Clerk Hotel Management: A room for a second act
A hotelier built Clerk to make small hotels easier to run. Its next chapter starts with a harder problem: turning useful software into a growing business.
HotelKey and the art of the uneventful check-in
A hotel can change its software only if it can keep being a hotel. HotelKey built its business around that awkward little condition.
Access Hospitality wants to give hotels their time back
A hotel can sell a room in seconds and spend hours untangling the booking. Access Hospitality is connecting the systems behind the stay, with Guestline at the centre of a much bigger software bet.
The Hotel Desk That Fits in a Pocket
Independent innkeepers once needed a calendar, five extranets and a talent for midnight arithmetic. eviivo turned that mess into one cloud dashboard - then spent two decades teaching it payments, pricing, AI chat and even how to open the door.
Zaplar
Zaplar is a Stockholm-based, Y Combinator (S26) startup building an AI-native operating system for hotels and event venues. Instead of stitching together the legacy hotel stack - PMS, POS, booking engine, CRS, RMS and MICE tools - Zaplar consolidates them into one platform where AI agents handle bookings, guest messaging, RFPs, event planning and follow-ups. Staff review and approve the agents' suggested actions, so hoteliers keep control while spending less time in front of a screen.
