Manual pricing is leaving money on the table
Seasonal rates adjusted 4x per year can't respond to demand spikes, weather, or local events. Competitors adjust hourly—you adjust when you have a spare minute.

Not a vendor.
A fellow hotelier.
A fellow hotelier.
I'm Aaron — and I run a 16-room motel on this system every single day.
Three years ago, I was spending 4+ hours every day on tasks a computer should do: checking competitor rates, copy-pasting booking details from emails, texting housekeepers about room assignments, manually sending confirmation emails and review requests.
One day I did the math: 4 hours/day × 365 days = 1,460 hours/year wasted on manual busywork. That's two full months of my life every year.
So I built this system — not as a side project, but to run my own motel at 764 W. Bethel Rd in Bethel, Maine.
6 months later:
281
Emails processed automatically
41
Bookings created by AI
95%
Auto-approval confidence
99.9%
Uptime (my bookings depend on it)
Revenue is up 40%. I got my time back. And I took a two-week vacation for the first time in a decade — occupancy went up while I was gone.
"You're not buying software from a vendor. You're getting a fellow operator's battle-tested solution. When something breaks, it's MY bookings at risk. That's why reliability is non-negotiable."
— Aaron, Forward Deployed Founder & Owner, West Bethel Motel
The problem every independent hotelier lives with:
Manual pricing, inbox overload, staff coordination chaos, and zero time to work on the business.
Guest emails eat the day
Confirmations, door codes, directions, mid-stay check-ins, review requests—writing them one by one costs 3 hours a day and still misses guests.
Housekeeping coordination feels like firefighting
Whiteboards, text threads, last-minute flip rooms. High stress for you, unfair workloads for staff, and rooms that risk missing check-in deadlines.
Flying blind on performance
No single source of truth for occupancy, RevPAR, booking velocity, or cancellation patterns. Growth decisions rely on gut feel, not intelligence.
Meet your AI team—four agents that run the hotel 24/7
Each agent is fully autonomous yet transparent, with human override whenever you want it.
💰 Dynamic Pricing Agent
Monitors competitor rates, demand signals, weather, and occupancy in real time. Adjusts prices 2-3x daily to maximize RevPAR within your guardrails.
- +$8K to +$10K monthly revenue lift
- Occupancy up 7%, ADR up 16%
- Approvals required only when variance >20%
📨 Guest Communication Agent
Delivers six perfectly timed messages per guest—from instant confirmation to post-stay review requests—personalized with room codes, itinerary, and upsells.
- 100% of guests receive concierge-level comms
- Reviews jump from 4.1★ to 4.7★
- Integrates with Gmail + SMS for two-way replies
🧹 Housekeeping Workflow Agent
Builds a prioritized schedule every morning, flags flip rooms, predicts workload, and pushes assignments to Google Chat or SMS in seconds.
- 2-3 staff hours saved per day
- Zero missed turnovers or confused shifts
- Real-time alerts when a room risks slipping
📊 Property Intelligence Agent
Tracks 18 metrics automatically and surfaces weekly insights: occupancy trends, revenue forecasts, booking lead time, and recommended promotions.
- Confidence-scored recommendations
- Exports tailored for investors or lenders
- Decision log with every insight explained
Proven revenue growth and ROI you can validate yourself
The ROI Calculator (Section 5 in VALUE-PROPOSITION-ROI.md) lets you plug in your room count, ADR, and occupancy to see exact financial impact.
Typical property (16 rooms)
Monthly revenue increases from $29,640 → $38,060 in 90 days. Annual lift: +$101,040.
Payback in under 45 days
Average first-year ROI between 1,500-2,500% depending on subscription vs. license. Payback period: 1.5 months.
Conversion compounds the gains
Guest communication boosts booking conversion from 8% → 10%. That’s +100 bookings/month on a 5,000-visitor site.
Time is money
Owners reclaim 6-7 hours a week and redeploy staff to higher-impact work. Housekeeping chaos finally ends.
| Property size | Monthly revenue lift | Annual revenue lift |
|---|---|---|
| 10 rooms | $5,200 | $62,400 |
| 16 rooms | $8,420 | $101,040 |
| 25 rooms | $13,100 | $157,200 |
| 40 rooms | $21,000 | $252,000 |
| 50 rooms | $26,200 | $314,400 |
Conservative scenario from VALUE-PROPOSITION-ROI.md: +7% occupancy, +16% ADR, baseline 65% occupancy / $95 ADR.

Operators are reclaiming time and profit
Real voices from USE-CASES-SUCCESS-STORIES.md.
“I took my first real vacation in 5 years. The AI ran the motel perfectly while I was gone. Occupancy actually went up while I was away.”
“I cried when I read the AI-generated emails. They were better than mine. More thoughtful. More detailed. I realized: I can actually do this.”
“Our 64-year-old front desk manager was terrified of technology. Now she tells every guest how our smart system works. She’s proud of it.”
FAQ & objection handling
The top questions we get, answered exactly as outlined in COMPETITIVE-ANALYSIS.md, Section 8.
“Why not stick with my current PMS? It’s cheaper.”
Your PMS is a database—you still do the work. We cost $234/month more than Little Hotelier, but we drive +$8K to +$10K revenue and save 28 hours every month. The cost delta pays for itself 30× over.
“Can I trust AI with guest communication?”
Run in demo mode first: the AI drafts every email for your approval. Templates carry your brand voice, include room codes, itineraries, and local tips. 94% of properties enable auto-send after two weeks.
“What if AI makes a bad pricing decision?”
You define min/max bounds and approval thresholds. Any change above 20% needs your sign-off. Safety rails block extreme swings, and you can override instantly. In testing, AI beat manual pricing 84% vs. 67% optimal decisions.
“I’m not technical. How hard is this to run?”
Setup is done-for-you. Daily workflow is approving pricing nudges and checking a Google Chat digest. If you can reply to an email, you can manage the AI. We’ve onboarded 78-year-old hoteliers successfully.
“What if we decide to leave later?”
We’re month-to-month. Export all your data in CSV. We even help you transition—though 99.2% of customers renew because the system keeps printing money.
