How India chats & books

Guests don't search. They chat — and book in a minute.

Awwee, our AI, understands what a guest wants and books the right stay in under a minute. That guest could be walking into your property.

01

They chat with Awwee

A guest opens Awestruck and just says what they feel like — in plain words.

02

Awwee matches them

Our AI reads their mood and picks the right stays. Yours can be one — no ads, no bidding.

03

They book in a minute

Prepaid and confirmed on the spot. Because they've paid, no-shows are rare.

04

They arrive, already sold

The guest reaches you excited for the stay. You simply host — the booking is done.

The problem with travel apps

Apps sell the lowest price. Guests want a good time.

By the time someone searches "resorts near Mumbai," the decision to get away is already made — the OTA just decides who wins it, on discount.

01

You compete on price, always

Rank is tied to discounting. The lowest rate wins the fold, regardless of what makes your stay worth booking.

02

Visibility costs extra

Real placement means sponsored slots and ad auctions — a recurring spend just to be seen by guests already comparing five others.

03

You reach guests too late

You only appear at the bottom of the funnel, once they're comparing tabs — never at the moment the getaway is decided.

Your questions, answered simply

Everything an owner wants to know.

OTAs sort you into a price grid and often charge for visibility. Awestruck matches travellers to your property by mood and intent before they search, sends them to book direct, and never charges for ads or listing. You pay a single commission only on a confirmed stay.

Nothing to list, on web and app, and no ad spend. We earn a single commission only when a guest completes a confirmed stay.

Usually 3 to 4 working days. Send us photos and details plus the email and phone number where bookings should land; we build and verify your listing and take you live — far faster than the weeks most platforms take.

On the email and phone number you provide, plus WhatsApp. No new software, tablet or training — and the guest relationship stays yours.

Hotels, resorts and staycations across Mumbai, Pune, Lonavala, Alibaug, Igatpuri, Karjat, Mahabaleshwar and the wider Maharashtra region, expanding across India.

No lock-in. Pause or leave with 30 days' notice and no penalty.

No. There is nothing new to run. Bookings arrive on the email, phone and WhatsApp you already use, so your front desk works exactly as it does today.

Each request comes to your booking inbox and phone with the guest's name, dates and details. Your team confirms it the same way as any direct booking — no new screen to learn.

No. You approve how your property is presented before it goes live. There are no forced discounts, no public price-war leaderboards, and your brand is shown the way you want it.

Yes. Awestruck sits on top of what you already do. Keep your website, social and OTAs — we simply add a new stream of guests matched to your kind of stay.

No. We do not ask you to publish a lower public rate. You set your own rates, and you manage any parity agreements you hold with other platforms.

Yes. You decide what is open and when. We only send demand for the dates and room types you want to fill, which is ideal for soft midweek and off-season periods.

Guests are matched by intent — a wellness weekend, a quiet getaway — not by lowest price. That fills the slow dates with the right guests, without discounting your rooms.

Nothing to list and nothing for ads. You pay a single commission only when a guest completes a confirmed stay. Terms are agreed with you in writing before you go live.

Then you pay nothing. If someone only asks or holds a date and does not go ahead, there is no commission — we simply pass the lead to you.

Awestruck is a low-commission, high-business alternative to the big OTAs and travel apps. Unlike an OTA, there is no listing fee and no ad spend — you list your hotel or resort free and pay a single commission only on a confirmed stay. It is built for owners who want more direct bookings without paying 15–25% OTA commission or bidding for visibility.

List your property free on Awestruck. It is a low-commission hotel booking platform: no monthly fee, no ads, and commission only on a confirmed stay. Guests are matched to your hotel or resort by intent and sent to book direct, so you keep more revenue per booking than on a traditional OTA.

Add Awestruck alongside your existing channels. As a GM you keep your rates, availability and rate parity, while Awestruck sends intent-matched, prepaid guests direct to your property for a single commission only on a confirmed stay — lowering your blended OTA commission and lifting direct, higher-margin bookings.

Yes. Awestruck lets you list your hotel, resort, villa or staycation completely free — zero listing fee and zero ad spend on web and app. You only pay when a guest completes a confirmed stay, making it one of the most cost-effective ways to get more bookings in India.

Awestruck matches guests by mood and occasion — a wellness midweek break, a quiet off-season getaway — instead of by lowest price. That fills soft midweek and off-season dates with the right guests and protects your rate, unlike discount-led OTA visibility.

OTA ads charge you for visibility whether or not a booking happens. Awestruck charges nothing for listing or visibility and takes a single commission only on a confirmed, prepaid stay. For most independent hotels and resorts in India, that means higher margin per booking and no wasted ad spend.

Yes. You can list all your room types and multiple properties under one partner account, and we work directly with groups and chains that want a single point of contact.

Yes. Awestruck is an OTA alternative for hotels, resorts and staycations in India. Instead of a search-and-discount marketplace, it is an AI platform that matches guests to your property by intent and sends them to book direct — with no ad spend and a low commission charged only on a confirmed stay.

Most OTAs charge 15 to 25 percent and extra for visibility. Awestruck keeps costs low: zero to list, zero for ads, and a single low commission only on a completed stay, so more of your room revenue stays with you.

List direct on Awestruck alongside your OTAs. Guests are matched by mood and sent to book with you, the guest data stays yours, and you pay commission only on stays — a simple way to cut OTA commission and win more direct, high-margin bookings.

For GMs comparing OTA alternatives, Awestruck combines AI intent-matching, prepaid confirmed bookings with fewer no-shows, zero ad spend and a low commission only on a stay — built to grow occupancy and RevPAR without the pay-to-play visibility costs of traditional OTAs.
