Do I have to change or replace my website?
No. You insert one line of code before the closing </body> once, on every page. After that you change appearance and behaviour in the portal without touching the code again. The concierge reads your website but changes nothing on it.
Which site builders does it work on?
On any website where you can add code before </body> or in the footer. The portal has guides for WordPress, Wix, Jimdo, Squarespace and Webflow, and for your own HTML site. Squarespace needs a plan with code injection. You can email the guide to your agency straight from the portal.
How long does set-up take?
Start and Pro can usually be set up on the same day, because the system reads your website itself and you only confirm. If you would rather have someone on screen with you, personal help by video costs €120 an hour; Pro includes one hour.
Do guests see it while I am testing?
No. While your property is in test mode, the window only appears when you open your website with ?hoheit_preview=1 at the end of the address. You switch it live yourself on the portal overview once the data processing agreement is signed.
How does it know which rooms are free?
In Start from the iCal calendar per unit, as exported by Airbnb, Booking.com, Smoobu, Lodgify or Beds24. In Pro it asks Smoobu or Lodgify directly for free units and the price for the dates. If a calendar cannot be read it says “unknown”, never “free”.
Can it book in my booking system?
No, on purpose. It names free units and prices as the current position, takes the enquiry with dates and contact details and leads to your booking page. It never accepts payment details.
Which languages does it answer in?
The language the guest writes in. You keep the knowledge base in your own language. The window’s interface exists in German, English and Croatian; it starts in German, and in English or Croatian with data-lang.
What happens when it does not know something?
It says so honestly, logs the question as open and offers to pass it on to your team. You answer the question once in the portal and from then on it knows. Complaints, groups of more than eight, health and legal matters always go to you.
Is this compatible with the EU AI Act?
The concierge meets the transparency duty of Art. 50: it introduces itself as an AI in a fixed greeting, the notice stays visible in the window, and your property gets its own transparency page. We sign a data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR with every customer. This is not legal advice.
What does it cost on my existing website?
The same as anywhere: Start €149 and Pro €349 a month, net, no set-up fee, the first 7 days free, then cancel monthly. Concierge House is a project from €5,000. The Host package includes Concierge Start.
