Apaleo, the open, API-first hospitality platform, and IDeaS, a SAS company and the world’s leading provider of AI-powered hospitality revenue management software, today announced the availability of an enhanced integration designed to simplify hotel operations and strengthen revenue performance and improve profitability.
The integration enables seamless, two-way data flows between Apaleo’s property management system (PMS) and the IDeaS revenue management platform, allowing hotels to execute pricing, inventory, forecasting, and revenue optimisation strategies using real-time operational and demand data.
By automating the exchange of reservation, inventory, pricing, and performance data through seamless, two-way data flows, the integration reduces manual processes and provides operators with more accurate inputs for forecasting and pricing decisions.
Apaleo shares live reservation and stay data with IDeaS, while IDeaS returns pricing, forecasting and advanced revenue control recommendations, including overbooking, minimum length-of-stay and Last Room Value (LRV) decisions into Apaleo, ensuring revenue decisions are consistently informed by the latest operational and demand signals. The result is a more connected technology stack that improves revenue management and day-to-day operational efficiency.
