Smart Host is a B2B SaaS platform in the hospitality industry. We empower hotels to put their data to work. We collect, clean, and enrich guest data from both internal and external data sources. Combining this data with analytics and multi-channel messaging allows us to take guest communication and marketing efforts to a new level. Our typical clients are not necessarily tech-savvy, so it's on us to skyrocket them into the digital marketing age by simplifying the experience to the maximum through great usability.
