BusinessHotels AI tool displays live hotel rates

International news
Digital booking platform BusinessHotels has launched its AI Hotel Price Finder, a tool that verifies prices in real time and shows live rates that include taxes and fees. The tool retrieves lodging data at high speed, with searches typically taking less than a second.

BusinessHotels said internal tests show the AI engine retrieves live inventory data in 0.40 to 0.82 seconds.

It has designed the tool to move users from search results to payment through a “View Rooms” button that links to a secure checkout environment.

For users with registered accounts, the system identifies and applies pre-negotiated preferred rates during the pricing process, which means corporate rates feed into the total cost calculation as the tool fetches live prices.

The company positioned the launch as part of its plan to build Connected Trip, which focuses on the integration of search, rate verification and processing of payments into a single digital flow.

The concept centres on an AI-based operating system for travel that aims to combine booking with other functions.
