AI-Responder for HostAway – AI Duh AI Duh AI-Responder for HostAway is a Chrome extension that dramatically speeds up guest communications by providing AI-powered responses. It draws context from three sources: a property-specific knowledge document (up to 800 words), guest reservation data, and previous chat history to ensure continuity.
Key aspects:
- It leverages high-quality AI models (OpenAI GPT-4o and GPT NeoX 20B) to generate natural, empathetic, and reassuring messages.
- The system is designed to match the tone and details appropriate for host-guest interactions, including issue handling, check-in details, and housekeeping notes.
- The AI-generated responses can be provided to guests as-is in many scenarios, reducing editing time, with the option to prefill messages for efficiency.
How it works:
- Three data sources guide the AI:
- Property knowledge document (up to ~800 words) to answer property-specific questions.
- Reservation data (guest name, dates, check-in/out times, guests, pets, total paid, etc.).
- Previous chat history to maintain conversation continuity.
- The AI adapts to guest inquiries and can handle typical host tasks such as check-in instructions, amenity details, and troubleshooting.
Quality and pricing:
- In beta, the tool uses state-of-the-art AI models, delivering high-quality responses that often require no manual edits (scores around 4–5 in internal tests).
- Pricing for the Chrome extension is expected to be around $95/month per listing after beta, with current beta users enjoying a 14-day free trial and a lifetime price lock of $49/month per listing (up to 300 queries per listing).
- Mobile support, broader platform compatibility, and additional browser support are in development with updates planned for early 2025.
