What is RateGain?

Demand.AI (by RateGain) is a sophisticated revenue management system designed to help hoteliers optimize their pricing strategies and boost revenue. The platform provides detailed market intelligence reports, enabling users to anticipate demand for the next 75 days and identify which localities will experience demand surges. It streamlines dynamic rate management and enhances channel performance with practical tools such as Rate Shopping and Channel Manager.
