Overview

The client relied heavily on OTA platforms for bookings, resulting in high commission fees and limited pricing control. Slow response times negatively affected platform ranking, while direct booking channels remained underdeveloped.

AI Avenue implemented a bespoke omni-channel automation system to improve response speed, strengthen ranking signals, and build a sustainable direct booking ecosystem.
