## What This Page Covers

- What stays under hotel control when using Hostrail.
- Current rollout scope and pilot shape.
- Preparation checklist before going live.
- The onboarding intake that creates tenant, property, and operator records.

## Hotel Control Model

- Inventory: room types, rate plans, and availability remain attributable to the hotel.
- Policy: cancellation, meal-plan, and payment language stay attached to the booking flow.
- Evidence: receipts, payment state, and guest follow-up stay tied to the same booking record.

## Current Scope

- Onboarded inventory only.
- Initial launch market before expansion.
- AI agents and guest web use the same booking state.
- Payment and policy behavior depend on configured rails and hotel setup.

## Pilot Shape

- Segment: boutique and small-chain hotels.
- Geography: initial launch market, then expansion.
- Demand source: AI assistants, concierge apps, and direct web.

## Preparation Checklist

1. Provide bookable property, room, and rate data.
2. Confirm cancellation and payment policies.
3. Define a PMS or operational sync path.
4. Assign a support owner for booking and payment exceptions.

## Onboarding Entry

- The intake creates a fresh hotel partner tenant scope.
- It seeds a draft property for rooms, rates, and inventory setup.
- It creates the hotel-side operator admin record for follow-up provisioning.
