Instagram assistant that turns DMs into direct bookings
Set up for your business, in your own accounts.
An Instagram assistant that answers guests' DMs in seconds, straight from the booking calendar. It quotes the direct price, holds the dates and sends a secure payment link.
01The problem
Instagram DMs that never become bookings.
Instagram DMs
A guest finds the lake house on Instagram and asks in the DMs: is July 18 to 21 free for six? The assistant checks the booking calendar, gives the price, says yes to their dogs, holds the dates and sends a secure payment link. They book direct, with no platform fee.
02How it works
Every answer comes from the booking calendar.
Dates, beds, the price and the house rules are read from the property's own records, so a guest never hears a guess.

03What you get
What your business gets.
Every DM answered in seconds, day or night
Dates and prices that match the booking calendar
Bookings taken direct, without a platform fee
Dates held only while the guest pays
When it gets hard
The dates are taken
It says so at once and offers the nearest open dates, or another home you manage.
Two guests want the same dates
The first to say yes gets the hold. The other hears the dates are on hold and is offered the next open ones.
The guest doesn't pay
One friendly reminder before the hold runs out. Then the dates open again.
We set it up on your own Instagram business account, with your own calendar, rates and house rules. You check its answers and approve it before any guest messages it.
We build it on the property management software you use, such as Hostaway, so dates and prices always match. Most other systems can be connected too.
The guest pays on a secure Stripe checkout page, never in the chat. Card details never pass through the assistant.
Yes. The same assistant can answer Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp, from the same calendar and with the same rules.
