Multilingual Support

Can the AI Phone Agent handle multilingual inquiries?

Yes. The AI Phone Agent supports multilingual inquiries, helping businesses serve international customers more efficiently.
The Basic Plan includes five core languages:

  • English
  • Japanese
  • Chinese
  • Korean
  • Indonesian

Additional languages can be added based on business needs. This helps hotels and service businesses provide consistent support across different guest segments and markets.

How do guests switch languages?

Guests do not need to press any buttons or select a language from a menu.
They can simply speak in their preferred language, and the system will detect the spoken language automatically.
Once the language is identified, the AI Call Agent responds in the same language whenever supported.

Setup, Knowledge Base, and Performance

How long does it take to deploy an AI Call Agent?

On average, it takes about one week to deploy the AI Call Agent effectively.
The setup process usually includes:

  • Collecting hotel information
  • Reviewing peak-season call patterns
  • Building FAQ and knowledge cards
  • Verifying answers
  • Conducting internal and external call testing
  • Connecting the AI with the required phone or hotel systems

A key part of the setup is building the Knowledge Management System, or KMS. The KMS acts like a permanent briefing system for the AI Call Agent. Once hotel information is added or updated in the KMS, the AI can immediately use the latest verified information when responding to callers.
For example, if a guest calls to request an extra bath mat, the AI can check whether the item is available in the KMS. If confirmed, it can automatically create a delivery task for staff or a service robot.

How can I check whether the AI Call Agent is answering correctly?

You can monitor AI Call Agent performance through the Aiello Knowledge Management System.
The dashboard allows you to review key metrics and identify knowledge gaps, including:

  • Top intents: See why guests are calling, such as breakfast hours, room cleaning, or Wi-Fi access.
  • Current issues: Identify questions that the AI could not answer because the KMS does not yet contain the required information.
  • Service coverage: Check the percentage of inquiries successfully answered by the AI.
  • Service health score: Review the completeness, consistency, and quality of your knowledge base.

If the AI fails to answer a question, the issue can be reviewed and added to the relevant knowledge card, helping the system improve over time.

What happens if the AI Phone Agent is asked something it does not know?

If the AI encounters a complex request, emergency, or question outside its knowledge base, it can transfer the call to a live agent or a designated phone line.
The system also tracks unanswered or failed questions automatically. Your team can review these cases in the Knowledge Management System and add the correct information, allowing the AI to answer similar questions more accurately in the future.
The AI is designed to work together with human staff, not replace them entirely.

What are the key performance checkpoints after launch?

After launch, businesses can evaluate the AI Call Agent using several key performance indicators.
Important checkpoints include:

  • Missed call reduction: Fewer guest inquiries go unanswered.
  • Answer accuracy: The AI provides correct and consistent answers based on verified information.
  • Multilingual performance: The AI recognizes and responds to supported languages accurately.
  • Automation rate: More guest requests are answered or processed without human intervention.
  • Task creation success: Guest requests are correctly converted into service tickets when system integration is enabled.
  • Knowledge coverage: The KMS continues to improve as unanswered questions are reviewed and added.

These metrics help teams understand whether the AI Call Agent is improving service efficiency, reducing staff workload, and maintaining guest satisfaction.

Hotel System Integration

What hotel systems can the AI Call Agent integrate with?

The AI Call Agent can integrate with a hotel’s core operational systems, turning phone conversations into real-time actions. Common integrations include:

Task Management Systems
The AI can connect with Aiello TMS Pro or third-party task management systems. It can automatically create and dispatch service tickets, such as extra towel requests, air-conditioning issues, late check-out requests, or amenity delivery tasks.

Property Management Systems and Booking Systems
Through PMS, CRS, or booking engine integrations, the AI can support workflows such as:

  • Confirming reservation details
  • Verifying guest information
  • Handling OTA booking confirmation calls
  • Supporting room availability inquiries

PBX and Telephony Infrastructure
The AI can integrate with existing PBX or cloud telephony systems, allowing hotels to deploy AI call handling without replacing their current phone infrastructure.

Additional Systems
Depending on the property’s needs, the AI can also integrate with:

  • POS or in-room dining systems
  • CRM platforms
  • Call center dashboards
  • Analytics platforms
  • Other hotel operation systems

Aiello uses an Open API architecture, which allows the AI Call Agent to connect with additional systems based on each hotel’s workflow. The goal is simple: the AI should adapt to the hotel’s operations, not the other way around.

How does the AI Phone Agent help with booking confirmations?

The AI Phone Agent can help streamline OTA and direct booking confirmation calls.
For example, when a guest calls to confirm whether a third-party reservation from platforms such as Booking.com or Expedia has been received, the AI can collect the guest’s details, check the relevant system, and confirm the booking status.
If the guest wants to make a new reservation, modify an existing booking, or discuss a more complex request, the AI can identify the intent and transfer the call to the reservation team.

Technical Architecture

What technologies power the AI Phone Agent?

The AI Phone Agent is powered by several key technology layers.

Voice Interaction Layer
This layer allows the AI to listen and speak naturally.

  • STT, or Speech-to-Text, converts the caller’s speech into text.
  • TTS, or Text-to-Speech, allows the AI to respond with a natural voice.


Core Intelligence Layer

This layer helps the AI understand context and manage the conversation.

  • Large Language Models help the AI understand meaning, intent, and conversational flow.
  • Hospitality-specific natural language processing helps the AI understand hotel terminology and guest service scenarios.


Knowledge and Decision Layer

This layer controls what the AI knows and what action it should take.

  • The Knowledge Management System stores verified hotel information, SOPs, FAQs, and approved answers.
  • The orchestration engine decides whether the AI should answer a question, transfer a call, or trigger an automated workflow.

Together, these technologies allow the AI Call Agent to understand caller needs, provide accurate answers, and connect conversations with hotel operations.

Security, Capacity, and Pricing

How does Aiello ensure data security and privacy?

Aiello has obtained ISO 27001 information security certification.
ISO 27001 is an internationally recognized standard for Information Security Management Systems. It certifies that an organization has implemented controls to manage information security risks and protect data confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
This helps ensure that Aiello follows rigorous security practices when handling business and guest-related data.

How many AI agents do I need?

The number of AI agents you need depends on your phone line capacity and expected call volume.
One AI line can handle one inbound or outbound conversation at a time.
For properties with higher call volume, especially during peak periods such as morning check-out or evening room service hours, multiple AI lines may be required.
For example, large-volume properties handling 300 to 500 calls per day during peak season may require around 10 AI lines to cover rush-hour demand.
Aiello can analyze your historical call data and recommend the optimal number of AI lines, helping you avoid busy signals while controlling unnecessary costs.

What is the pricing structure for the AI Call Agent?

The AI Call Agent pricing structure usually includes two main parts: an initial implementation fee and a recurring monthly subscription.
One-Time Implementation Fee
