One inbox for guest messages

A guest question is usually a booking trying to happen. "Is the pool heated in May" means someone is already picturing themselves there in May. The Inbox exists so that question never sinks under everything else you do in a day.

Everything in one place

The Inbox gathers your guest conversations into one list of threads: website chat, email, WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram and SMS, with your Airbnb and Booking.com messages alongside. No more one question in your email, another scribbled by the phone. And when volume grows, the Concierge app can draft replies for you, channel by channel. Unread counts show on the navigation badge, so wherever you are in the admin, you can see whether something is waiting for you.

Statuses keep the list honest

Every conversation has a status: open, pending or closed. Open means it needs someone. Pending means you are waiting on something, maybe the guest, maybe the plumber. Closed means done. Work the open ones down to zero and you can shut the laptop knowing nothing is quietly rotting at the bottom of a pile.

Every thread gets an owner

Conversations can be assigned to team members. This is the difference between "someone will reply" and "Maria will reply". A thread with a name on it gets answered. A thread that belongs to everyone belongs to no one, and the guest hears nothing while two people each assume the other has it covered.

Context arrives attached

Each thread links to the guest's contact record and their bookings. When a guest writes "can we arrive earlier", you can see who they are, when they are coming and what they have paid, without hunting through three other screens. Your reply takes one minute instead of ten, and it reads like it came from someone who knows them. Because now you do.

None of this requires a new routine beyond one rule: every message gets a status and an owner before you move on. Guests notice the difference within a week, even if they never learn why you suddenly answer so fast.
