Recover staff hours
Pulse AI handles the repetitive 80% of guest questions, freeing your front desk for the 20% that need a human. A typical 25-room hotel reclaims around 770 staff hours every year.
Pulse AI handles every guest conversation on WhatsApp, from booking inquiry to express checkout. Built natively inside your hotel PMS, so your team gets back the hours they lose to repetitive questions, missed bookings and front desk queues.
Pulse AI is not a chatbot. It is a guest communication engine that recovers staff time, captures revenue your team is too busy to chase, and removes the queues that quietly damage your reviews.
