Frequently Asked Questions
Is this suitable for a small hotel or guesthouse?
Yes. Core functions such as channel sync and automatic replies work regardless of room count. In small properties the gain usually comes from the repetitive work lifted off the front desk.
Does it work with my existing PMS and channel manager?
Common PMS and channel manager systems can be connected via API. Older systems without an interface may need a middle layer; this is checked in advance.
Does dynamic pricing put rates out of control?
No. You set the floor and ceiling, and the system only moves within that range. Every change can require approval if you prefer.
How is guest data protected?
Data stays in the hotel’s own system, and access is limited to defined users. Retention periods and deletion rules are agreed at the start.
