What Velros AI runs

We gather signals about bookings, check-in guidance, change requests, and review management from across your channels, remove duplicates, and prioritize them.

Lodging and venue operations

Bookings, check-in guidance, change requests, and reviews come together in one place. A guest gets a fast answer at every step.

  • Occupancy rate and booking conversion rate
  • Cancellation and refund handling and dispute rate

An inquiry like this, handled like this.

The requests that arrive at Lodging and venue operations every day, kept on one screen along with what to confirm and what to improve next.

The order a person kept by hand, moved over as it was.

  1. Check availability Check whole-unit and room availability by date in the booking calendar and note peak-season rates and the barbecue (grill rental) option.
  2. Check-in guidance Give the 2pm check-in standard, and for late arrivals prepare to send the keypad code and parking location in advance.
  3. Calculate the refund Apply the cancellation timing to the property's cancellation policy (peak-season weekend) to draft the refund amount.
  4. Approve Confirming the refund amount and bank refund, extra-guest and pet fees, and a damage-deposit charge proceed after a person confirms.

What you can see

The original messages, files, staff edits, and approval-hold reasons from Google Business Profile bookings, OTAs (Airbnb, Booking.com, and the like), your messaging channel, and phone all stay on record, and we use them as the basis for next week's improvements.

What stops

Rates and refunds, booking changes, complaint handling, changes to personal data, and bulk sends pause for your sign-off first.

The channels stay. Only the work a person confirms is separated out.

Occupancy rate and booking conversion rate · Cancellation and refund handling and dispute rate · Review rating and response rate

What a person confirms runs on a single thread.

Rather than adding another screen, we sort the work arriving on the channels you use and separate out only the decisions a person should see.

The same channels

Without adding new tools, we layer Velros AI on top of Google Business Profile bookings, OTAs (Airbnb, Booking.com, and the like), your messaging channel, and phone that you already use. We build the screens, the approval queue, and the reports you need together, and keep fixing them while it runs.

Staff edits and the reasons work was held get gathered into next week's operating rule.

A person's time

Less repeat checking, and more of the day on the decisions and the growth that matter.

In depth

While somebody answers the phone, the kitchen waits

Inquiries in food and lodging arrive at exactly the busiest hour. Bookings, changes, cancellations, group requests and reviews land on top of service. When the person who should be in front of a guest is on the phone, that hour is billed twice.

From a booking request to a visit

  1. Gather bookings from every door

    Platform, message and phone note requests line up in one queue, with duplicates removed.

  2. Check availability

    Seats or rooms and remaining slots narrow the options. Groups and exceptions go to a person.

  3. Message before the visit

    Parking, allergies, the cancellation rule, the arrival time. Timed to when no-shows actually happen.

  4. Cancellations and no-shows

    A cancellation is answered from the published rule; charges and deposit refunds wait for approval.

  5. Reviews and returning guests

    The moment to ask is chosen from the visit record, and anything with a complaint in it is flagged.

What a person confirms

Group bookings and private hire
Revenue and operations are both at stake.
Charges and deposit refunds
Money moves, so it queues for approval.
Allergy and dietary questions
An answer about safety leaves only after the kitchen has confirmed it.
Replying to a bad review
It is published. A person chooses the sentence.

What differs by market

The duty
Licensing and consumer-protection duties differ by country and often by state. We confirm which ones bind you, and their deadlines, during the operating diagnosis, and they become dated items in the calendar rather than a paragraph on a page.
The deadline
Every obligation gets an owner and an alert counted back from how long the preparation takes, not from the day it is due.
The evidence
What was filed, when, by whom, and against which rule stays in the record, so a change of staff does not restart the knowledge.

What restaurants and hotels ask

Do we have to change booking platform?
No. Bookings from the platform you use, the phone and messaging arrive in one queue, and duplicates and clashes are caught first.
Can no-shows be stopped automatically?
Not stopped, but reduced. The reminder is timed to when they happen. Charging for one is a person's decision.
Will it answer reviews on its own?
It drafts. Publishing waits for a person because the words are public. A complaint that recurs becomes next week's standard.

We'll find what to cut first in Lodging and venue operations, together.

Where the inquiries land, the order your staff check them in, and the rules a person applies last, laid out as one day of work.
