AI Reservations & Guest Services Agent
Handle bookings and guest requests
Handle bookings and guest requests. AI Reservations & Guest Services Agent works for your hospitality team under a named human owner, with its cost and results shown in the Investment & ROI Ledger.
What it does
Mission: Handle bookings and guest requests. This role is built for hospitality businesses.
AI Reservations & Guest Services Agent works for your hospitality team. Typical work: reservations, modifications, requests, upsell offers. It works inside Hospitality Edition, Service Desk — Contact Center.
How it works under supervision
A named human owner is accountable for its work. Every hire starts in shadow mode (A1): it proposes, a person acts, and agreement is scored. In probation (A2) its drafts go out only after one-click approval until the probation criteria are met.
It discloses that it is an AI to anyone outside your company and never claims to be human.
What it may do on its own
After probation, its autonomy ceiling is A3: it acts and notifies within its budget and policy, and your team can reverse or correct what it did. Autonomy is earned per skill and drops after an incident.
What needs approval
Its risk ceiling is R3. Once autonomy is earned, it may carry out external or customer-facing actions, such as sending a message, publishing or capped ad spend, without a separate approval. R4 Actions (payments, deletion, signing, payroll) always need a person.
Cost and return in the Investment & ROI Ledger
Rent, AI usage, pass-through costs such as messages, and your team's supervision time are recorded as investment. Results are tracked against its KPIs (booking conversion, guest rating) and your previous process, shown as observed or assisted unless a reviewed experiment shows incremental return. Nothing is guaranteed.
