The problem

Smart devices are only smart
when they talk to your reservations

Most operators juggle a different app for every lock, thermostat and sensor. Codes get created by hand, AC runs in empty units, and nobody notices the leak until the next guest does.

01

App overload

A separate login for every brand means manual codes, missed updates and a team that can't see the whole portfolio at once.

02

Silent damage

A slow leak, a smoke alarm or a party at 2 AM β€” without real-time alerts, small problems become insurance claims and bad reviews.

03

Wasted energy

HVAC and lights running full-blast in vacant units quietly drain margin on every property, every night it sits empty.

How it works

From booking to checkout β€” on autopilot

Lynx connects your PMS and booking sites to every device in the property, so access, comfort and safety follow the reservation automatically.

STEP 01

Sync reservations

Lynx pulls bookings from your PMS and booking sites in real time.

STEP 02

Issue access

Unique door codes are generated per stay and shared with the guest automatically.

STEP 03

Automate the stay

Occupied & vacant rules adjust temperature and lights; sensors watch for trouble.

STEP 04

Reset at checkout

AutoVault wipes guest credentials and the property drops back to energy-saving mode.
