Real Examples

What you can say to your AI

Natural language commands that trigger real actions through the Vanio skill.

“What’s happening at my properties today?”

Your AI calls get_current_reservations, pulls today’s check-ins and check-outs, and summarizes who’s arriving, who’s leaving, and any tasks that need attention.

“Send a welcome message to all guests checking in today.”

Loops through today’s arrivals, calls send_guest_message for each. Messages auto-route to Airbnb, Booking.com, email, or SMS based on the booking platform.

“Create a cleaning task for the Sunset Villa checkout.”

Creates a task with category “cleaning”, assigns it to the configured cleaner, sets priority, and attaches the reservation context.

“Generate a lock code for Sarah’s reservation.”

Calls create_access_code with the reservation dates. Code auto-activates at check-in time and expires at checkout.

“What did Vanio AI decide about the noise complaint?”

Pulls get_ai_decisions for the reservation, showing the AI’s reasoning, the actions it took, and the outcome.

“Refund $50 to the guest at Lake House.”

Finds the reservation, calls refund_payment with the amount, and processes the refund through Stripe. Logged in the timeline.

Why Vanio

Cross-system intelligence in one skill

Because Vanio is one integrated system, your AI can do things that separate tools never could. One command can span reservations, messaging, tasks, locks, and payments.

Example: "Can the guest at Seaside Villa check in early?"

1
Find reservation — AI calls get_current_reservations to find the booking
2
Check cleaning — Calls list_tasks to see if the cleaner has finished or can finish earlier
3
Coordinate — Calls send_internal_message to ask the cleaner about timing
4
Respond — Calls send_guest_message to confirm or offer an early check-in upsell
5
Update access — Calls create_access_code with the new check-in time
6
Log it — Everything is tracked in the timeline automatically

One question. Six tools. Five systems coordinated. Only possible because everything is one platform.
