The product

More than a chatbot.
A whole concierge stack.

Conversations happen over WhatsApp — that's just the front door. Behind it: an owner inbox, live analytics, and a graceful handover when something needs a human.

Guests book where they already chat

No app downloads, no website forms. Your guests simply send a WhatsApp message and your AI concierge handles the rest — from availability to confirmation.

Run your property, not your inbox

While your AI handles the repetitive questions, you can focus on what matters — creating memorable guest experiences.

How it works

Up and running
in two weeks,
not a quarter.

You answer a few questions about your property. We do everything else — from the API setup to the persona, the pricing rules to the language packs.

01

Tell us about your property

A 7-step intake covers rooms, rates, policies, the area, and the voice you want your AI to speak in.

≈ 12 min · once-off
02

We build your AI concierge

We name it, train it on your knowledge, and connect it to your WhatsApp Business number. You review and approve.

Why owners switch

The moments
that cost you bookings.

Every guesthouse loses business in the same quiet, predictable ways. Here's where AgentFlo earns its keep.

The midnight problem

A guest messages at 11:40 pm

Most owners only see it at 7 am — and by then the guest has booked the place down the road. AgentFlo replied in under four seconds and held the room.

The same five questions

"What time is breakfast?"

Rates, check-in times, directions to the gate, the Wi-Fi password. The repetitive 80% never reaches your phone — so your day belongs to your guests, not your inbox.

The language gap

A guest writes in isiZulu

Your concierge reads the language from the first word and answers in kind — Zulu, Xhosa, Afrikaans, all eleven. No guest is ever left waiting on a translation.

New in 2026 — be one of the first South African guesthouses to put a front desk on every guest's phone.

Questions

Things owners
always ask.

Quick answers to the questions that come up most. Anything else, we're a message away.

Talk to us · usually under 10 min

Still have a question? Send a WhatsApp — our concierge handles the easy ones, and loops in a human for the rest.

Message us on WhatsApp

How long does setup take?

+

From a completed intake form, most clients are live in 7–14 business days. We handle the WhatsApp Business API connection, the persona, and the knowledge base.

Which WhatsApp plan do I need?

+

None. We use the Meta WhatsApp Business API, which is free for service messages. We walk you through the number connection during onboarding.

Can the bot take bookings directly?

+

It guides guests through availability and pricing, collects their details, then notifies you to confirm. Booking capture is included from the Growth plan up.

What happens when it doesn't know something?

+

It says so — politely. It tells the guest someone will follow up, and pings you on WhatsApp with the full thread so you can pick it up cleanly.

Can I update its knowledge later?

+

Yes. New specials, room changes, seasonal info, policy updates — request anytime. Growth and Multi-Property plans include monthly knowledge refresh sessions.

Can I cancel anytime?

+

Yes. No long-term contracts. Cancel with 30 days' notice on any monthly plan.
