AI guest-experience control centre for resorts, April 2026

PULSE

A hotel control centre that scores guest risk from live signals and recommends the action most likely to recover the stay.

Guests ranked by a 1–10 risk score, re-sorted live over a WebSocket
Fixed rules own the score; the AI only explains it and proposes actions
Recommended actions tagged by team and resolved in one click
A simulator generates guest activity, so it runs without a real hotel
