Hotel software from Twinlite

The building. The guest. The shift.

Three products that run the parts of a hotel your property management system doesn’t. Halo looks after the building. Lark looks after the guest. Clocky looks after the shift.

Everything already knows.

Your property system holds the rooms and the stays. Your team is who does the work. All three products read from both, so nobody re-types what the hotel already knows and nothing goes stale in a second copy.

Every line here is live. Nothing waits for a nightly file and nothing gets typed in twice. Lark sits under both because that is where the guest and the team meet.

Three products, one hotel.

Anyone can sell you three apps. What matters is what happens where they touch, and here they touch in three places that save your team a job each.

One housekeeping list.

When a guest leaves, Halo puts the clean on the list. When a guest asks for the room to be made up, Lark puts it on the same list. Your housekeeper works from one list, in one app, and never has to be told which system it came from.

Nobody types it twice.

Mews stays the single record of the room and the stay. Halo reads it to know who is arriving; Lark reads it to show the guest their bill and writes back what the guest asks for. There is no second copy sitting somewhere, quietly going out of date.

One set of devices.

The tablets in the rooms and the phones in your team’s pockets are set up the same way, from the same place. Opening a new floor, or starting someone new, is a few minutes of admin. Not an afternoon with a box of cables.

How it actually works.

The easiest way to explain any of this is to walk through an ordinary day. Here is what happens, and what nobody has to do about it.

Halo

Looks after the building.

A hotel spends money on rooms nobody is in and time on rooms nobody has checked. Halo knows which rooms are occupied and which are not, and quietly acts on it: putting cleans on the list, getting rooms ready for the people arriving, and letting the air rest in the ones that are empty.

A guest checks out and leaves.
The room works out that it is empty, waits long enough to be certain, and adds itself to the housekeeping list. Nobody walks the corridor knocking on doors.
The housekeeper finishes and moves on.
The room notices that too, and marks itself ready. The front desk can sell it without anyone radioing upstairs to confirm.
A room sits empty all afternoon.
It stops heating and cooling itself. Before the next guest arrives it warms back up, so they walk into a comfortable room instead of a cold one that is only just starting.
Something is off in a room.
Stuffy air, too warm, too humid, or a room that has simply gone quiet. The right person is told while it is still a small thing, rather than after a guest complains.

Lark

Looks after the guest.

The in-room phone costs money every month and gives the guest one thing to do with it: ring the desk and ask a question the desk cannot always answer. Lark is the tablet that replaces it. The hotel, the bill, the requests and reception, all in the guest’s own language.

A guest wants more towels at eleven at night.
Two taps by the bed. It lands on the team’s list straight away, and the guest can see it has been received, so nobody rings down to check whether anyone heard.
A guest does not want to be disturbed.
One switch in the room. Housekeeping sees it, the room record knows it, and the guest still gets the call if the front desk genuinely needs them.
A guest wonders what they have spent.
The bill is right there, up to date, without a phone call. If it all looks right they can check out from the room and walk straight past the queue in the morning.
A guest does not speak English.
The whole thing switches language in one tap, and so does everything they send to your team. The request still arrives in a form your team can act on.

Clocky

Looks after the shift.

Hours are the biggest controllable cost in a hotel and usually the least visible until payroll. Clocky captures them at the moment they happen, on the phone your team already carries, and turns the end of the week into a download instead of an evening of chasing paper.

Someone starts their shift.
They open the app, it takes a photo, and they are on. It quietly satisfies itself that they are where they should be, and tells them “clocked in”. That is the whole interaction.
Something does not add up.
Nobody gets stopped. The shift starts as normal and the manager gets it in a review queue, with the time and a photo attached, to approve or correct later.
Friday comes around.
Payroll is a file you download, for whatever dates you want, built from what actually happened rather than from what somebody wrote down afterwards.
You want to know whether the rota held.
Planned against actual is one screen, because the rota and the clock are the same record. You can see where the hours went before the month closes, not after.

What stops happening.

We are not going to quote you a savings figure we cannot yet stand behind. What we can name exactly is the work that disappears, and where it used to sit.

Why we built it ourselves.

We run hotels, so we buy hotel software. And we kept finding the same gap between what was on the market and what the building actually needed. So we started building the difference, and we have not stopped looking for the next piece of it.

We use it before we sell it.

Every one of these runs in our own building first. If it makes a shift harder rather than easier, we find out ourselves, on a Tuesday, before anyone else has to live with it.

It has to work when things do not.

Connections drop and services have bad days. When that happens the guest should still get their towels and the shift should still start on time. Nothing waits on a perfect network.

The technology should be invisible.

A guest should see a tablet that does what they expect. A housekeeper should see a list. Nobody on the floor should have to know or care what sits behind it.

Every hotel is different. None of them are special.

What changes between properties is a setting, not a rebuild. The second hotel takes an afternoon to configure, which is the whole point of building it this way.

Automate only what you would otherwise ask someone to do.

We are not interested in clever for its own sake. Each of these exists because it removes a specific job somebody was doing by hand, and we can name the job.

Built around Mews.

Your property system should stay the single source of truth for rooms and stays. We read from it and write back to it rather than asking you to keep a second set of books.
