The Opportunity

Problem

Solo founders building hotel booking platforms cannot sync real-time inventory across multiple PMS systems without a dev team.

Solution

HotelFlowSync orchestrates webhooks from multiple PMS to keep your booking site's inventory in perfect sync, with a simple dashboard for rules. Solo founders set it up via config YAML or UI, no dev required. It fans out updates to all your channels instantly.
