## Which booking engine do you recommend?

SiteMinder for multi-channel sync, Bookassist for Irish hotels (Dublin HQ), Little Hotelier for boutique. We integrate any — recommendation depends on your PMS and channel mix.

## Will the site help reduce Booking.com commission?

Yes — every Irish hotel client of ours sees direct-bookings increase 15–35% in the first 6 months. We optimise the rate-parity messaging, add 'best rate guaranteed' badges and run targeted Google Ads on brand terms.

## Is the site accessible for Fáilte Ireland standards?

Yes — we build to WCAG 2.2 AA, ship an accessibility statement and run a Lighthouse + axe audit before launch. This aligns with Fáilte Ireland's digital accessibility guidance.

## Can the site sell gift vouchers and afternoon-tea experiences?

Yes — Stripe-powered voucher and experience checkout. Voucher revenue typically pays back the build cost in 6–9 months.

## How long does a hotel website take to build?

6–8 weeks including booking engine integration, accessibility audit and content migration.

## FAQ

### How much does an AI integration project cost in Ireland?

Digital Bridge prices AI work in bands: an AI feasibility assessment from €5,000 (grant-eligible), a baseline production build from €15,000, multi-system agent workflows at €25,000–€60,000, and enterprise programmes from €40,000 to €100,000+. Small-business website builds start at €499. Every engagement is fixed-price against a signed scope.

### How long does a production AI build take?

A feasibility assessment runs three to five weeks. A baseline production build typically runs eight to twelve weeks from signed scope to go-live, including a seven-day shadow-mode pilot before the system takes live traffic. Multi-system programmes are sequenced into phases so value lands before the full programme completes.

### Can Irish grant funding cover this work?

Often, yes. Enterprise Ireland's Digital Discovery Grant funds up to 80% of an eligible feasibility assessment, and Digital Process Innovation funds up to 50% of eligible implementation costs. Local Enterprise Office schemes cover smaller digital projects. Eligibility is decided by the funder, never by us.

### Who owns the code and the prompts?

You do. Every engagement transfers full source-code and prompt ownership on final payment. Systems run on EU-hosted infrastructure with provider training disabled and a signed data processing agreement. There is no vendor lock-in and no proprietary runtime you have to keep paying us for.
