HostBuddy AI enhances guest communication for short-term rental hosts through cutting-edge AI technology. HostBuddy AI automates responses to guest messages, troubleshoots common issues, and integrates with property management systems to enable automated responses directly through existing communication channels. In addition to providing automated responses, HostBuddy AI offers key metrics on your communication, enables intelligent templated messaging powered by AI, and tracks guest-reported issues at your properties to keep you informed of items requiring your attention.

  • Send messages to guests on different OTAs (such as Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com) through their PMS integration based on Minut events.

  • Use AI technology to tailor each message, creating more personalized communication.

  • Send follow-up messages to guests who have not responded to initial messages.

  • Allow HostBuddy AI to take over guest communication after initial contact.

  • Set advanced variables to specify which guests will receive notifications.
