What is Hostaway?

Hostaway spreads CoHost to mobile and absorbs French e-invoicing before the mandate

Three strands are shipping in parallel. AI CoHost, introduced in June, reached the mobile app, so property questions, conversation search and financial reports can be pulled from a phone. Operationally, a new Refuse Bookings setting blocks reservations that hourly automated reshuffling cannot fit, closing a double-booking gap at the source. Commercially, French electronic invoicing is now handled inside Hostaway ahead of the phased September 2026 requirement, alongside recent work on OTA-channel invoices and the Booking Website Pro site builder.

What is Fibery?

Fibery puts MCP setup in one settings page and speeds up entity views and formulas.

Fibery's November 5 release is quality-of-life: keyboard filters in search, more actions on whiteboard entity cards, faster entity pages and batched formula updates. Fibery MCP now has its own settings page with one-click Claude and ChatGPT connections and ready commands for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and OpenCode. AI Connectors reached free beta on October 29.

Hostaway vs Fibery: editorial side-by-side

H5.0

Hostaway spreads CoHost to mobile and absorbs French e-invoicing before the mandate

◆ Current state

Three strands are shipping in parallel. AI CoHost, introduced in June, reached the mobile app, so property questions, conversation search and financial reports can be pulled from a phone. Operationally, a new Refuse Bookings setting blocks reservations that hourly automated reshuffling cannot fit, closing a double-booking gap at the source. Commercially, French electronic invoicing is now handled inside Hostaway ahead of the phased September 2026 requirement, alongside recent work on OTA-channel invoices and the Booking Website Pro site builder.

◆ Where it's heading

The pattern is absorbing adjacent tools rather than integrating with them: invoicing, compliance, the booking site and now on-the-go assistant access all move inside Hostaway so an operator does not buy a second product. CoHost is following the ordinary assistant path of widening reach rather than taking on new authority — it answers on more screens, it does not yet act unprompted. The regulatory work is the more distinctive bet, since compliance deadlines create adoption pressure a feature cannot.

◆ Prediction

Expect the e-invoicing groundwork to extend to other markets with similar mandates, given how specifically this was built around a national deadline. CoHost's next step is more likely to be acting on reservations than appearing on another screen.

F6.3

Fibery puts MCP setup in one settings page and speeds up entity views and formulas.

◆ Current state

Fibery's November 5 release is quality-of-life: keyboard filters in search, more actions on whiteboard entity cards, faster entity pages and batched formula updates. Fibery MCP now has its own settings page with one-click Claude and ChatGPT connections and ready commands for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and OpenCode. AI Connectors reached free beta on October 29.

◆ Where it's heading

Fibery alternates big AI releases (AI agent, Custom Apps, AI-built integrations) with polish weeks. Making MCP setup a first-class setting shows it expects outside agents to work in Fibery as much as its own.

◆ Prediction

The pricing decision on AI Connectors is due by year end; MCP-based connector creation is still the open item from October.
