**The problem it solves** As travellers shift to AI assistants for travel search, hotels risk losing top-of-funnel visibility to OTAs, and individual properties cannot connect to every emerging AI platform. **What DirectBooker does** DirectBooker is an AI-native aggregation layer that consolidates real-time hotel availability, rates and direct-booking benefits into a single endpoint and delivers them to consumer AI platforms such as ChatGPT and Claude, routing confirmed bookings back to the hotel. **How it works** Hotels or their connectivity partners provide a data feed (or share an existing Google hotel feed); DirectBooker normalises it and serves it via the Model Context Protocol to AI platforms, charging commission only on completed stays. Connectivity partners include eviivo, SiteMinder and DerbySoft. **Who it's for** Hotel brands, chains and independents seeking to reduce OTA dependence and capture AI-search bookings, and connectivity providers extending client distribution into the AI channel.
