How it works
From WhatsApp message to recorded booking.
Send a message

"Rahul, 3 nights from 15 June, ₹8,000 total, ₹3,000 advance"
Chakrio parses it
AI pulls out the guest name, dates, room, and advance — and logs the booking in under a second.
Extracted: Guest · Rahul | Check-in · 15 Jun | Nights · 3 | Advance · ₹3,000

Dashboard updated: 1 new booking · Balance ₹5,000 due · Revenue +₹8,000
Direct bookings
Your guests book you directly on WhatsApp — 0% commission.
Every property gets a shareable wa.me link and QR code — print it on your visiting card, add it to your Google Business profile, or put it in your Instagram bio.
Guest scans your QR code or taps your wa.me link
Bot asks for dates — guest replies naturally
Dates held while you approve with one reply
Booking confirmed automatically, guest notified
Every enquiry is tracked: dates requested, outcome, and source — so you know which channel drives direct bookings.
OTA bookings still sync automatically — direct bookings just stop costing you 15–20%.

Guest Experience
Keep guests engaged — automatically
Chakrio sends the right message at the right moment, without you lifting a finger.

No templates to set up. No scheduling. No extra app. You just log the booking and Chakrio handles every message at exactly the right time.
Result
Guests feel looked after. Reviews go up. Repeat bookings increase.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Chakrio.
I already use a spreadsheet — why do I need this?+
Spreadsheets work, but they require you to open them, find the right tab, and type every field manually — every single booking. With Chakrio, you just send a message in plain language and the record is created automatically. No switching apps, no formatting, no errors from fat-fingering a date.
What if I have multiple properties?+
Chakrio supports multiple properties under one account. Each property has its own booking records and dashboard. You can switch between them instantly from the same login.
What types of properties can use Chakrio?+
Chakrio is built for dharmshalas (built for pilgrim-town operations — group arrivals, festival rush, and high-volume bookings), boutique hotels, villas, homestays, guesthouses, B&Bs, and vacation rentals. It works for single-property owners and those managing multiple properties. Our first clients include Raghuleela Dham (60 rooms, Goverdhan) and Niva — The Rooted Heaven (Udaipur).
Does Chakrio work outside India?+
WhatsApp works globally, so the bot can receive messages from any country. However, payments (Razorpay), phone number handling, and our onboarding team are currently India-first. If you're based outside India, contact us and we'll advise.
Do I need technical knowledge to use Chakrio?+
None at all. If you can send a text message, you can use Chakrio. You simply type bookings in natural language — the AI handles the rest.
How do I get started?+
We onboard every property personally. Contact us via WhatsApp and we'll get your booking bot live — usually within 24 hours.
How long does setup take?+
Most properties are live within 24 hours of contacting us. We handle the entire setup — bot configuration, dashboard access, and a walkthrough with your team. You don't need to do anything technical.
What if I send a wrong message or make a mistake?+
Just send a correction. For example: "Update Alex check-out to 18th June." Chakrio will find the booking and update it. If you need to cancel, just say so — the bot handles updates, cancellations, and corrections the same way it handles new bookings.
We onboard every property personally.
No setup forms, no waiting room. Book a 20-minute call and we'll have your bookings flowing through WhatsApp the same week.
