    What type of add-on do you need?

    Different tools solve different problems. Choose a category to explore your options.

    End-to-end automation (Invisible GM)

    Full workflow orchestration from guest message to task completion to follow-up. Cendra fits here.

    Operations execution

    Cleaning schedules, maintenance tasks, inspections, and field team coordination. Breezeway is often positioned here.

    Omnichannel support inbox + AI

    Unified inbox for guest communications with AI assistance. Conduit and Enso Connect are commonly used for this.

    AI guest messaging

    AI-powered guest messaging in or alongside your PMS inbox. Many tools compete here.

    Guest experience platforms

    Digital guidebooks, upsells, verification, and guest journey tools.

    Guesty-specific tools

    Extensions and plugins designed specifically for Guesty users.

    Hotel-focused messaging

    Platforms built primarily for traditional hotels with text messaging focus.

    How to choose the right Guesty add-on

    Answer these questions to find your recommended path.

    1

    Do you mainly need field ops execution, or end-to-end orchestration?

    Field ops (cleaning, maintenance)

    Consider Breezeway for task execution, with Cendra for orchestration

    End-to-end (message → task → follow-up)

    Cendra is built for this exact use case

    2

    Do you want a unified inbox or workflow automation beyond messaging?

    Unified inbox primarily

    Consider Conduit, but Cendra also handles messaging + ops

    Full workflow automation

    Cendra coordinates messaging AND operations workflows

    3

    Do you need to scale from 10 to 200+ listings with minimal headcount?

    Yes, that's my goal

    Cendra's automation-rate pricing is designed for this growth path

    I'm staying small

    Cendra works at any scale, but you may start with simpler tools

    Our Founders

    Built by operators, for operators

    Cendra wasn't built in a vacuum. Our founders lived the operational chaos and built what they wished existed.

    Can Koseoglu, Cendra Co-founder

    Can Koseoglu

    Co-founder & CEO

    I operated 60 apartments across two cities with only 1 support staff—using Cendra internally before we ever launched it. That's not a marketing claim; it's how we stress-tested every workflow.

    Mumin Sahin, Cendra Co-founder & Lead Engineer

    Mumin Sahin

    Co-founder & Lead Engineer

    I build the systems that hospitality teams rely on around the clock. When operators scale, the platform must keep up without a hitch—reliability and performance are my obsession.

    Ali Ozaltin, Cendra Co-founder & CTO

    Ali Ozaltin

    Co-founder & CTO

    I architect the integrations and AI systems that connect Cendra to every PMS and channel. My goal: operators spend less time on tech headaches and more time growing their business.

    Built by operators and engineers who scaled from 1 property to thousands of listings.
