AI and automation for hotels, tour operators and restaurants

Hotels and operators depend on platforms that charge a commission on every booking, and restaurants on delivery apps with fees and service failures. We automate bilingual replies, direct booking, WhatsApp ordering and the review that follows, so you sell more without relying on an intermediary.

Who it is for: Boutique and city hotels, tour operators, hostels, restaurants, cafes and dark kitchens that receive inquiries on WhatsApp, social media and Google.

Where the sale is lost

  • Booking platforms typically charge 15% to 25% per booking, according to industry references, and the relationship with the guest stays with the intermediary.
  • Guest inquiries in Spanish and English at any hour, with no fast reply.
  • Restaurants that write down WhatsApp orders by hand and depend on delivery apps with fees and delays.
  • Unconfirmed bookings, empty tables and rooms, and unanswered reviews.

The flow, step by step

Each step shows what the system does, where a person decides and what gets recorded.
