Our Advantage

Manual Rate Checking

The routine: open the OTA, search for each competitor, wait for the page to load, copy the rate into a spreadsheet. One competitor at a time. It takes the evening, and the prices are stale an hour later. Demand is estimated.

RateOwl

RateOwl is the rate-intelligence tool built for independent hotels. It works because everything sits in one view: your comp-set, market demand, and the holidays and events ahead. You set your rate with intent instead of guesswork: more on the nights that can take it, less on the ones that can’t, in minutes rather than an evening.

How it works

Your own revenue analyst, and more. For a fraction of the cost.

Someone whose whole job is watching your market: every competitor's rate, demand for every night, every event worth pricing for. RateOwl does that research around the clock, and refreshes it the moment you ask.

Comp Pricing

Know what your competitors are charging.

The rates they're actually selling at, night by night. One clean median.

Market Intelligence

A demand score for every night on your calendar. Built from booking pace, price movements, seasonality, the Airbnb market and the events ahead.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Will RateOwl change my prices?

No. RateOwl does not touch your prices. It shows you what the market is doing, and you set your own rates. The decision is yours.

Does RateOwl connect to my PMS or channel manager?

None is needed. RateOwl starts from your hotel's Booking.com page alone. Want your own occupancy next to the market? Ask us and we will connect your PMS or channel manager for you.

Where does RateOwl get competitor hotel rates?

RateOwl collects competitor hotel rates from public Booking.com pages. They are the same prices a guest sees, for the cheapest available room each night.

How often does RateOwl refresh competitor rates?

RateOwl checks nights in the next two weeks every day. Nights further out are checked less often, because they move less. You can also refresh any night yourself, on demand.

How many competitors can I track with RateOwl?

RateOwl tracks up to ten competitors of your choice. You pick them, and you can change them.

What happens when a competitor is sold out?

The night shows as sold out on your RateOwl calendar. Sold out means Booking.com shows no rooms left for that night. The hotel may still have rooms on other channels.

Do I need to install anything to use RateOwl?

No. RateOwl is a web app. It runs in your browser, on a laptop or a phone.

How much does RateOwl cost?

RateOwl costs RM 500 per month for a hotel with up to 30 rooms, billed annually. It is RM 625 per month for up to 60 rooms and RM 750 for up to 100. Above 100 rooms, we quote you directly.

Does RateOwl have a free trial?

Yes. RateOwl has a free 30-day trial on your own market, with no card needed. Book a demo and the trial starts from there.

What happens when the trial ends?

Nothing is charged automatically, because no card is on file. We talk about what you saw. If RateOwl paid for itself, you subscribe. If not, you walk away and owe nothing.

Can I cancel RateOwl?

Yes. Cancelling stops future renewals, and you keep access until the end of the period you paid for. Email hello@rateowl.io and we handle it.

Is RateOwl right for my size of hotel?

RateOwl is built for independent hotels that price their own rooms, from owner-operators to teams with a revenue manager.

Does RateOwl work outside Malaysia?

Yes. Rate tracking works anywhere Booking.com operates. Holidays, school breaks and demand signals are tuned for Malaysia today. Talk to us and we will set them up for your country.

Can I use RateOwl for more than one property?

RateOwl covers one property per login today. If you run several, talk to us. We will set each of your properties up for you.
