Built for a family business
The property you actually run
Most hospitality software is written for a hotel with a revenue manager, a distribution manager and an IT budget. Almost no property in this region is that hotel. Caravanserai OS is written for the one that is.
Five to forty rooms
The size of nearly every guesthouse, boutique hotel and family property on the Silk Road routes. That is the design target, not an afterthought.
The family is the staff
One person on the desk who is also the one ordering breakfast. Every screen assumes that, and nothing requires a department that does not exist.
Your languages
Uzbek, Russian and English across the whole product — the guest-facing pages and the back office alike. Not a translation layer bolted on after launch.
Your data is yours
Guest list, rate history and demand signal, exportable whenever you want, in a format you can read. Leaving is always possible; that is what makes staying meaningful.
Never a commission
A flat subscription by room count when the pilot ends. The whole argument falls apart if we replace one percentage with another.
Free through the pilot
Founding cohort properties pay nothing during the corridor pilot, and help set what the product becomes.
What Caravanserai OS is
Four pieces, one system
A property system, a booking channel, an agent-readable inventory feed and local settlement — designed together, because splitting them is what created the toll in the first place.
Your own booking channel
A direct booking page for your property, in your languages, with your rates and your cancellation terms. The guest's name, email and history stay with you — because the relationship is yours, not an intermediary's.
- No rate-parity clause
- Your guest list, exported any time
- Deposits and confirmations in local currency
A property system that fits a family business
Front desk, rooms, housekeeping, rates and a clean nightly close — sized for a property of five to forty rooms run by the family that owns it, not for a chain with a revenue department.
- Works on a phone at the front desk
- Uzbek, Russian and English throughout
- Learnable in an afternoon, not a quarter
Readable by the agents that book travel next
Your rooms, rates and availability published on open protocols, so that when a traveller's assistant plans a Silk Road route it can find and book you directly — without you buying a place in somebody's index.
- Open protocols, published not licensed
- Built on the ADAPT Alliance standard
- Discoverable without paying for placement
Settlement designed to stay in the region
Payment flows intended to clear in-region and in local currency, so the money for a night in Khiva is in a Khiva account — not in a foreign float account for sixty days.
- Local currency, local accounts
- Payout terms you can actually plan against
- Pilot design — proven on the corridor first
Founding cohort
Twenty properties, one corridor, one season
We are looking for family-run properties on the Samarkand–Bukhara–Khiva route willing to run a real season on a new channel and tell us the truth about it.
An email address is all it takes to start. We reply to every application.
What you get
- No cost for the entire pilot season
- Your own direct booking page, set up with you
- Your commission baseline measured honestly, before and after
- A direct line to the people building it, and real influence over what ships
What we ask
- A real property with real bookings — not a test listing
- Your actual numbers, so the baseline means something
- Honest feedback, including when something does not work
- Patience with early software, and the willingness to say so publicly if it earns it
