AI Marketing Automation for Independent & Boutique Hotels
Hostli is an AI marketing automation platform built for independent and boutique hotels. The platform identifies high-value guest segments from your booking history, generates Meta ad campaigns end-to-end (creative, copy, targeting, budget), and continuously rebalances spend toward what books direct. Hoteliers approve every campaign on their phone before it goes live.
Hostli reads your PMS booking history and review corpus, then clusters guests into actionable segments — geographic origin, season, stay length, and motivation. Each segment becomes a campaign target.
End-to-end campaign generation
For each segment, the engine generates ad creative (image + copy variants), Meta CBO targeting, and a daily budget envelope. Every output is hotel-specific, locale-aware, and ready to ship to Meta Ads Manager.
Meta CBO with budget pacing
Campaigns publish under Meta Campaign Budget Optimization. Hostli enforces per-ad-set daily_min_spend_target (10%) and daily_spend_cap (50%) so spend cannot run away on a single creative.
Mobile approval and override
Every creative, copy line, and budget change requires hotelier approval. Approve, edit, or reject from a mobile interface. WhatsApp notifications surface anomalies and weekly digests.
Direct booking attribution
Hostli tracks attributed direct bookings via the website conversion pixel and matches Meta-attributed purchases against PMS records. The 2% success fee applies only to attributed direct bookings.
OTA commission reduction
Independent hotels pay 15–28% to OTAs on every booking. Each direct booking Hostli drives replaces an OTA commission. ROI is measured against displaced commission, not cost-per-click.

Frequently asked questions
What is hotel marketing automation?
Hotel marketing automation is software that generates, publishes, and optimises advertising campaigns for hotels without daily manual operation. It typically includes guest segmentation, creative generation, ad publishing to Meta and Google, budget pacing, and direct-booking attribution. Hostli automates all of these end-to-end and requires hotelier approval before any campaign goes live.
How is AI marketing automation different from a marketing agency?
Agencies operate on monthly retainers (typically $1,500–8,000/month) with human creative and account-management cycles measured in days or weeks. AI marketing automation generates and tests creatives in minutes, runs continuously, and prices on a flat platform fee plus performance-linked success fee on attributed bookings.
Does Hostli work alongside our existing marketing agency?
Yes. Yarden Estate, a Hostli design partner, ran Hostli's pipeline alongside their agency on the same ad accounts. Full case study available on request. Hostli operates under your Meta Business Manager with scoped permissions and does not interfere with agency-managed campaigns.
Which advertising platforms does Hostli support?
Meta Ads (Facebook + Instagram) is the primary platform. Hostli publishes via the Meta Marketing API with full CBO support, automatic placements, and dynamic creative. Google Ads and TikTok Ads are on the roadmap.
How long does setup take?
Yarden Estate, a Hostli design partner, went from signup to first live campaign in under 30 minutes. Setup requires connecting Meta Business Manager, your PMS or booking engine, and reviewing the first generated campaigns. No contract or onboarding services are required.
How much does Hostli cost?
Hostli charges a flat ₪1,500/month (≈$400) platform fee plus a 2% success fee on Hostli-attributed direct bookings. There is no minimum ad spend, no setup fee, and no annual commitment.
How does Hostli measure ROAS?
Return on Ad Spend is measured against attributed direct bookings, where attribution comes from the Meta conversion pixel matched against PMS booking records. Hostli reports both Meta-attributed ROAS and PMS-confirmed ROAS to avoid double-counting.
