Smily

Smily — previously BookingSync — has a long history with European rental managers, particularly those running a real direct-booking business rather than treating their own site as an afterthought.

That focus raises the stakes on response time. A guest enquiring through your own website has chosen you specifically, and a slow reply reads as indifference in a way it does not on a marketplace where everyone expects a delay.

Connecting Smily means those enquiries get answered immediately, from real availability, in the guest’s language. For a European operator taking bookings across borders, that last part matters as much as the speed.

Bookings and rates stay in Smily throughout. ProhostAI reads them and acts on what they create rather than becoming a second place where availability is decided.

Once Smily is connected, ProhostAI works from its data — there is no second copy of your listings to maintain.

Read

• Sync listings and reservations Properties, stays and guest conversations come across and stay current. "Is the apartment available the week after Easter?"
• Answer from the real stay Replies use the booking's own property, dates and guest details rather than a generic template.

Create & update

• Reply to guests The AI answers in your voice on the channel the guest used, and escalates anything it should not close alone.
• Schedule the work a stay creates Turn a confirmed booking into a clean and the tasks around it, without anyone copying dates across.

Smily connects with an API key from your Smily account, so ProhostAI never sees your password.

1. In Smily, generate an API key from your account settings.
2. Open ProhostAI and go to Settings → Connections.
3. Search for Smily, select Connect, and paste the key.
4. Wait for the first sync, then check your listings and upcoming reservations look right.

• This connection is in Early Access. It covers listings, reservations and guest messaging rather than every feature the platform offers.
• Smily stays the system of record for availability, rates and bookings. ProhostAI reads them and acts on them rather than replacing them.
• Direct enquiries carry higher expectations than marketplace ones — a slow reply reads as indifference.
• Turn Autopilot on gradually — one property, one message type — so you can judge the AI’s tone before it covers everything.
