How hotels track competitor pricing across multiple booking sites

Imagine you're managing hotel revenue and find your Las Vegas listings priced 30% higher than competitors on Booking.com. It's been that way for a week—bookings lost to Circus Circus. Sound familiar?

Hotels lose millions this way every year. With 100+ properties across multiple platforms, manual price tracking can't keep up. Spreadsheets fail, offshore teams miss changes, and by the time you catch an issue, it’s too late.

Browse AI turns this chaos into automated competitor monitoring—so you can protect revenue before it slips away.

The challenge: Manual price monitoring at scale

Hotel revenue managers face an impossible task when tracking competitor pricing manually:

  • Platform fragmentation - each OTA displays prices differently, making apples-to-apples comparisons nearly impossible.
  • Time-sensitive accuracy - prices change hourly, but manual checks happen weekly at best, creating dangerous blind spots
  • Room type complexity - matching "Casino Tower King Room" on your site to "King Room - Tower" on competitors requires constant manual mapping.
  • Multi-currency headaches - international properties need USD and EUR pricing tracked simultaneously.
  • Scale limitations - monitoring 100 hotels across 5 platforms means 500 daily checks - impossible without automation.

The solution: Automated competitive intelligence with Browse AI
