FOR HOTELS AND HOSPITALITY

One of 13 industries we build for

OTAs take a fifth of every booking and own your guest.

Booking.com and the rest take their cut, your photos do not do the property justice, and the guest who loved their stay belongs to the platform, not to you. We build the direct-booking engine and the concierge that brings them back.

WHAT A PROPERTY LOSES TO OTA COMMISSIONS AND LOST GUESTS, EVERY MONTH

THE DAY NOW

The stay is lovely. The platform keeps the guest.

A property runs on bookings, reviews and repeat guests. Here is where the platforms quietly take the relationship.

THE OTA CUT

A fifth of every booking, gone

Every booking through an OTA hands over 15 to 25 percent, and the guest details belong to the platform, not to you. You cannot even thank them directly.

a fifth of revenue, to the platform

THE FLAT PHOTOS

They do not do it justice

Phone photos of the rooms under bad light. The property looks ordinary next to the one with a real shoot, and the booking goes there.

listings that undersell the stay

THE SLOW ENQUIRY

Answered after they booked

A guest messages with a question at night. By the time someone replies in the morning, they have already booked elsewhere.

enquiries answered too late

THE LOST GUEST

Loved it, never came back

A guest had a wonderful stay. No way to reach them, no reason to return sent. Next time they book through the platform again, and you pay the cut again.

repeat guests, never recalled

THE DAY WITH THE SYSTEM

Same property. Same warmth. The guest, back with you.

Not a heavy PMS. A layer that captures the direct booking and keeps the guest yours.

BOOKED DIRECT

Off the commission

A direct-booking engine on your own site and WhatsApp, with payment, so guests book with you instead of handing a fifth to the platform.

the booking, finally yours

SHOT TO SELL

The property at its best

Phone photos become magazine-grade room and property shots, plus a short cinematic reel, so the stay looks as good online as it feels in person.

a property that sells itself

ANSWERED INSTANTLY

A concierge that never sleeps

An AI concierge answers enquiries day and night, quotes availability, and closes the booking before the guest looks elsewhere.

enquiries closed, not lost

GUESTS WHO RETURN

Brought back directly

Past guests get a warm, well-timed reason to return, straight from you. Repeat stays you do not pay a platform for.

the guest, back direct

You can be fully booked through the platforms and still not own a single guest. The warmth was yours, the relationship was theirs.

Ranges from common hospitality patterns, not a single client. Shifting even a slice of OTA bookings to direct usually pays for the build.

Different properties. Different leaks.

Every property loses to the platforms somewhere specific. Here is where, in their words.

Representative, not specific clients.

A fifth of every booking goes to the OTA, and I never even get the guest's number.

Not sure where your bookings leak? That is the call.

Thirty minutes, no deck. Show us how your property actually runs and we will tell you which of these fits, or whether something else does. You do not have to know what you need.

A few of the things we have built for properties. Pick what fits, or let us point you.
