Dynamic pricing sets rates. Sentinel audits them.
Every night, against your true competitors, your reviews and last year. Then it tells you what to fix first, ranked by what it's costing you.
Connect your dynamic pricing account. Your first audit is ready in 10 minutes.
Built on deterministic logic. No black boxes.
Sentinel is a revenue management decision engine for short-term rental operators, built by the team at Angel Host. It sits on top of dynamic pricing tools such as PriceLabs, Wheelhouse and your property management system, watches thousands of signals across your portfolio, and surfaces one prioritized action at a time: which nights to move, by how much, and why. Revenue managers approve, snooze or decline every recommendation. Nothing changes without a human's yes.

Data scales. Attention doesn't.
As your portfolio grows, dashboards multiply. Spreadsheets pile up. Important signals get missed. The result is silent leakage, weekends sold too early, weekdays ignored, booking windows missed, and discounts applied where they weren't needed.
Most decision makers don't lack data. They lack clarity.
Why dynamic pricing engines fall short
Your pricing tool sets a rate for every night. It can't tell you which ones are off.
Revenue teams don't fail because they lack skill. They fail because attention doesn't scale. As portfolios grow, signals fragment across tools, reports, and dashboards.
Important opportunities get delayed, debated, or overlooked entirely. Even strong teams end up reacting instead of acting proactively.
Not another dashboard. A decision engine.
Sentinel watches thousands of signals across your portfolio and tells you exactly what to do next, and why.

One action at a time
Sentinel surfaces the single most important thing to act on, never a list of options to sort through.
Clear reasoning
Every recommendation explains the signal, the lever, and the expected revenue impact, so approving takes seconds.
Audited every night.
Every rate on every listing, checked against the market, your true competitors and last year, every day. You only see what needs a decision.
True Comps
The listings you actually compete with. Not the neighborhood average.
Pricing tools price you against every listing nearby. Guests don't shop that way. Sentinel picks the 20 to 30 listings a guest really compares you with, puts them on a map, and shows where you sit against them on occupancy and price. Their occupancy feeds every pricing recommendation. You can edit the set any time.
- Ahead on occupancy: 6 of 29, comps you out-book, next 30 nights
- Review score: 4.82, vs 4.71 for the set
- Occupancy next 30 days: 50%, true comp set 73% over the same nights
- MPI, you vs set: 0.68, your comps are booking well ahead of you
- Search rank: 112 of 177, comps median rank: 64, same search
- Biggest amenity gap: Dishwasher, 23 of 29 offer it
Where your occupancy sits in the true comp set
24th of 30 listings. Next 30 nights, ahead of 6 of 29. Top of set 100%, set median 73%, you 50%, bottom of set 20%. 23 points below the set median.
Where your pricing sits in the true comp set
86% of the set is priced below you. Priced above 25 of 29. Top of set +116%, set median 0%, you +45%, bottom of set -43%. You charge 45% above the set median and book 23 points below it. That gap is what Sentinel prices into.
Picked for you, fixed by you
Sentinel scans every listing nearby and keeps the 20 to 30 a guest would actually compare you with. Disagree with one? Swap it.
Occupancy, night by night
See which of your competitors are still open for a given night and how fast the set is filling. Their occupancy feeds every pricing recommendation.
Price position, stay by stay
Where your nightly price sits against the set across the next stay windows, so you know when you are leaving money on the table.
Rank and amenity gaps
Your search rank against the set's, and the one amenity most of them have that you don't. Small fixes with outsized effect.
Transparent decisions you can defend.
Sentinel is built on deterministic logic and proprietary IP developed from managing thousands of listings across markets worldwide. AI is used where it adds real value: insight, pattern recognition, and explanation.
That means no unexplained actions, and no mysterious flags. Every recommendation is clear, consistent, and grounded in logic you can understand and trust.
Deterministic logic
Every recommendation is consistent and reproducible. Same inputs, same outputs.
No black boxes
No mysterious flags that only an AI knows why they were raised. Every decision is transparent.
Defensible decisions
Logic you can explain to owners, defend in meetings, and trust to scale.
You stay in control
Revenue managers make the final call. Sentinel ensures focus goes to highest-value decisions first.
Built for the people who answer for the numbers.
One platform. Three kinds of teams. The same promise: less noise, better decisions.
Owner-Operators
The problem: drowning in dashboards and spreadsheets with no clear answer on where to act first.
How Sentinel helps: more time running your business.
Revenue Teams
The problem: signals fragment across tools. Important opportunities get delayed or missed entirely.
How Sentinel helps: faster decisions at scale.
Property Management Companies
The problem: decision quality drops as portfolios grow. Teams react instead of acting proactively.
How Sentinel helps: better results across more listings.
Better decisions. Higher revenue.
Sentinel highlights what often gets missed when teams are overwhelmed by dashboards and spreadsheets. The result is clearer decisions, consistent execution, and higher revenues, without living in dashboards.
- Fix the biggest revenue leaks first
- Less time analyzing, more time acting
- Clear explanations owners understand
- Decision quality that scales with portfolio size
- Consistent execution across your entire portfolio

Priced right. Still losing bookings? Listing Sentinel finds out why.
Pricing isn't the whole story. A listing can be priced perfectly and still underperform because the content is stale: an old cover photo, an outdated title, an amenity list missing what guests search for. Listing Sentinel catches the gap and tells you exactly what to fix.

Scored, then graded A through F
Title, description, photos, amenities, and target market fit each get a score, translated into a simple letter grade so you know exactly what's holding a listing back.
Reports run on your cadence
Listing IQ reports generate automatically on the schedule you set, monthly, quarterly, or every six months. No manual runs required.
Share it with anyone
Every report is shareable with a no-login link, ready to send to an owner or print as a PDF.
Listing Sentinel vs. a listing optimization agent
| Listing Sentinel | AI Listing Optimization Agent | |
|---|---|---|
| What triggers a review? | Real portfolio performance signals, not a routine check. | Manual runs, or general tooling not tied to any one listing. |
| What does it check? | Title, description, photos, amenities, and target market fit, each scored and graded A through F, plus accuracy checks (mismatches, stale claims) that run regardless of grade. | Similar surface area, but not tied to performance. |
| Can it push changes live? | Never, by design. Every fix is human-approved (Decline, Snooze, or Approve). | Depends on the tool. Only if it's already built into your PMS with write access. |
| What do you get over time? | Automatic portfolio reports on your cadence, plus a shareable no-login link. | One-time or on-demand output, generally not recurring. |
The key difference: Listing Sentinel ties every recommendation to real listing performance and never touches a listing without your approval. It works alongside your PMS and pricing tools, not in place of them.
