Key Capabilities
- Centralized conversations: Bring Airbnb, Booking.com, WhatsApp, SMS, email, and phone into one inbox, with EnsoAI replying, resolving, and advancing every conversation thread around the clock.
- Custom workflows: Build automation workflows without code that are triggered by real guest events, branch on custom conditions, and reach guests through the right channel.
- Policies and knowledge base: Train the AI with business rules, listings, policies, brand tone, and the real-time guest journey so it applies them correctly without repetition. It supports running real guest scenarios, coaching EnsoAI in the moment, and turning instructions into one-click-accepted policies.
- Boarding Pass guest app: Verify, guide, and upsell guests. Confirm guest identity, share the required information, and present the right upsell at the right time. Features include digital check-in, adding to Apple Wallet, and escalation to a human when necessary.
- Two operating modes, Copilot and Autopilot: In Copilot mode, the AI drafts replies and suggests next steps, and the team reviews and sends them with one click; in Autopilot mode, it runs the complete guest journey fully autonomously and escalates to the team only when the rules require it.
- Analytics and marketing: Track response times, upsell revenue, and guest sentiment in real time; turn guest data into segmented campaigns, direct bookings, and repeat stays.
- Multi-brand and permissions: Provide a branded Boarding Pass for each property, managed centrally; provide franchise-level permissions and granular roles.
- AI sentiment analysis: Detect dissatisfaction before guests leave a public review.
- Upsell reporting: See which upsells convert and invest more in them.
- Trust and safety: Guest verification, checking ID and automatically reporting to authorities; through deposits or damage waiversprotection for every stay; automated guest registration, reporting guest details to local agencies, and maintaining compliance in regulated markets.
