Last-Minute Rebooker

Every day a cancelled night sits empty is revenue you never get back. Last-Minute Rebooker fires within seconds of a cancellation, reprices the freed nights against the comp forward rates for those exact dates rather than the original rate, and refills the calendar. Small drops apply on their own, bigger ones wait for your nod, and every change has a two-hour undo.

How to use this template

  1. Hire the template in your Sidekicks dashboard
  2. Connect your PMS, AirROI, and PriceLabs
  3. Set your autopilot band and your price floor
  4. Go live, small drops auto-apply with an undo and big ones ask first

What this does

  • Fires within seconds of a cancellation webhook, because lost runway compounds every day
  • Prices against the comp forward rates for those exact nights, not the original rate that is just anchoring bias
  • Sizes the drop by urgency, the ratio of days left to the market's typical lead time
  • Applies a small drop on its own with a two-hour undo, and asks you before a big one
  • Holds firm on a known event or holiday week, dropping the minimum instead of the price

Saves

  • The runway lost to a cancellation that sat untouched for a day before anyone repriced it
  • The overcorrection of matching the old rate, replaced with the real forward market for those dates

Workflow

Trigger
The moment a booking cancels
Fires on the cancellation webhook within 30 seconds, while there is still runway to refill the nights.
Tool call
Price the freed nights
airroi_find_comparables() + airroi_listing_future_rates() · the comp forward rates for exactly the dates that opened up, not the rate the cancelled guest paid.
Prompt
Size the drop by urgency
Computes the urgency ratio from days left over the market's median lead time, and picks the target from the comp percentiles, more aggressive the tighter it gets.
Draft
Set the new price
Writes a date-specific override to PriceLabs for just those nights, dropping the minimum where it helps, and holding full price on an event week.
Approval
You stay in control
A drop within your band applies on its own with a two-hour undo. A bigger one waits for your one-tap approval, and it always honors your price floor.
