Effortless Unit Mapping Between Hostex and Alertify
Once you connect your Hostex and Alertify accounts, all of your rental units from Hostex are automatically imported into Alertify. This one-time sync makes it easy to match your Alertify devices to the correct property listings without any manual data entry. Linked units mean all data – guest info, booking dates, and device alerts – are automatically aligned, giving you confidence that you’re monitoring the right space at the right time.
You can view and manage your imported units right in your Alertify dashboard. If needed, units can also be manually linked or unlinked, giving you full control over the mapping process. This tight integration saves time and eliminates confusion across platforms.
Auto-Generated After-Incident Reports with Guest Info
In the event of a noise violation or indoor smoking alert, you need accurate guest data fast. Through the Hostex integration, every Alertify after-incident report is populated with verified guest information pulled directly from the booking record in Hostex. This includes the guest’s name, stay dates, and contact details.
This data integration makes your after-incident reports more credible and complete – perfect for sharing with insurance providers, OTAs, or third-party platforms. By eliminating the need to dig for guest details, you can move faster and more confidently when handling disputes or making claims.
Automate Guest Verification with WelcomeLink
Verifying your guests before they arrive is critical for maintaining safety and accountability. With Hostex and Alertify connected, you can automatically send WelcomeLink, Alertify’s digital guest verification portal, to each incoming guest. WelcomeLink collects ID verification, e-signatures for guest agreements, and other essential check-in information – all without lifting a finger.
Once a booking is confirmed in Hostex, Alertify automatically triggers the WelcomeLink flow, ensuring you have verified and accountable guests staying in your home. This automation not only improves safety but also creates a professional experience that aligns with your brand.
Real-Time Guest Alerts for Noise and Smoking
Nobody wants to deal with loud parties or indoor smoking after the fact. With the Hostex and Alertify integration, you can now send real-time automated alerts to guests, with Guest Alerts, when a violation is detected – before the problem escalates.
Alertify monitors your property 24/7 and immediately identifies when noise levels or smoking activity cross your configured thresholds. Once an issue is detected, the system sends a polite but firm message to the guest, letting them know they’ve violated house rules. These alerts are customizable and sent through the communication channels synced via Hostex, keeping everything streamlined and timely.
This proactive approach helps stop problems before they lead to property damage, neighbor complaints, or costly cleanups – and it works completely in the background while you focus on running your business.
