Overview
How each tool is described
Lighthouse
What is Lighthouse?
Lighthouse is a hotel commercial operating platform that brings together market intelligence, business performance, pricing, distribution, direct bookings, and AI-assisted decision support for revenue, commercial, ecommerce, and hotel leadership teams.
- Market and pricing intelligence: Lighthouse Pricing combines live hotel and short-term-rental rates with flight and hotel search signals, local events, source-market data, length-of-stay patterns, and dynamic competitive sets. It provides up to 365 days of forward-looking demand data and AI-generated rate recommendations, while Lighthouse’s wider intelligence products also cover parity and distribution performance.
- Performance management: Lighthouse Performance connects PMS data with competitive intelligence, portfolio dashboards, budgeting and forecasting, pickup and pace analysis, room and ancillary revenue, and dynamic benchmarking. AI Smart Insights flag abnormal pickup, suboptimal pricing, and important segment changes so revenue teams can focus on exceptions rather than assembling reports manually.
- Ernest AI: Ernest is Lighthouse’s natural-language workspace across connected pricing, performance, distribution, and direct-channel data. Commercial teams can ask business questions in plain language, receive recommendations linked back to supporting data, schedule automated tasks, and create custom alerts around their priorities.
- Commercial structure: Lighthouse serves both enterprise hotel groups and independent properties, but packaging differs by segment. Enterprise-oriented products such as Performance and Distribution are primarily demo-led, while independent hotels can access packaged Pricing Optimization plans; current public pricing starts at €99 per month for Starter and €129 for Plus, with a free Pricing Optimization trial available. The Plus package adds channel management, direct bookings and payments, and additional automation.
Lighthouse is most relevant to hotels and multi-property groups that want market demand, competitive pricing, internal performance, distribution, direct-booking data, and AI-assisted commercial decisions connected within one hospitality-specific platform.
BEONx
What is BEONx?
BEONx is an AI-driven hotel revenue management system for medium and large independent hotels, chains, and resorts. It combines forecasting, automated pricing, segmentation, market intelligence, and hotel-specific quality data to optimize rates and inventory across future stay dates.
- Revenue optimization: BEONx uses AI-driven forecasting and pricing recommendations across room types, customer segments, stay dates, and distribution channels. Its Advanced plan can automate pricing decisions up to 365 days ahead, while Professional supports 365-day forecasting, multiple daily pricing updates, and controls such as minimum-length-of-stay and stop-sell restrictions.
- Market positioning: the proprietary Hotel Quality Index (HQI) evaluates a property using service and facility characteristics plus online reputation and compares its quality position with competitors. BEONx incorporates HQI into pricing for target segments and uses it to understand competitive positioning and price elasticity rather than relying only on competitor room rates.
- Operational fit: BEONx Live, introduced in December 2025, reacts to meaningful changes in reservations, demand, market conditions, and events instead of waiting for scheduled refreshes. BEONx also integrates with more than 100 hospitality partners, including PMS, channel-management, booking, market-data, and business-intelligence systems.
- Commercial considerations: current Advanced and Professional plans are aimed primarily at medium and large hotels, including independent properties and hotel chains. BEONx does not publish fixed plan prices and directs prospective customers to its sales team, so buyers should evaluate property scale, automation requirements, integrations, inventory complexity, and required revenue-management controls.
BEONx is particularly relevant to hotels seeking automated forecasting and pricing while incorporating property quality, competitive positioning, segmentation, and real-time market changes into revenue decisions.
