At Resly, we're all about making life easier for property managers. We know that time is your most valuable asset, and guest communication - especially across multiple booking platforms - can be one of the most time-consuming aspects of running a successful accommodation business. That’s why we’re excited to announce our integration with HostBuddy AI, an advanced AI-powered messaging solution designed to automate guest communications seamlessly within Resly.
HostBuddy AI automates guest communication for short-term rental hosts by combining proactive, end-to-end guest communication workflows with intelligent guest support powered by advanced AI. Built by experienced Superhosts, it delivers seamless, personalised guest experiences without compromising quality. HostBuddy handles the full guest messaging process from first inquiry through checkout and beyond, helping hosts consistently improve reviews while ensuring every guest interaction is covered.
With automated Journeys, HostBuddy proactively guides guests through each stage of their stay while coordinating check-in communication, follow-ups, and revenue-driving opportunities. Hosts maintain full control with flexible coverage scheduling and tone customisation to match their brand voice. External channels like WhatsApp and OpenPhone connect into a unified inbox, while action items detected in guest conversations are surfaced via Slack, email, or text to keep teams aligned.
Onboarding is effortless, pulling listing details and historical conversation data directly from your PMS. HostBuddy also enhances direct booking websites with an embeddable chat widget to answer pre-booking questions and improve conversion. By streamlining communication, maximising revenue opportunities, and reducing manual workload, HostBuddy frees hosts to focus on growing their business. Welcome to the future of hosting.
HostBuddy AI connects directly with Resly, accessing key property and guest data to deliver smart, context-aware responses. Whether it’s check-in instructions, WiFi details, or troubleshooting a common issue, HostBuddy can handle it—allowing you to spend less time answering routine questions and more time focusing on business growth.
Once set up, HostBuddy will respond to guest messages based on your preferences. If a message needs human input, the system alerts you so you can step in when necessary. This means fewer late-night interruptions, faster responses, and happier, better-informed guests—all with less effort from you.
The Resly + HostBuddy AI integration is a game-changer for property managers. Here’s why:
🔹 More Time, Less Admin – No more manually responding to repetitive guest questions. HostBuddy takes care of them, freeing you up for more important tasks.
🔹 Consistent, Professional Communication – Every guest receives timely, accurate responses, no matter what time of day (or night) they reach out.
🔹 Multi-Platform Support – Whether guests book via Airbnb, VRBO, or direct channels, HostBuddy ensures every message received through Resly gets a response.
🔹 Improved Efficiency – The ability to automate and schedule responses means smoother operations and fewer distractions.
If you’re a Resly user looking to streamline communication, improve efficiency, and take the hassle out of guest messaging, now is the perfect time to integrate HostBuddy AI.
