US: PriceLabs has launched its AI revenue analyst, Athena, that monitors listings for short-term rental revenue management teams.
Athena applies analysis to each user’s account by checking listings, noting what needs attention, and recommends actions. Users do not need to write any prompts. Instead, they set up a schedule for Athena to run, such as every day or every week.
While Athena can run analyses on its own in the background, the users are the one who are in control. Athena sends recommendations and the evidence behind it to users by email, and a change is only made when the user accepts it. “We started PriceLabs with a simple vision: give small businesses easy-to-use revenue management tools that were once reserved for large hotel chains,” said Anurag Verma, co-founder of PriceLabs. “Athena is our next leap. She brings faster analysis and sharper insights to everyone who manages revenue, so they can spend more time on strategy and less on spreadsheets.”
Highlights:
- PriceLabs has launched Athena, an AI revenue analyst designed for short-term rental revenue management teams, which monitors listings and identifies areas requiring attention.
- Athena analyses users’ accounts automatically and recommends revenue management actions, eliminating the need for users to write prompts or manually initiate each analysis.
- Users can schedule Athena to run analyses on a recurring basis, such as daily or weekly, allowing the AI revenue analyst to monitor listings in the background.
- Athena sends recommendations and supporting evidence to users by email, while any changes require explicit user approval before they are implemented.
- PriceLabs says Athena is designed to give smaller businesses access to faster revenue analysis and insights, allowing revenue managers to spend less time on spreadsheets and more time on strategy.
