How The Updated AI Engine Adjusts Pricing

The latest version of the pricing engine tracks signals such as booking windows, competitor availability, lead times, seasonality, local events, and historical performance. It uses these inputs to adjust nightly rates in line with current demand rather than relying only on past averages. These adjustments formed the basis for the 18 percent revenue increase reported across the managed portfolio.

Increased Predictability for Hosts in a Shifting Market

As Toronto's short-term rental landscape continues to evolve with new regulations and shifting guest demand, many hosts have sought more predictable performance across the year. The updated pricing engine was developed in response to this need. Early results from the rollout show more stable booking patterns during peak travel periods and slower months. This trend contributes to the measured 18 percent increase in average revenue.

"Property owners in Toronto want predictability, not guesswork," said Julia Brown, Chief IT Officer at MasterHost. "The updated pricing engine responds to real market movement and supports more consistent revenue outcomes. Our goal is to give hosts clarity in a market that changes quickly."

Broad Impact Across Different Property Types

During the rollout, MasterHost tested the updated pricing engine across a range of listings, including condominium units and houses in different neighbourhoods across the city. Because demand patterns differ between areas and housing types, the new model was designed to respond more precisely to how guests actually book in each segment. Early results show that the 18 percent increase in average revenue was not limited to one category, but reflected gains across the wider managed portfolio.

The company notes that the updated algorithms help reduce both underpricing during high-demand periods and overpricing during slower weeks. As a result, nightly rates now align more closely with real-time market conditions, while property owners receive clearer feedback on how pricing decisions affect bookings and revenue over time.
