Connect Hospitable with Invisible Hand for same-day vacancy pricing

Automatically adjust the price of still-vacant nights on the day, within limits you set.

Written by Frances Rebollido

Many nights are still unbooked on the day they happen, and once midnight passes an unsold night is worth nothing. Invisible Hand checks each connected property at times you choose. If tonight is still vacant, it adjusts that night's calendar price by a percentage you set, and never goes below the price floor you set for the property.

You stay in control: nothing changes on any calendar until you have reviewed and activated each property. You can pick the local trigger time per property, lower prices (or raise them on higher plans), skip Friday and Saturday nights, and track adjustments and the bookings that followed them in a dashboard.

Initiate the connection on Invisible Hand

  1. Login or sign up at http://www.invisiblehand.app/.

  2. Go to Settings and scroll down to the API Connections section.

  3. Click Connect Hospitable.

  4. You will be brought to the Hospitable login page (if you aren't already logged in).

  5. Review the permissions and click Authorize Invisible Hand.

  6. You’ll be redirected to Invisible Hand and go straight to Review & activate.

Review and activate

  1. For each property, check the Trigger schedule (the time and percentage), the Lowest price we’ll ever set (your floor), and the Timezone.

  2. Confirm each property’s timezone. Activation stays disabled until you do, so a rule can’t run at the wrong local hour. “Confirm all timezones” does them in one click.

  3. Adjust the percentage or floor if you want.

  4. Click Activate on a property, or Activate all. The confirmation shows the lowest floor across the properties you’re activating.

FAQs

  • Will prices change before I activate? No.
