Announcing Portfolio-Wide Hierarchies: Smarter Data Insights Across Related Listings

At GPTPricing, data is the cornerstone of our pricing algorithms. Whether it’s market data, hotel data, comps data, or your own historical data, we’ve built a system that relies on accurate and comprehensive inputs. Now, we’re taking it to the next level with Portfolio-Wide Hierarchies, a revolutionary feature that pulls insights not just from your listings but also from similar listings in your city and beyond.

This innovation provides a deeper and broader perspective on key metrics, enabling smarter pricing decisions and enhanced portfolio performance.

Smarter Revenue Predictions with Portfolio-Wide Data

One of the most significant challenges in revenue management is predicting the balance between long-stay and short-stay bookings. Long stays tend to be booked farther in advance, often at discounted rates, while short stays typically have shorter lead times but command higher prices. Accurately forecasting this balance is crucial for optimizing pricing.

With Portfolio-Wide Hierarchies, GPTPricing enhances these predictions by analyzing not only your historical data but also data from:

• Similar Listings in the Same City: These insights provide localized context, reflecting trends and behaviors specific to your market.

• Similar Listings in Other Cities: For properties with comparable unit types in different locations, this data helps refine predictions by identifying patterns that transcend geographic boundaries.

For example, by analyzing long-lead-time, discounted bookings in one city, we can better estimate the proportion of shorter, higher-priced bookings in another city with a similar unit type. This cross-referenced data strengthens forecasts, providing a more accurate picture of future demand.

Beyond Revenue Predictions: Enhancing Key Parameters

Portfolio-Wide Hierarchies extend their benefits beyond revenue forecasts, improving estimates for critical parameters like:

• Expected Length of Stay: By pooling data from similar listings, we refine the calculations used to create the Edge Score, ensuring smarter decisions about pricing and availability.

• Lead Time Behavior: Data from other listings helps account for disproportionate booking behaviors, such as the longer lead times of discounted long stays versus the shorter lead times of high-demand short stays.

This comprehensive data hierarchy ensures that every parameter in the algorithm is informed by the most relevant and robust data possible.

Why Portfolio-Wide Hierarchies Matter

This new feature transforms how data informs your pricing strategy. Key benefits include:

1. Enhanced Accuracy: Leverage insights from related listings to fine-tune revenue forecasts and key parameters.

2. Market Context: Incorporate localized trends and cross-city patterns for a deeper understanding of booking behaviors.

3. Smarter Pricing Decisions: Refined estimates lead to better rates, optimized occupancy, and increased revenue.

4. Portfolio-Wide Optimization: Align pricing strategies across your portfolio, ensuring consistency and maximizing returns.

A New Era of Data-Driven Revenue Management

With Portfolio-Wide Hierarchies, GPTPricing ensures that your pricing decisions are guided by the most comprehensive and relevant data available. By pulling insights from related listings in your city and beyond, we provide a clearer picture of future demand and unlock smarter strategies for optimizing your portfolio.
