QR-first guest lane·Automate check-in guidance·Verified information only

Automate guest messaging for vacation rentals. Hand off only the cases that need judgment.

Hinoki is a guest-operations system for vacation-rental teams. It starts with an in-room QR guide after check-in, can add optional voice support inside the same guest session, keeps replies grounded in verified guidance, and adds Beds24 only when booking-linked workflows are worth the extra integration.

Built for

Teams running repeat guest guidance across multiple properties

For operators who need one place to manage guest guidance, property rules, and repeat questions across listings.

Operating model

Automated replies use verified information only

Guidance and rules are reviewed before they are used, so the system does not improvise with unverified information.

Launch lane

Start with the in-room QR guide

The first workflow is the guide guests open after arrival for access steps, stay FAQ, and repeat requests.

Human handoff

Refunds and guest issues stay with a human

Damage, complaints, and refund-related cases are handed to an operator instead of being forced through automation.

Setup Chat

Import manuals and message templates, then turn them into usable operating information.

Rules

Manage the guidance and rules used in automated replies.

Desk

Hand off only the cases that actually need a person.

Activity log

Review why a message was sent, held, or handed off.

How it works

More than a chatbot. Built around the way vacation-rental operations actually run.

Hinoki automates the repeat work in vacation-rental operations: QR guidance after check-in, common questions, and property rules. Optional voice support stays inside the same controlled guest session, and anything that needs confirmation or judgment can be stopped and reviewed before it reaches the guest.

01

Verify and organize information first

Guidance and operating rules are reviewed before they are used in replies.

02

Publish the QR guide and optional integrations

Guests enter from an in-room QR and short PIN, then Beds24 is added later only where booking-linked workflows materially improve the operation.

03

Keep voice inside the same safety boundary

Optional voice support uses the same approved knowledge, trace, and Desk handoff rules instead of becoming a separate unsupervised lane.

04

Hand off the difficult cases

Refunds, damage, and complaints move to an operator instead of being forced through automation.

Public guides

Review the QR-first guest lane, optional voice support, Beds24 foundations, and post-purchase setup before you activate the workspace.

These public pages are meant for early requirement-setting, internal review, and post-purchase setup planning. They explain how to structure the in-room QR lane first, where optional voice support fits inside the same guest session, and when to add a Beds24 webhook after the workspace is active.

Hinoki Concierge MCP

Operate the same Hinoki workspace from Codex, Claude, or OpenClaw through a controlled local MCP.

Hinoki Concierge MCP is not a hosted autonomous agent. After payment, the owner issues a credential and each team installs the MCP locally on the machine that runs the client. The first release includes MCP in active paid plans, with the public MCP page routing operators to GitHub docs and releases.

Download

Start local install from the public MCP guide

Install on Python 3.10+, then add the owner-issued token after payment. Downloading the package alone does not connect to a workspace.

Python 3.10+Local stdio MCPOwner-issued token

1. Activate the workspace

A paid workspace unlocks MCP entitlement while Hinoki backend remains the source of truth.

2. Issue a partner credential

The owner issues a tenant-scoped token for Codex, Claude, or OpenClaw from the operator console.

3. Install locally

Each client launches the same `hinoki-concierge-mcp` stdio server from the operator's machine.

Automation boundary

Automate the routine. Hand off the cases that need judgment.

The line is explicit. Automated replies use verified information only. Refunds, damage, complaints, and anything outside that scope are handed to an operator.

Handled automatically

Check-in steps, access instructions, and arrival guidance

Approved answers to repeat guest questions

House rules and property-specific guidance

Late check-out availability based on booking data

Cases that need operator judgment

Anything automated handling cannot answer safely

Pricing

Priced for guest operations, not basic PMS administration.

Every plan uses verified information, activity logs, and human handoff. QR self-service and voice-agent rollouts can be added as controlled workflows instead of being bundled as unlimited chatbot usage.
