BookingTruth

Is that booking actually real? BookingTruth is a booking-assurance API and MCP server for AI agents. Feed it booking confirmation emails and receipts; it reconciles contradictions across supplier records and returns a verdict - confirmed, held, pending, cancelled, or an honest unknown - each with a citable proof packet.

The core rule: CONFIRMED is returned only on supplier-authoritative evidence (tier 5-6: an authenticated supplier lookup, or a supplier-issued receipt carrying an issuance artifact such as an eTicket number). Everything below that bar returns a safe UNKNOWN with an indicated_state - never an LLM guess. An OTA "you're all set!" email is not ticketing. "We're processing your request" is not ticketing. An issued 13-digit eTicket number is.

Live endpoint: https://api.bookingtruth.com - sandbox is free, no signup.

Installation

Remote streamable-HTTP server - no install, no key for the sandbox.

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bookingtruth": {
      "type": "url",
      "url": "https://api.bookingtruth.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cursor / other MCP clients: add a remote MCP server with URL https://api.bookingtruth.com/mcp.

Usage

Ask your agent things like:

• "Here's the confirmation email United sent - is my flight actually ticketed?"
• "Expedia says my rental car is confirmed. Verify it."
• "I changed my flight and got three different emails. What's the real state of my booking?"

Or call the tool directly with raw document text:

{
  "documents": [
    {"filename": "united_eticket.txt", "content": "<raw email text>"}
  ]
}

Supplier coverage

Seeded today: United (confirmation + eTicket receipt parsing), Expedia (OTA itinerary), Disney (aggregate reservation emails). More suppliers planned - call supplier_coverage for the live matrix.

How it works

1. Parse - supplier-specific parsers extract typed claims (identity, status, party, money) from each document, each claim carrying an evidence tier (0-6).
2. Reconcile - claims are resolved into booking identities; contradictions (e.g. "processing" prose vs. an issued eTicket) are logged as first-class conflict records, rules R0-R5 decide the verdict.
3. Prove - every verdict ships with a proof packet: the claims, tiers, rule trace, and source hashes behind the decision. LLM output is tier 0 and can never decide a verdict.

See docs/ for ARCHITECTURE, API-SPEC, PARSER-FRAMEWORK, and PROOF-PACKET.

Repo layout

• fixtures/ - synthetic demo fixtures (no real data)
• tests/run_tests.py - 16 checks over the contradiction cases
• server.json - MCP registry metadata (com.bookingtruth/bookingtruth)
