How it works

The architecture of Agentic Booking.

The six building blocks

Agentic Booking defines six interconnected building blocks:

Building Block	Purpose
Venue	What a hospitality venue publishes to be understood by AI agents. Profile, evidence, facilities, capabilities.
Bookable	The base pattern for anything that can be booked—rooms, tables, tickets, experiences.
Folio	The guest account. What's owed, what's paid, what happens if plans change.
Stay	The booking lifecycle. From request through check-in, during the stay, to checkout.
Curator	The discovery and trust layer. How agents find venues, and know which to trust.
Connect	Real-time integration. How venue systems expose live availability and accept bookings.

Discovery

A guest tells their agent what they want. The agent queries Curator for trusted venues matching the request.

Evaluation

The agent reads Venue profiles to understand options—facilities, vibe, evidence of claims.

Booking

The agent uses Bookable to check availability and make a reservation.

Payment

Folio handles the money—deposits, balance, charges during the stay.

Lifecycle

Stay manages the booking from confirmation through checkout and beyond.

Each building block extends the A2A Agent Card:

Identity, capabilities, and communication endpoints from the base spec.

Profile, facilities, vibe, evidence—everything that describes the property.

Inventory, availability, rates—everything needed to make a reservation.

Trust signals from DMOs, portfolios, and editorial curators.

Real-time APIs to the venue's property management system.

The extensions are additive—a venue can support any combination based on what it offers.
