Transcripts
Every word, in writing.
The three films carry English captions. This is the same narration as a page you can read, search and quote — no player required.
The Villabase film
- 0:01 Every villa company starts the same way. One spreadsheet. Then a second one, for the money. Then a folder of contracts, a shared inbox, and a phone that never stops.
- 0:13 An agent asks if the villa is free. An owner asks where his statement is. A guest wants a chef on Thursday. Three questions, and all of them live in your head.
- 0:25 We ran a company like that for years. So we built one database — and we put three doors on it.
- 0:33 Flow, for the operation. Connect, for the agents. Stay, for the guest. Not three tools that sync. Three doors on the same room.
- 0:46 A booking lands once, and promotes itself into the P&L with the commission already subtracted. Bank lines match themselves.
- 0:54 Your agents check the calendar themselves. They see the rate. They send a shortlist. You still confirm every booking.
- 1:01 A guest asks for a chef. Your team confirms it. She has the email before anyone picks up a pen. Both halves of this are live and in daily use: the staff confirmation is a real database write, and the guest email is a real transactional send. The loop start to finish is what we have not tested on a clean dataset, so we do not call it proven.
- 1:09 And it is already in the numbers. Nothing reconciled, because nothing ever disagreed.
- 1:15 Look at what left the desk. Availability, checked by the agents themselves. Every deposit, tracked to the euro. Every request, one queue.
- 1:24 Every agreement, sent. Every bank line, matched. Every commission, counted. Owner statements, one click.
- 1:32 And you stop hunting for what's wrong. A cost entered twice. A booking that overlaps itself. It tells you.
- 1:42 You stop being the database.
- 1:45 We didn't build this to sell it. We built it because we needed it — and we have run a villa company on it every day since.
- 1:54 Villabase. One database. Three doors.
The Flow film
- 0:01 Most villa companies run on a dozen spreadsheets. Villabase Flow runs on one screen — every villa, every booking, every euro.
- 0:11 Bookings land in one place. Payment doses tracked to the euro — what's in, what's due, what's late.
- 0:22 Bank lines reconcile against them, so the money in the statement is the money in the system.
- 0:27 And you can run it from your phone. A cost, typed into a message — posted to the books. A booking, from the same thread — with the rental agreement already sent.
- 0:38 P and L per villa, always current. Owner statements in one click.
- 0:47 The system checks itself. Villabase Flow. One database. Zero spreadsheets.
The Connect film
- 0:01 Every agent you work with asks the same four questions. Send the presentation. Is it free. What is the rate. Did our payment arrive.
- 0:15 Connect answers all four without you. Your villas, your brand, your current presentation — never last year’s.
- 0:26 They check your calendar. They see the rate. They send a shortlist. You still confirm every booking.
- 0:37 Then the part that keeps them coming back. How to pay you. What's landed, what's pending. And what they've earned with you — to the euro.
- 0:50 Their whole book of business with you, organised. While every request lands on your side, in one queue. The film closes on agents moving between villa companies through one identity. None of that is built — Connect runs one villa company per deployment today.
- 1:09 Agents sell what's easiest to sell. Villabase Connect.
The Stay film
- 0:00 Every villa company runs on the same thing. A phone full of threads.
- 0:06 Villabase Stay gives your guest one place instead. Their booking reference, a code, and they're in. No password, no app. This sign-in does not exist. A guest reaches their stay today through a private link we send them; the booking reference plus a code is a direction we are considering, not a mechanism we have built.
- 0:16 The wifi, the door code, the number to call at midnight — everything they'd otherwise text you for.
- 0:22 They ask for a private chef. It's on your team's phone the second they tap it. One confirm, and the guest's email writes itself. The request reaching your team is real and verified — a database trigger fires the moment the guest taps, into one shared team chat, not to a named person. The confirmation email is a real transactional send. The loop start to finish is what we have not tested, so we do not call it proven.
- 0:29 Behind it, one screen. Guest, group, perks, requests, plan, access.
- 0:35 And you get to ask what nobody asks. Why did you pick us? They rank it themselves — the view, the pool, the quiet.
- 0:44 So the guide builds itself around the answer. Beach people get beaches. Quiet people get the north coast.
- 0:52 The guest who booked three summers ago, recognised. And a list you can only send to when they've said yes.
- 1:04 Guests, villas, bookings — one database. Villabase Stay. Every guest, remembered.
Timings mark where each spoken line begins. The films show some capability that is committed rather than shipped; each page says which is which, and what Villabase does not do yet is stated plainly.
