is based in Palo Alto, California, and closed its initial public offering on the Nasdaq in October 2025. On the pricing page, Navan Business is free for travel at companies with up to 300 employees, while larger organizations use Navan Enterprise with dedicated account management.
Navan AI features and use cases
- Prefills and codes expensesThe Expense Agent fills in description, category and codes from card data and trip details, and maps each transaction to the matching general ledger account. Travelers spend less time on paperwork, and finance receives expenses that are already coded, which helps most at month end.
- Audits every expenseThe Audit Agent checks each expense against more than 45 configurable audit rules, approves compliant spend and flags exceptions. Instead of sampling, the finance team reviews only the items that break a rule.
- Reconciles receipts and bookingsThe Reconciliation Agent links receipts, card payments and travel bookings automatically and gives finance a pre-reconciled view. Navan states that 73 percent of expenses are approved and reconciled without human intervention, which shortens the work before month-end close.
- Suggests actions on flagged itemsAdmin AI drafts context-aware replies for approvals and proposes actions for flagged expenses. Administrators spend less time writing follow-ups to employees about missing receipts or policy questions. Decisions on flagged items stay with the administrators.
What sets Navan apart
- Travel booking and expense management run in one system, so expenses can be matched to the underlying trip automatically.
- Free travel plan for companies with up to 300 employees, financed by travel provider commissions; expense management is free for the first 5 users.
- The security page lists SOC 1 Type 2, SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001 and PCI DSS Level 1.
