CohostSTR connects your AI assistant to your Guesty account. You ask in plain English and it does the Guesty work for you. It finds every guest still waiting on a reply, writes the arrival message with the door code and directions from your own listing, builds tomorrow’s turnover list and drafts your review replies. You approve every change before it happens.
It works when you ask it, on your computer. Nothing runs on its own, and nothing sends without your OK.
Based on Guesty's public documentation (updated August 22, 2026).
Ask in plain English. Your AI reads Guesty, makes the change, and confirms it.
Messages containing a phone number, email, off-platform payment or a "book direct" nudge are held before they send, because Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com suspend listings for them.
Reads the thread and reservation, then replies through Guesty.
"Reply to the guest in the Loft asking about early check-in."
Occupancy in, new rates out.
"Drop next month's half-empty weekends by 10%."
Availability updated without opening the dashboard.
"Block the lake house Dec 24–26."
Tasks, expenses and reservation notes on request.
"Cleaning task after tomorrow's checkout at Unit 4."
Drafts use your listing's real check-in time, access notes and house rules, and say "I'll check" instead of inventing an answer.
Pull reviews across channels and draft the replies. Owner statements, revenue summaries and reservation financials on demand.
"Raise December weekends 15% across all cabins." Your AI app asks before each change runs, so you approve every edit first.
No account with us. No license key. Your Guesty credentials stay on your computer.
Create an Open API client ID and secret in your Guesty account. API access depends on your Guesty plan.
Paste a few lines into Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code. It starts automatically with npx.
"Reply to tonight's arrivals with parking info." Your AI reads Guesty and makes the change.
Add this to your MCP client's config (Claude Desktop: Settings → Developer → Edit Config), then restart it.

The connector is free. The setup kit takes you from “what’s an API key?” to asking your AI “who’s waiting on me?” It comes with the workflows hosts use every day.
Replies to your guests from your own listing details. It starts in approval mode, so you OK each draft. Money, refunds, damage, complaints and date changes always wait for you. It runs on your computer with your own keys.
Requires a paid Hospitable plan (Host, Professional or Mogul). Hospitable’s free Essentials plan can’t connect apps. Not yet available to buy: we open sales once Hospitable approves our app. CohostSTR is not affiliated with or endorsed by Hospitable.
Leave your email and we'll send you the setup details and the founding code. No card needed.
Guesty's server is in beta and read-only: your AI can look up and summarize data but cannot create, update or delete anything. CohostSTR can also act: send guest messages, change pricing and availability, create reservations, tasks and expenses.
Yes. The server is MIT-licensed open source and all 44 tools are free. The setup kit is a one-time payment, not a subscription, and the open-source server stays free. Autopilot for Hospitable (coming soon) will be a separate monthly plan.
The server runs on your own computer with your own Guesty API credentials, which never pass through us. MCP clients such as Claude Desktop ask you to approve tool calls before they run, so you see each change before it happens.
Any app that supports MCP servers running locally: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code and others.
An Open API client ID and secret from your Guesty account. Open API access depends on your Guesty plan. You connect CohostSTR with your own Guesty API access, under Guesty’s terms.
