What is Hostify?

Founded in 2019 by Chavdar Marinov, Hostify has rapidly established itself as one of the most powerful property management systems in the vacation rental market. Based in Delaware, United States, this all-in-one platform currently employs between 11 and 50 people and serves thousands of properties worldwide.

Hostify offers a comprehensive solution that centralizes listing management, reservations, distribution channel connections, and guest messaging. As a hybrid PMS and channel manager, the platform connects to over 400 different channels, including Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, Expedia, and many others. This real-time synchronization prevents double bookings and allows you to manage your entire portfolio from a single interface.

Hostify's standout features include an interactive multi-calendar, a unified inbox to centralize all guest messages, tools to automate repetitive tasks, an integrated direct booking engine, and an open API to customize the experience. The platform also offers transparent and tiered pricing based on the number of properties managed:

  • $1,000/year for managing fewer than 5 properties
  • $20/month for portfolios of 5 to 19 properties
  • $16/month for portfolios of 20 to 49 properties
  • $13/month for portfolios of 50 to 99 properties
  • $10/month for portfolios of 100 to 199 properties
  • no hidden integration or training fees.

However, despite these undeniable strengths, Hostify has certain limitations when it comes to native artificial intelligence. While the platform enables automation of numerous operational tasks and offers intelligent response suggestions for guests, Hostify doesn't have a true advanced conversational AI assistant capable of autonomously and contextually managing all guest interactions 24/7. This is precisely where integrating a specialized AI solution like Nowistay makes perfect sense.

How to integrate AI with Hostify?

AI integration with Hostify is simple and direct thanks to Nowistay's unique approach. Unlike traditional integrations that require complex connectors or third-party applications, Nowistay's AI co-host syncs directly with your Airbnb and Booking.com accounts. This architecture allows complete compatibility with Hostify without any tedious technical configuration.

In practical terms, you continue using Hostify to manage your calendars, rates, and reservations, while Nowistay handles intelligent automation of guest communications. Implementation takes just a few minutes: no application to download, no connector to configure, no interruption to your daily operations. You maintain complete control over your data while benefiting from next-generation conversational AI.

The advantages for property management companies and hosts are numerous and measurable. Message automation enables instant responses within 3 minutes to information requests, equipment questions, or house rules inquiries, while maintaining a personalized and professional tone. This responsiveness significantly improves your response rate, a crucial factor in Airbnb and Booking ranking algorithms that directly influences your listing visibility.

According to a recent study by Hostaway published in 2024, 66% of property management companies managing over 50 properties already use artificial intelligence in their daily operations, and 70.1% of managers affirm that AI gives them a competitive advantage in automation, guest communication, and dynamic pricing. Artificial intelligence is no longer a luxury but an industry standard in 2025 and 2026.

Key features of Nowistay AI integration with Hostify

Nowistay's intelligent co-host radically transforms daily management of your vacation rental business, even when using Hostify as your primary PMS.

Intelligent guest messaging management is the heart of our solution. Our conversational AI responds contextually to guest questions at all stages of their stay: before booking for information requests about amenities, house rules, or availability; during the stay for practical questions about Wi-Fi, access instructions, or local recommendations; and after departure with personalized thank you and goodbye messages. The system operates 24/7 in over 90 languages, guaranteeing an impeccable guest experience regardless of their geographic origin or time zone.

Nowistay's artificial intelligence doesn't rely on pre-recorded responses. It understands the context of each conversation, adapts its tone based on the situation, and can even identify urgent requests requiring human intervention. This advanced semantic analysis capability ensures your guests receive relevant and useful answers, reinforcing their satisfaction and increasing the likelihood of positive reviews.

Multi-platform management is naturally simplified since Nowistay connects directly to Airbnb and Booking.com. Whether your reservations come from Airbnb, Booking, or any other platform synchronized via Hostify, our AI co-host uniformly handles all communications. You benefit from a unified experience without having to juggle between different interfaces or worry about technical compatibility between systems.

This direct approach presents a major advantage over traditional integrations: by bypassing third-party API limitations, Nowistay guarantees maximum reliability and minimal latency in message processing. Your guests receive responses within 3 minutes, improving their perception of your professionalism and responsiveness.

Case studies and testimonials from Hostify users

The concrete results achieved by our clients perfectly illustrate the added value of Nowistay's AI co-host for PMS users like Hostify.

  • Sophie, manager of a 28-apartment property management company in Lyon, testifies: "Since I activated Nowistay to complement Hostify, my response rate increased from 87% to 98% and my average response time dropped below 5 minutes. This had a direct impact on my ranking in Airbnb search results. In three months, I saw a 23% increase in my booking requests."
  • Marc, owner of 12 villas in Provence, shares his experience: "The digital transformation brought by Nowistay has been spectacular. I continue using Hostify to manage my rates and calendars, but AI handles 85% of interactions with guests. I've recovered an average of 15 hours per week that I can now dedicate to developing my business rather than answering the same questions."
  • A Parisian property management company managing 45 properties observed a remarkable improvement in performance after Nowistay integration. Their overall rating on Airbnb increased from 4.7 to 4.9 stars in six months, primarily due to improved communication and responsiveness sub-scores. This progression directly impacted their positioning in platform recommendation algorithms, generating a 31% increase in booked nights over the same period.

The impact on response time is particularly significant for property management companies operating internationally. Nowistay's multilingual AI enables instant responses to Chinese, American, or Brazilian guests during European nighttime, when human teams aren't available. This constant availability radically transforms the guest experience and positively influences the overall rating, a fundamental criterion in listing promotion by Airbnb and Booking algorithms.
