The vision
Short-term rental operations are broken by design.
Your systems don't talk to each other. Booking calendars don't control heating. Sensors don't inform decisions. AirAutomate is the platform that connects them, starting with Alfred, which links your booking calendar to your heating. Climate control is just the beginning.
The platform
One platform. Alfred first, more as it lands.
What comes next builds on the same foundation, so you can join early and grow with each capability as it ships.
Ships first
Alfred, for the climate.
Reads your booking calendar and runs the climate across every property: comfortable for every arrival, eased back in the gaps, automatically.
On the roadmap
Insights from your sensors.
Sensors across the property become decisions you can act on, in plain English: what needs attention and where, not another chart to read.
On the roadmap
High-power systems.
Hot tubs, swim spas and underfloor heating: the heaviest loads in a property, run to the same booking calendar Alfred follows for the climate.
The problem we see
Every property operator knows this pattern.
Guest checks out at 10am. Cleaner arrives at 2pm. Next guest checks in at 4pm. During those six hours, the heating runs at full comfort temperature for an empty property. Multiply that across 10 properties, 30 turnovers a month, 12 months a year.
The waste is invisible because it's gradual. It shows up in monthly bills, not daily alerts. Most operators absorb it as a fixed cost. We don't think it has to be.
Turnover gaps alone, a typical month, 10 properties
Turnovers
~30
check-out to check-in cycles
Average gap
4-6 hrs
heating running with no guest
Wasted hours
~150 hrs
of heating that nobody needed
And that is only the turnovers. The longer empty stretches between bookings add far more hours again, which is where most of the saving sits. Run it for your portfolio
Our approach
Three principles that make Alfred different.
Calendar-driven, not reactive
Traditional smart heating reacts to occupancy. Alfred reads your booking calendar and prepares each property before arrival, never reacting late.
One property or a hundred
The logic that closes the gaps in a single flat is the same logic that compounds across a portfolio. Start with one and add the rest later.
Always protected
Frost protection is never disabled, so pipes don't freeze. Alfred never switches everything off blindly. Safety is the floor, not a feature.
Built to earn its place
No lock-in. No feature gating. Alfred earns its place or you cancel.
We keep hardware costs low so the barrier to starting is small. Your subscription is month-to-month. If the hours aren't there, you walk away. No penalties, no contracts.
Every operator gets every feature. Tiers are based on how many zones your property needs, not artificial limitations.
Month-to-month · cancel anytime · the hardware is yours
