Vocito's AI takes direct bookings via phone/WhatsApp/your website, fills last-minute rooms via waitlist-blast and provides 24/7 concierge service for guests. From €299/mo.
What Vocito does for you
OTA commission (Booking.com, Expedia) eats 15-18% of revenue. Last-minute empty rooms = €0. Concierge after hours = complaint. Vocito automates all.
| When | Now — manual | With Vocito |
|---|---|---|
| Direct phone booking | Reception busy, customer via Booking.com (15% commission) | AI takes 24/7, books directly (no commission) |
| Last-minute empty rooms | Not actively promoted, €0 revenue | Auto blast last-minute -30% to waitlist |
| During stay | Guest asks for restaurant tip, reception asks colleague | AI concierge 24/7 with neighbourhood database |
| Emergency (AC broken at 3 AM) | Guest calls reception, nobody responds | AI dispatches to on-call staff directly |
| Check-out | Guest leaves, no review prompt | Auto email 24h after check-out: review link Google + TripAdvisor |
| 1 year later | Guest forgotten, books elsewhere | Auto email "when you stayed last year — special offer" |
How it works
AI asks: dates, number of guests, room preference (twin, queen, suite), extras (breakfast, parking). Checks availability in PMS (Mews, Cloudbeds, Apaleo, Opera), books directly. For repeat guests: knows preferences from history. No OTA commission = +15% margin per direct booking.
Per room type separate waitlist (people who enquired but 'room was full'). On cancellation: auto WhatsApp "slot free tonight -30%, first to accept wins". Typically fills 60-70% of last-minute open rooms — otherwise €0.
Guest asks: restaurant tip, museum hours, weather, taxi, emergency. AI answers from your neighbourhood database (your recommendations, not generic). Emergency (water issue, noise complaint) escalates to on-call staff. Saves reception during and after hours.
Real numbers
"OTA commission was our biggest fixed cost: €18k/month on €120k revenue. With Vocito's direct booking engine: 40% of bookings now direct. Per month €7k less commission. Plus: last-minute room-filling brought extra €3k/mo."
