Triptease

Direct booking

Triptease is a London-based "data marketing platform" for hotels whose single purpose is shifting bookings away from OTAs onto the hotel's own website. Its core mechanic is rate intelligence: it shops OTA prices in real time, auto-matches or beats them on the hotel's site and on metasearch, and surfaces personalised on-site messaging to push browsers into the direct booking engine. Around that sit metasearch and paid-search bidding, display retargeting, abandonment email with segmented push into the hotel's CRM, AI chat, and Date Boost for demand-sensitive dates. It is sold to revenue, e-commerce and marketing managers on fixed licence or pay-per-stay/CPA terms, and is distributed partly through CRS channels — Sabre SynXis customers get a free "Price Check Lite" tier via the Aven Hospitality partnership.
