Your time is money

Gaps filled by targeting the right guests at the right time.
Housekeeping that runs on time
Check-out alerts and room-ready updates with no radio chaos.

These are examples. Build a custom agent for any job you repeat.

And hundreds of other tasks you do manually..

An agent can take a lot off your team's plate. Take a look below to see the time and cost you could save by adding AI agents to your Hospitality team's day.

Your Agent wakes up Automatically whenever something happens

WhenA new reservation enquiry arrivesfires within about a minute

The agent automatically

The moment a booking request lands in your inbox or OTA portal, the agent reads it within about a minute, checks availability in your system, drafts a personalised reply with dates, room options, and pricing, and logs the lead. Every reply waits for your one-pass approval before it reaches the guest, so the first property to respond stops winning by default.

Trust & control

You stay in control

An AI agent works inside your real guest-facing systems, so staying in control matters even more. Actionist is built to be supervised: you decide how much each agent does on its own, you approve what reaches a guest, and every action is logged for you to review.

You set the supervision

Choose how much each agent does on its own, from drafting for your approval to handling trusted routine jobs. Anything that affects a guest account or booking always asks first, and that cannot be turned off.

Approve from your phone

Agents reach you over Telegram or Slack, so you approve a reply or an action with one tap from anywhere on the property.

Every run is logged

Each run is recorded step by step, with screenshots and a full transcript, so you can see exactly what the agent read and did.

Your data stays yours

Guest data is encrypted in a vault and never shown again, memory stays on your own machine, and you can self-host Actionist on your own server.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Will it actually reply to reservation enquiries fast enough to make a difference?

Yes, and speed is exactly the point. The agent watches your inbox and OTA portals and picks up a new reservation enquiry within about a minute, whatever the hour. It reads the request, checks availability in your system, drafts a personalised reply with dates and options, and logs the lead. You teach it your tone and your qualifying questions once, and until you trust it every reply waits for your approval. The first property to respond to a group enquiry or a late-night booking request usually wins it.

We use a property management system and OTA back-office that nothing else integrates with. Will it work with those?

Almost certainly. Actionist operates your tools the way a person does, by reading the screen and clicking, typing, and navigating, so it reaches software with no API at all: your PMS, your OTA back-office, your yield management platform, and the restaurant reservation system you have been using for years. Where an app offers a clean connection it uses it; where it does not, the desktop agent simply works the screen. You do not rip anything out. Screen automation runs on the desktop app.

Will it message a guest or post a review reply without me seeing it first?

Not unless you decide it should. By default every guest reply, review response, and upsell email is drafted and waits for your approval. Approval Modes let you move at your own pace, from suggest (always shows you the draft), to ask each time, to a guarded auto for trusted routine jobs like sending a pre-arrival confirmation. Anything that affects a guest booking or account always asks first, which cannot be turned off. Agents reach you on Telegram or Slack so you can approve with one tap from anywhere on the property.

What happens to reservation enquiries that arrive at night or during a busy service?

That is when most bookings are lost to a faster competitor. On the desktop app an agent works while the app is open. To cover evenings, nights, and weekends unattended, including the late-night group enquiry that lands at 11pm, you move that agent to the hosted cloud runtime on a paid plan and it keeps watching your inboxes and drafting replies while your team is off the floor. You stay in approval mode either way, so nothing reaches a guest without the sign-off you have set.

Is this here to replace front-of-house and reception staff?

No. It takes over the admin, not the hospitality. The work it removes is the part of the shift your team already resents: typing individual reservation confirmations, watching three review platforms for a new comment, building the housekeeping schedule by hand, and chasing event deposits. When that is handled, your team is free for the moments that earn loyalty, a warm welcome, a personalised recommendation, a problem turned into a great story. A small property ends up delivering the attentiveness of a much larger one.

Can I build an agent around the way our property actually runs?

Yes. The teams and tasks shown here are a starting point, not the limit. You can build a custom AI agent for hospitality around any job your team repeats: chasing housekeeping room-ready status, sending a specific pre-arrival package to guests who book spa treatments, coordinating the daily chef briefing, or running the weekly linen count against the laundry order. You describe the job in plain English, tell it which apps to use and when to run, and it handles that work on a schedule or when something triggers it.

Is our guest data kept private and handled securely?

Your data stays yours. Guest information and credentials are encrypted in a vault and never shown again, the agent's memory of how your property works stays on your own machine, and your data is never used to train models. Every action an agent takes is logged step by step with screenshots, so you can see exactly what it read and did with a guest's details. If you need everything on your own infrastructure, you can self-host Actionist on your own server.

Does our team need to be technical, and how quickly can we get started?

No code, and most properties have their first agent running the same day. If you can brief a new team member, you can brief an agent: you describe the job in plain English. Connecting your inbox, your review platform, or your messaging app is a guided click-and-approve step that takes about a minute. You keep the agent in approval mode while you build trust, then hand over the routine work once it has earned it. The first agent most hospitality teams start with is one that handles review replies or sends pre-arrival messages.

What does it cost, and is it worth it for a small hotel or restaurant?

It is built to pay for itself in hours back and revenue added. A single agent typically saves a team five or more hours of admin per person per week, and the pre-arrival upsell alone tends to generate meaningful incremental revenue from guests who would have said yes if only someone had asked. What you pay scales with how many agents you run and whether any run unattended in the cloud, so most properties start with one agent on the biggest time-sink and add more as the saving is clear.
