Hospitality Operations Automation

Hospitality Operations,
Fully Automated

Built for Airbnb hosts and independent vacation rental operators.
Checking availability, answering the same questions over and over, chasing the inquiries you missed, and figuring out which channel actually brings guests — the work that used to need a person on standby. We connect your Airbnb calendar, KakaoTalk, and Google Sheets so it runs on its own.

Why

Built for these four situations

Every host repeats these tasks several times a day. Each one is small; together they take the whole day.

“Is that date open?”

Every inquiry means opening the Airbnb calendar, checking minimum-stay rules and peak-season rates, then writing the reply by hand.

The same questions, forever

Check-in time, parking, Wi-Fi password, barbecue, pets, nearby restaurants. You type the same answer every time.

Inquiries that leak away

Messages that arrived overnight, questions you never answered, guests who left a phone number and vanished. Nothing is recorded.

No idea what marketing works

Blog, Instagram, Airbnb, KakaoTalk channel — you cannot tell which one brings guests, so you cannot tell where to spend effort.

Demo

Ask it yourself, instead of reading about it

The chat below runs the same engine that answers guests at Seorak Farm, grounded in the same FAQ knowledge base the owner maintains.

Architecture

How it fits together

Wherever a guest arrives from, the request passes through one automation engine — and the result lands in two places you already check: your KakaoTalk and your Google Sheet.

Guest entry points

KakaoTalk channelConsultation inside the chat window. No app install, no sign-up.
Official websiteLive availability calendar, inquiry form, floating chat and call buttons.
Airbnb · blog · InstagramEvery outbound link carries a channel tag so the source is identifiable.

What the operator receives

KakaoTalk alertsBooking requests instantly. Unanswered questions as a periodic summary.
Google Sheets as the ledgerFAQ · booking requests · unanswered · full transcripts · click log · monthly rollup. A familiar spreadsheet is the database.
Commands in chatType “stats” or “unanswered” in the channel and the figures come straight back.
SMS inquiriesGuests can also send an inquiry straight from the website into your SMS app.

Daily Operation

Three things left for the operator

Everything else runs by itself. There is no new program to learn and no app to install.

01

Read the alert

Booking requests arrive on your KakaoTalk the moment they come in. You only need to call or text the guest to confirm.

02

Fill in one row

When the “missed questions” digest arrives, write the answer into the FAQ sheet. From then on the bot answers it.

03

Ask in chat

Type a command in your channel whenever you want the figures.

stats → today · week · month · all-time
unanswered → missed questions
my id → your admin identifier

10-day buildQuote on request

Process

Delivery — 7 days

Once the material is ready it takes a week. The order matters: if an earlier step's material is late, everything after it slips.

  1. Day 1
    Intake and assessment We collect the business name, logo, contact details, address, photos, rates and policies, whether a Kakao channel and domain already exist, and the Airbnb calendar address. Your existing guest notes and the questions you get by phone become the seed of the bot's knowledge. Needed: 15–30 photos, rate and policy documents, 20+ recurring questions
  2. Days 2–3
    Knowledge base and content We create the Google Sheet in the owner's name and build the FAQ out to 40+ entries, then organise website copy and photos.
  3. Days 4–5
    Website build, deployment, domain The site goes live with domain and HTTPS. The availability calendar is connected to the Airbnb feed, and search / AI-search markup plus click analytics are added.
  4. Day 6
    KakaoTalk integration We create a dedicated Kakao app and connect the bot to your channel, including alert delivery, automatic token refresh and the expiry-warning scheduler. Needed: the Kakao account that should receive alerts
  5. Day 7
    Acceptance and handover We test 30 real questions and verify the whole path from booking request to sheet entry to KakaoTalk alert. You receive a one-page guide: how to edit the FAQ sheet, the chat commands, and how to read the alerts.
  6. Ongoing
    Operation and expansion The unanswered digest guides what to add to the knowledge base, so the automatic answer rate climbs with use. Fault detection and token-expiry warnings keep running on their own.

Case Study

Deployment

What follows is not a proposal. It is a live system taking guest inquiries right now.

CASE 01 · 1st deployment

Seorak Farm Private Stay — official website

Yangyang, Gangwon-do · private log cabin with a 3,300 m² lawn garden · up to 12 guests · seorakfarm.com

A property that had depended entirely on Airbnb widened its booking path to an official website and a KakaoTalk channel. A live availability calendar, an AI concierge backed by a Google Sheets knowledge base, instant booking alerts and per-channel traffic counting have run without downtime since April 2026.

24h

Automated response in chat

Same engine, different industry. The consultation, knowledge-base and analytics structure is not tied to hospitality. Across industries, only the knowledge-base entries and the intake fields change. For florists we are extending it into automatic dispatch with a KakaoTalk approval gate. See every deployment →

FAQ

Before you decide

Could the bot give a wrong answer?

It is restricted to what is written in the Google Sheet knowledge base. Facts that are not there are not invented — the bot says the operator needs to confirm and logs the question as unanswered. Numbers such as prices and times must be quoted exactly as written, and comparisons with competing properties or anything commercially unhelpful are prohibited.

Can I edit the answers myself?

Yes — that is the point of the system. Edit one row in the Google Sheet and the bot's answer changes within about two minutes. Rate increases, wording changes and new amenities are all handled without calling a developer.

Could an Airbnb booking and a website booking collide?

The website calendar reads your Airbnb feed and blocks dates that are already booked, reflected within five minutes. When you take a direct booking, block those dates on the platform calendar and both sides stay in sync on the same source.

What if I do not have a KakaoTalk channel?

We create one during onboarding. The channel, domain and Google Sheet are all registered in the owner's name, so the assets and the data stay with you even after the engagement ends.

Will costs jump if inquiries spike?

There is no database cost (Google Sheets does the job) and AI cost per conversation is under about one Korean won. Volume does not cause a cost spike — most of the monthly fee is fixed cloud hosting.

How is guest personal data handled?

Phone numbers and e-mail addresses are masked before being stored. Booking details are saved in the Google Sheet owned by the business, and intake endpoints can only be called from allowed domains. Guests are also told that their information is not retained in the chat.

Can a non-hospitality business use this?

Yes. The consultation, knowledge-base, intake and analytics structure is industry-agnostic — only the knowledge-base entries and the intake fields change. It fits any business with repetitive inquiries that takes bookings or applications: academies, clinics, studios, experience venues, practice ranges. The first deployment in a new sector is agreed case by case, since the intake fields have to be rebuilt.

I already have a website. Do I have to replace it?

You can keep it and add only the KakaoTalk consultation and channel analytics. The live availability calendar and search / AI-search readiness do require changes to the site structure, so we assess your current site first and then agree the scope.

Tell us about your property

Let us know the number of rooms, how bookings reach you today, and roughly how many inquiries you get a day — we will come back with the right configuration and a schedule.
