In short

How can I automatically respond to vacation rental inquiries within minutes?

The moment a new inquiry arrives in Lodgify, WebRun reads the requested dates, checks availability, and drafts a warm, personalized reply with pricing and a booking link in Gmail for your review. Every inquiry is also logged in Google Sheets so no lead is ever missed or left unanswered.

  • Potential guests get a personalized response within minutes, not hours or the next day
  • Fewer inquiries go cold because a reply was delayed while you were busy
  • No inquiry is ever lost because it was never logged or followed up

Questions, answered

Will it reply to the guest automatically without my approval?

No. WebRun drafts the response in Gmail and leaves it unsent. You review and send, so every message to a potential guest goes out with your approval.

What if the requested dates are not available?

WebRun notes the unavailability and drafts a reply that offers alternate available dates nearby, so you do not lose the lead even when the first choice is taken.

Does it work for inquiries from Airbnb or Vrbo, not just Lodgify?

If your Airbnb or Vrbo listings are connected to Lodgify and inquiries flow through there, WebRun picks them up. Inquiries that arrive only on those platforms directly would need their own channel connected.
