Why Oaky and Quicktext makes sense

  • 25% of customers’ conversations via Quicktext’s chatbot are requests for extra services such as airport transfers, early check-ins or room upgrades. Integrating Oaky with Quicktext means that these very things can be confirmed and arranged automatically.
  • On its own, the Quicktext chatbot would email the request to a hotel staff member to manually process, creating unplanned work for the staff member and potentially sitting unanswered for hours on end.
  • Oaky’s easy-to-use service booking system appears within the Quicktext chat, whether on one’s site, Facebook or Whatsapp. This means that 25% of requests will be arranged without the need for staff attention.

Why chatbots?

Chatbots have been around for some time now, but huge advances are being made by innovators like Quicktext, a company working to enhance the chatbot experience for us all.

Consumer habits are reflecting a growing adoption of chatbots across 18 to 34-year-olds, largely attributed to the efficiency of swiftly provided answers. We predict that, as these bots grow smarter and a new generation of travelers take flight, the all-seeing, all-knowing chatbot will become even more entrenched into hotel communications.

In the meantime, we need to keep on our toes to ensure we are constantly adapting and placing solutions where people can reach them best. Our Quicktext integration allows us to offer our deals within the chat, as solutions to frequently asked questions.
