Connect your hotel to AI platforms
Connect AI puts your hotel inside ChatGPT and makes your hotel discoverable across every major AI assistant, with verified content, live rates, and direct booking links. More direct bookings. Zero Commissions. Full Control.
ChatGPT has 900 million weekly users, and travelers are already asking AI where to stay. Today, OTAs dominate those answers. Your hotel? Invisible unless you act.
Every day without direct presence means lost opportunities. The hotels that show up in AI search today train the recommendations of tomorrow.
Connect AI brings your hotel into AI-powered conversations, connecting your brand directly with guests.

Own your AI presence
Track your hotel's visibility across AI platforms. Benchmark competitors. Act on insights to get your direct channel recommended by AI instead of sending guests to OTAs.
Everything your hotel needs for AI discovery

Direct booking app in ChatGPT
Get premium placement in The Hotels Network app — the industry's first direct booking app for hotels in ChatGPT. Your property appears with rich, hotel-verified content and images that adapt to every search. Live rates are updated in real time, and a direct booking link sends travelers straight to your booking engine. Zero commissions. No intermediary.

Frequently Asked Questions
Connect AI builds a single, verified data profile for your hotel — combining your website content, brand story, rates, availability and reviews into one trusted source. This powers everything: the direct booking app, GEO, and AI Visibility Insights. Every AI platform that queries your hotel has access to accurate, structured, hotel-verified data instead of scraped OTA summaries or outdated third-party content.
Checkout within ChatGPT is not available at the moment. Travelers click a direct booking link that takes them to your hotel's own website to complete the reservation. The booking happens on your booking engine, giving you full customer data and zero commission costs.
As part of Connect AI, GEO is a combination of technical setup and content optimization. It includes implementing recognized web standards that signal to AI platforms how to interpret your content, and creating hotel knowledge content formatted so AI can quote them directly. Once set up, it runs in the background with no ongoing action required from your team.
Connect AI monitors your hotel's organic presence across ChatGPT and Gemini. It automatically generates tracking queries based on your hotel's own attributes (location, star rating, amenities, audience) simulating how real travelers search regularly. No manual setup is required.
Lighter than you'd expect. Lighthouse automatically gathers your hotel's information from sources that already exist: your website, OTA listings, reviews and brand content. By the time you're involved, your hotel profile is already pre-filled. You can then review the profile for accuracy, fill any gaps specific to your property, and optionally upload supporting materials.
For GEO your hotel's content is automatically structured into the formats AI platforms read and trust. Technical implementation to connect these to your website involves just a couple of steps.
