Hotel team reviewing bookings and guest messages
 
Cloudbeds Alternative

A different kind of Cloudbeds alternative.

Cloudbeds is a solid all-in-one PMS, channel manager and booking engine for hotels. Brahma is the layer on top: AI agents that do the guest comms, rate moves, housekeeping and reporting work across Cloudbeds - or run the operation itself if you would rather consolidate.

Keep Cloudbeds. Or replace it. Either way, the agents do the work and you approve what matters.

Fair note

What Cloudbeds does well

We are not here to trash the tools hotels already trust. Cloudbeds earns its place in a lot of properties - and our honest position is that Brahma works with it, not only instead of it.

All-in-one for small properties

PMS, channel manager and booking engine in one place - a low-friction start for a small independent property.

Channel distribution

Connects the major OTAs from a single dashboard, which is the core job a hotel needs done.

Global footprint

A large installed base across independent hotels, hostels and B&Bs.

The gap

Why teams look for a Cloudbeds alternative

Nothing above is a criticism. It is simply the ceiling of any tool-of-record: it gives your team screens, and the coordination still sits with people. The complaints we hear are about the work around the tool, not the tool itself.

The work lives between the tools

Reservations in the PMS, rates in the pricing tool, cleans in another, messages in the OTAs. Your front desk is the integration.

Manual, repeated, and constant

Someone retypes bookings, chases cleaners, and copies numbers into owner reports by hand - every day.

Reports take a night

Pulling occupancy and revenue across systems is a monthly ritual, not a read.

The alternative

Brahma is the AI layer on top - or the platform instead

Two ways to run it, whichever fits today. See the full hotel management platform.

Guest Comms agent

Confirmations, check-in emails, review replies and special requests - drafted in your voice, sent after your approval.

Bookings and Pricing agent

Watches reservations and forecast, flags rate moves, and drafts the confirmations.

Channel Sync agent

Keeps rates and availability aligned across the OTAs through your existing channel manager.

Task agent

Coordinates housekeeping, maintenance and vendors across the property.

Reporting agent

Builds owner and performance reports from live data, not a month-end ritual.

Your rulebook

Routine work runs on its own; anything outside your rules waits for your sign-off.

Side by side

Cloudbeds vs Brahma

An honest split. Cloudbeds is the system of record; Brahma is the layer that does the work. They solve different halves.

Cloudbeds
  • System of record: rooms, rates, bookings
  • Channel manager and booking engine
  • Screens your team operates
  • Coordination is manual
  • Reports built by hand
→
Brahma
  • AI agents that do the operational work
  • One triage queue across your stack
  • Guest comms drafted and sent in-thread
  • Rate moves flagged, pushed with approval
  • Reports built from live data

Not an either/or: Brahma runs on top of Cloudbeds, or as the platform itself. See the PMS platform.

Switching

Move without losing your data

You do not have to start over. We connect to what you already run, then take over the work gradually.

Connect

Point Brahma at your stack

API where available, read-only database access where not. Cloudbeds stays your system of record if you prefer.

Watch

Agents shadow the work

They triage, draft and report alongside your team, so you can see the quality before you rely on it.

Approve

You keep the sign-off

Routine work runs on your rulebook; anything sensitive stops and waits for your approval.

Decide

Keep Cloudbeds, or replace it

Run Brahma as the layer on top, or as the platform that runs the hotel. Your call, and reversible.

FAQ

Cloudbeds alternative, answered straight

Is Brahma a like-for-like Cloudbeds replacement?

No - and that is the point. Cloudbeds is a system of record (PMS, channels, booking engine). Brahma is the AI layer that does the operational work across it and the tools around it. You can run Brahma on top of Cloudbeds, or as the platform that runs the hotel. See hotel management software.

Do I have to migrate off Cloudbeds?

No. We connect to Cloudbeds (and the rest of your stack) by API where available, and read-only to its database where not. Cloudbeds stays your system of record if you want it to.

How is Brahma priced?

Per AI agent, from $249 per agent per month on the AI Go plan, with a free assessment, free onboarding and migration, and the first month free. There are no per-room fees: unlimited properties, units and rooms on every plan.

What actually changes day to day?

The coordination moves off your team. Guest messages are drafted and sent in-thread, rate moves are flagged and pushed with your approval, housekeeping is assigned and tracked, and reports build themselves from live data.

Is my data safe, and is it used to train models?

Your data stays yours: isolated workspace, least-privilege access, audit logging, and a GDPR-compliant setup with a data processing agreement. It is not used to train models.

Plans

Priced around the outcome, not the hour

One monthly fee, hosting, AI usage and support included, and agents that add on as you grow. Every plan begins the same way - with a free assessment and a free first month - so you see it working before you commit.

Every plan starts here

Free assessment. Free onboarding, migration and setup. Your first month free.

No credit card required. We assess the work, stand the platform up on your own systems, and run the first month alongside your team. You continue only if you are happy with the results and can see a measurable impact on your revenue and your cost - if you cannot see it, say so and walk away.
