Empty lobby. Empty meeting space. Empty growth.
At the 48th NYU IHIF, ZenSpace is on-site with two free smart pods — built for the kind of underused square footage that doesn't show up in any RevPAR report. Stop by, book one, see the platform that's turning lobby corners into ancillary revenue.
Built for the hospitality investment thesis.
Eighty percent of an asset's lobby, mezzanine, and lounge zones sit idle from 10 a.m. to midnight. That isn't a brand problem or a market problem — it's a productization problem. ZenSpace converts that idle square footage into a bookable, paid, accessible class of inventory that compounds non-room RevPAR without taking a single key offline.
We built the platform with the asset owner in mind. Booking, payments, access, and on-pod displays ship from one license. The AI agents — Distribution, Pricing, Revenue Ops, Alerting — work the floor 24/7 so the GM doesn't need a new line on the org chart to capture the upside.
At portfolio scale, the math sharpens. Fifty properties, four pods each, one platform — that's two hundred new revenue surfaces with no PMS migration, no franchisor approval cycle, and no committee. We're at IHIF because that conversation is the one worth having on the floor.
Two free pods. Bookable in seconds.
We're placing two fully ZenSpace-enabled pods on the floor at NYU IHIF 2026, complimentary for any attendee. The booking flow is the same one we ship to hotel and CRE clients — live, on-site, and yours to try without ceremony.

Things worth asking on the floor.
Lobby activation ROI
How does a hotel monetize underused lobby + mezzanine square footage without alienating the brand experience? What does the unit economics chart look like over 12 / 24 / 36 months?
Brand-portfolio rollout
What does activating 50 properties simultaneously look like? Centralized config, brand-locked surfaces, decentralized P&L. Ask us about the multi-property dashboard.
PMS integrations
Built to integrate with Opera, Mews, Cloudbeds. Ask us where each one sits on the roadmap, what's live today, and what the first 90 days of integration actually look like.
Operational lift, not staff lift
Self-serve booking, smart access, automated payment capture. Zero added headcount at the front desk. Ask us how the agents handle the alerting layer instead of your night manager.
Working with the world's best pod makers.
ZenSpace is the software & AI layer. The pods we showcase on the floor are sourced through our partner network.
Three pods, one lobby, Prince Waikiki.
Prince Waikiki — an oceanfront hotel in Honolulu — was an early ZenSpace partner. Three pods sit near the lobby, open to guests, visitors, and locals dropping in for a coffee. Bookings are self-serve from a kiosk and on mobile. The front desk wasn't asked to operate it. The pods just sit there and earn.
“They need somewhere quiet and immediate. The pods sit right off the lobby, guests can book them in seconds, and our team isn't pulled into the logistics.”
Book a pod. Meet the team. Bring back a thesis.
Two pods on-site for the duration of the event. Booking slots are 30 minutes, first-come first-served. ZenAI agents featured at the event are in development — full availability Q3 2026.
