Based in Berlin, Germany, HQ Revenue was established in 2012 to provide revenue management solutions for the hospitality sector. The company was founded by Roland Hehn. From its inception, the firm has focused on developing technology to help hotels optimize pricing and maximize revenue.
A significant milestone in the company's history was its acquisition by Lighthouse (formerly OTA Insight) on June 20, 2024. This strategic move was part of Lighthouse's broader strategy to create a comprehensive commercial platform for the travel and hospitality industry by integrating advanced technology and teams. The acquisition aims to accelerate investment and innovation for the clients of both companies.
HQ Revenue operates as a provider of cloud-based software that delivers real-time data and analytics to hotels. Its client base includes hotel chains, independent hotels, and vacation rentals. The business model is centered on a subscription-based service, offering various plans to meet different user requirements. The software supplies customers with detailed information on major online distribution channels, competitors' room rates, local events, holidays, and weather forecasts. This data empowers revenue management, sales, and marketing departments to devise effective strategies for optimal market positioning.
The core product is a suite of tools designed to streamline revenue management. Its key features include market monitoring, which tracks competitors' pricing behavior, and key performance indicator (KPI) analytics. The platform provides tools for market segmentation, dynamic pricing, and reporting. A notable benefit is its ability to integrate with third-party Property Management Systems (PMS), allowing for a more contextual analysis of a hotel's on-the-books data against real-time market information. This enables revenue managers to make faster, data-driven pricing decisions and gain a complete overview of performance, competition, and profit opportunities.
