The same 20 questions arrive via WhatsApp, OTA messages, and phone calls before every guest arrives. Conduit's AI agent responds within 60 seconds of booking, delivers check-in instructions the day before arrival, and confirms access codes on check-in day. Guests arrive informed, and front desks stay quiet.
Maintenance complaints, early checkout coordination, upgrade offers. These conversations happen after the guest is already in the room, well past where any kiosk can help. Conduit handles in-stay support across every channel, routing requests to the right team member with full context.
Kiosks operate 24/7, but they can't answer the call at 2am or resolve the access code failure. Conduit's voice agents pick up every call, handle access code resets, and escalate only when human judgment is required. The Lauderdale Hotel unlocked $500,000 in asset value by cutting response times and reducing overnight staffing needs.
Physical kiosks wait for the guest to arrive at the property. Conduit reaches out proactively before arrival, during the stay, and after checkout. Early check-in offers, upsell opportunities, and departure reminders all happen automatically based on booking data and PMS availability.
Within 60 seconds of booking, Conduit's agent sends a welcome message with property details and answers common pre-arrival questions. The AI pulls data from your PMS and responds in the guest's language across SMS, WhatsApp, email, or OTA threads.
Guests receive detailed check-in instructions, parking information, and property access details the day before arrival. Early check-in offers trigger automatically based on PMS availability. Guests can request early access directly in the conversation thread.
Access codes or digital keys reach the guest's phone automatically on check-in day. They walk straight to the room without stopping at the front desk. For properties using smart locks or keyless entry, Conduit integrates with your access control system.
Maintenance requests, amenity questions, and service inquiries route to the AI first. Simple requests resolve instantly; complex issues escalate to your team with full context. Voice agents handle phone calls around the clock.
After checkout, review requests and satisfaction surveys trigger automatically. Cash Flow Street hit 96% automation with 1-minute response times. Feedback loops back into the agent's knowledge base, and agents improve handling over time.
Physical kiosks require capital expenditure, installation, and ongoing maintenance. Firmware updates, hardware replacement, and support contracts add recurring costs. Multi-property operators need one unit per location, so the outlay scales linearly with portfolio size.
Conduit is software, so this setup does not require a physical kiosk. Ask the sales team which plan, integrations, and usage terms fit your check-in workflow.

Booking confirmations, check-in instructions, parking details, early check-in requests. These conversations happen before the guest arrives, and kiosks can't touch them. Conduit's AI responds within 60 seconds of booking and handles every pre-arrival question automatically.
The 2am access code issue, the last-minute booking question, the maintenance request that comes in by phone. Kiosks don't answer calls. Conduit's voice agents pick up every call, qualify intent, and handle requests around the clock.
Review requests, satisfaction surveys, re-booking offers. Kiosks can't touch post-stay communication. Conduit triggers post-stay workflows automatically. Guests receive follow-up messages at the right moment, and your team sees response rates improve without manual effort.

Who Conduit is for, what it does, and how to get started.
For the full self-service experience including physical ID scanning and key card dispensing, kiosks still serve a role. For operators whose primary goal is reducing front desk communication volume and staffing costs, Conduit's digital check-in covers most of the same ground without hardware procurement. The check-in queue shrinks because guests arrive informed and ready, not because they used a machine in the lobby.
