SiteMinder AI agent
Ecco can use hotel distribution and channel management context from SiteMinder in guest conversations when an approved connection is available. Confirm channels and actions for your setup with our team.
What is a SiteMinder AI agent?
SiteMinder supports hotel distribution and channel management. An Ecco AI agent can use authorized availability, rate and reservation context made available through an approved connection to give hospitality guests faster, more consistent answers.
When a guest calls or messages, Ecco understands the request and uses only the systems, permissions and configuration enabled for that property. SiteMinder remains the system used by the team for its core operational role.
Exact capabilities depend on the connection available. Ecco can answer, collect details, route work or hand the conversation to a person without claiming unsupported access or actions.
