Cloudbeds is pioneering AI-driven predictive hospitality, combining revenue management and marketing into a single intelligent system. CEO Adam Harris explains how their proprietary AI model analyzes billions of data points every hour to help hotels optimize pricing, fine-tune marketing campaigns, and attract guests with precision.

At Mercure Paddington in London, this AI-driven approach boosted occupancy from 64% to 92% while maintaining premium rates. Harris emphasizes that AI isn't just about automation—it's about predicting and shapingthe guest experience before they even know what they want.
