Bring HotPilot to
🏨
in your market
Partner with HotPilot and earn recurring revenue selling and implementing the conversational booking platform that's redefining how independent hotels and rentals win against the OTAs.
Why your customers need what HotPilot built
The hospitality tech stack most hotels run on today was designed for the world before generative AI, mobile first guest behavior, and a market structurally dependent on OTAs.
Booking engines and PMS platforms built a decade ago have been incrementally updated - but the fundamentals have not changed. The result is painful and measurable across markets:
Direct booking conversion 30-50% below where it could be with a modern native experience
18-25% of gross revenue to OTAs because direct does not work well enough
Managers spending 12+ hours per week on manual rate, channel, and inventory work that AI can now do
Local language, payment, and compliance requirements treated as edge cases by global vendors
The four emerging-tech advantages partners sell with
Conversational booking engine
The first booking platform with built-in generative AI guest dialogue. Guests ask "is there a quiet room with a view for two adults for around €120?" and book in three steps instead of twelve. Real conversion lift, measured against the booking engine your customer is replacing - not a chatbot bolted onto the side of a legacy widget.
Local market depth, without the compromises
Multi-language support, configurable fiscalization and invoicing flows, local payment integrations, and connectors for regional OTAs. We design HotPilot to be deployed in any market and we work with partners to add the local hooks their market requires - not just the ones a US-headquartered vendor cared to ship.
Revenue attribution that proves ROI
Every booking tracked from first touch to checkout. Your customers see exactly which channel, campaign, or referral drove the reservation. Partners can demonstrate measurable value at renewal time - not vague promises about "better guest experience."
Modern architecture, fast deployment
Cloud-native platform that deploys in days, not months. No legacy database migrations, no on-premise hardware. Partners spend time selling and configuring, not wrestling with infrastructure. Updates ship automatically; your customers always run the latest version.
The opportunity your partnership opens up
There are over 700,000 hotels and licensed accommodation providers worldwide, and the vast majority still run on tech stacks designed a decade ago. The upgrade cycle to AI-native hospitality tech is starting now. The partners who arrive first will own the relationships that follow.
Choose your partnership model
HotPilot supports three tiers of partnership. Pick the one that fits your team, your customer base, and how much of the customer journey you want to own.

Who it's for:
Hospitality consultants, revenue managers, OTA advisors, travel sales consultants - anyone who already has the trusted relationship with hotel owners and managers and can spot the right intro.
How it works:
You introduce a qualified hotel that fits HotPilot's profile (10–500 rooms, planning a booking engine or PMS upgrade in the next six months). Our team takes the demo, runs the sales cycle, and keeps you in the loop. When the deal closes, you earn.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our platform is designed to simplify your workflow and boost productivity. It adapts to your needs, helping you achieve more with every feature.
Online
We lead with a generative-AI booking experience instead of bolting one on, ship deep revenue-attribution analytics out of the box, and treat local-market integrations (languages, payments, fiscalization) as a first-class product capability rather than a long roadmap item. For partners, this means a product story your customers cannot get from the legacy incumbents - not a me-too pitch.
Online
HotPilot is available globally and we are actively recruiting partners across regions. We assess each market jointly during the Apply step - including any localization (language, payments, fiscalization) that may need to be sequenced with you. Most successful partners have strong local relationships and an existing or planned hospitality practice in the market they want to cover.
Online
Yes. Referral Partners regularly graduate to Solution Partner once they build delivery capacity. Solution Partner partners move to Strategic once they meet volume and technical thresholds. We design the program to reward growth.
Online
No fees for any tier. We invest in partners; partners invest the time to certify and the resources to sell and deliver.
Online
Referral Partners see their first paid intros within 45 to 90 days. Solution Partner partners typically close first deals within 60 to 120 days of certification. Strategic Partners engagements are roadmap-driven and usually kick off with one or two anchor customers.
Online
Referral Partners introduce; HotPilot owns the customer. Solution Partners own the relationship and first-level support; HotPilot owns the product. Strategic Partners partners own the full relationship including deeper support tiers, with HotPilot as the underlying product and escalation.
