The Architecture

Ten layers. One methodology.

Every audit layer runs a different analytical model against your property data. The forensic audit runs all ten and shows you precisely where revenue is leaking.

01
Layer 01 of 10
RevPAR Gap Forensics
Market ceiling vs actual performance. RevPAR position against the optimised ceiling for your property type, occupancy band, and location.
02
Layer 02 of 10
Rate Calendar Forensics
Gap nights, orphan nights, compression events missed. Unbooked nights that should be priced and filled.
03
Layer 03 of 10
Booking Pace Analysis
Lead-time distribution, last-minute discount erosion, advance booking stimulation, minimum-stay blocking patterns.
04
Layer 04 of 10
Listing Conversion Audit
Title, description, photos, amenities, booking settings. Everything determining whether a guest clicks through.
05
Layer 05 of 10
Review Sentiment NLP
NLP across review history. Maintenance flags, rating trajectory, algorithm risk scoring, velocity threshold analysis.
06
Layer 06 of 10
Guest Journey Audit
Pre-arrival, in-stay, post-checkout. Upsell gaps, messaging cadence, review recovery. £30–80/booking missed.
07
Layer 07 of 10
Channel Mix & Commission
Platform dependency ratio, commission leakage, direct booking opportunity. 8–12% per booking to platforms.
08
Layer 08 of 10
Seasonal Yield Curve
Peak capture, trough stimulation, shoulder pricing. Benchmarked against Harvy's 1.6–2.0x peak/trough ratio.
09
Layer 09 of 10
Net Revenue Analysis
Cleaning cost ratio, true RevPAR, operational profit drag. What lands in your account vs what your dashboard shows.
10
Layer 10 of 10
Competitive Positioning
USP clarity, market stance, target segment alignment, channel opportunity vs actual local competition.
How It Works

Three steps. One forensic audit.

No software to learn. No retainer. You send your numbers, I run the full ten-layer audit by hand, and you get a written report within 48 hours, built on the same methodology that grew a Highland portfolio 38% in 9 months.

01
Send Your Numbers

Property type, location, ADR, occupancy, review count, channel mix. A short form, a few minutes. Every field feeds a specific layer of the audit.

A few minutes to submit
02
I Run the Audit

I work through all ten layers against UK operator benchmarks by hand. RevPAR ceiling, rate calendar, listing conversion, review velocity, yield curve, channel mix, net revenue. This is the same forensic pass I ran on my own portfolio.

Delivered within 48 hours
03
You See Exactly Where

Every leak identified. Every fix ranked by impact. The precise monthly figure sitting unrecovered in your portfolio — and the single most important action to take today.

What Makes This Different

Every other tool audits your listing. Summit Stay Group audits your entire revenue architecture. The gap between what you earn and what you should earn lives in your pricing logic, your calendar gaps, your channel mix, your cleaning fee ratio, your review velocity.

Most operators never look at these things together. I do, on every audit, because I looked at them every single day for 9 months and grew a portfolio by 38%.

What Other Tools Give You

  • A listing URL. A title score. Photo feedback.
  • One platform's data only
  • Surface-level advice, missing multi-platform gaps
  • No view of direct booking revenue
  • No channel mix or commission analysis
  • No net revenue after fees
