Platform/Competitor Rate Intelligence
Hotel rate shopping software

See where your rate stands.
And when the market moved.

Track 5 competitors 120 days ahead through nightly, source-linked snapshots — then see market position, price history, booking-window patterns and supply gaps beside your own hotel data.

A competitor rate is a signal, not an instruction. Peaqplus preserves the movement and its source so your team can weigh it against occupancy, pickup and forecast before changing a price.

Pulse AI · requires module: You're priced 4.6% below the market average. Three competitors moved up overnight on Fri–Sat — your spread widened.
One market signal · three decisions

Useful before a price change — and after it.

The same source-linked history gives the revenue manager evidence, management a reason, and the commercial team a shared market reference.

RM
Decide whether the move matters

Compare the same stay conditions, see who moved first and check your own pace before following, holding or widening the gap.

Signal → decision
GM
Understand why the rate changed

Review the market position and source behind an action instead of accepting “the competitors moved” as the whole explanation.

Context → accountability
TEAM
Bring one market view to the meeting

Use the same dated snapshot in pricing, the revenue meeting and follow-up instead of rebuilding the compset story from screenshots.

Shared reference
01
From isolated check to traceable history

Keep the movement, not just today’s price.

A manual tab check shows what a channel displays at one moment. It does not preserve who moved first, how the gap developed or whether yesterday’s comparison used the same stay conditions.

Peaqplus collects publicly visible rates each night and stores them as dated snapshots. Filter the comparison by currency, stay length, guests, meal plan, rate type, channel and room type, then trace a value back to its source page.

This is scheduled nightly monitoring, not an on-demand live shop. It cannot reveal a competitor’s occupancy, costs or reason for changing price — which is why the market signal stays beside your own hotel data instead of replacing it.

What the standard scope includes
  • Nightly collection from publicly visible rates only — Booking.com, Szállás.hu, the hotels' own sites
  • 5 competitors per property and 120 future stay dates in the standard scope
  • Timestamp and source link retained with the observed rate
  • Read-only monitoring — no rate or restriction is changed by this module
  • Competitor Rate Intelligence and Competitor Reviews Intelligence are sold together in Growth or as one BI Core add-on

Four reports

Position. History. Pattern. Supply.

Each answers a different question about the public rate and availability signals in your competitive set: current state, past movement, recurring pattern and visible supply restrictions.

01
Market position

"Where do I stand today?" — own rate vs competitive average across the next 30 days, with a gap chart and a matrix table.

Current state
02
Price history

"Who moved, and when?" — multi-line chart of rate movements across the last 30 / 60 / 90 days.

Past movement
03
Booking-window pattern

"What strategy do I actually run?" — 7 booking windows, automatic classification (early mover · capacity-filler · etc.).

Structural strategy
04
Supply strategy

"Where do they restrict — and where don't they?" — price-delta timeline + 3-state availability matrix.

Supply decisions
01
01 · Market position

Where you stand today. Across the next 30 days.

Your rate, the competitive average, and the gap between them — visible day by day for the next month. The 'where am I in the market this morning?' question gets a single chart and a KPI strip. Trend over the last week and your one-day movement land beside it.

What's on the report
  • Spread chart — own price line and competitor-average line with a coloured area between them (green when you're below, red when above)
  • Matrix table — every hotel as a column, every day as a row, heatmap-coloured cells, own row highlighted
  • Per-cell history — hover any cell for a 30-day price-trace sparkline, when we last saw it, channel, meal type, rate type, source URL
  • Multi-dimensional filtering — currency, nights, adults, meal type, rate type, channel, room type

02 · Price history

Who moved. When.

Today's rate tells you where a competitor stands now. Stored snapshots show when the published rate changed — the X-axis is the day we observed the price, not the stay date. The first mover on weekend pricing, the late mover who dropped in the final week and the property whose visible rate appears unchanged all separate in one chart.

What's on the report
  • Multi-line history — one line per competitor across the last 30 / 60 / 90 days of nightly checks
  • Mode toggle — average view or per-hotel view; legend lets you focus on one competitor at a time
  • First-vs-last change — every line carries an arrow and percentage showing the net move across the window
  • Built for the revenue meeting — who moved, in what direction, with what timing

03 · Booking-window pattern

Are you an early mover, or a capacity-filler?

Seven fixed booking windows from 60+ days out down to 0–3 days. Every window is a relative percentage versus the 60+ baseline. The platform classifies you against the market: are you the conventional pricer, the early mover, the capacity-filler dropping rates inside two weeks, or the late mover with last-minute markups? Self-knowledge at the strategy level, not the daily-decision level.

What's on the report
  • 4 strategy categories — Capacity-filler, Early mover, Conventional, Late mover
  • 5 market-position labels — Most aggressive · Aggressive · Average · Restrained · Mildest
  • X-axis inverted — left edge = "booked early", right edge = "check-in close", reading like the booking window itself
  • Mode toggle — average or per-hotel; lookback selectable (90 / 180 / 365 days)

04 · Supply strategy

Where they restrict — and where they don't.

A two-layer report: a price-delta timeline (e.g. your direct-booking discount vs the market) and a three-state availability matrix beneath it. The matrix shows which channels are open, restricted, or quietly closed for each day — because the gap is itself a supply decision (a min-LOS rule, a closed channel, a stop-sell). Choose the dimension: channel discounting, length-of-stay discounting, or room-type spread.

What's on the report
  • Three dimensions — Channel · Length-of-stay · Room type
  • Three-state cells — available · restricted · no-data (the third state matters: empty slots are left out, not counted as 100% closed)
  • Unit toggle — view the gap in currency or as a percentage
  • Hover detail on every cell — same as Market position, with 1-day and 7-day price changes + sparkline

Hotel rate shopping FAQ

Know what is monitored — and what still needs your judgement.

Refresh timing, source scope, automatic pricing and the Rate + Reviews bundle, in plain terms.

01
What is hotel rate shopping software?

Hotel rate shopping software monitors publicly displayed room rates for a chosen competitive set and compares them with your hotel under matching stay conditions. Peaqplus stores nightly, source-linked snapshots for 5 competitors and 120 future stay dates, so you can see both the current position and when the market moved.

02
Are the competitor rates live or refreshed nightly?

Peaqplus uses scheduled nightly collection, not an on-demand live shop. Each observed value keeps its timestamp and source link, so you know how current it is and can verify it before acting. The module cannot see a competitor’s occupancy, costs or reason for changing price.

03
Does Competitor Rate Intelligence change my hotel rates automatically?

No. Competitor Rate Intelligence is read-only and does not change a rate or restriction. Pricing & Rate Management can use the competitor average as an optional input, Ping can add threshold alerts, and Pulse AI can add plain-language analysis when those separate modules are active.

04
How much does Competitor Rate Intelligence cost, and are reviews included?

Competitor Rate & Review Intelligence is sold as one €59/month per-property add-on on top of BI Core and is included in Growth. The standard scope covers 5 competitors and 120 days ahead; Reviews Intelligence is included. The one-time €135 setup includes configuration, rate-match verification and 1 hour of team training. Prices are net of VAT; yearly billing receives a 10% discount.

Signal → Decision → Action → Outcome

Bring the five hotels you actually price against.

In a 45–60 minute walkthrough, we use a simulated hotel to compare like-for-like rates, trace a movement to its source and follow the signal into a pricing decision without assuming the competitor must be right.

The demo is free and does not require PMS access. We reply within 1 business day.
