Who we really are

If you thought our only ambition was software, you haven't met us yet! Here you will really find who we are, where we came from, and where we are determined to go.

Revolutionizing the hotel industry...

...as well as the non-hotel sector! How are we doing it? Very simple: by helping hotels, B&B and vacation rentals earn more money and work better thanks to the smartest, most user-friendly software harnessing the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Smartpricing founders: Luca Rodella, Tommaso Centonze and Eugenio Bancaro

Our history (plus everything you don't see)

Where you see a neat chronology, we see teachings and failures, anxious pitches and late nights, numbers and bugs, passion and people. It is our story, and we keep wanting more of it.

  • 2018

    This is when we said to ourselves, "Managing prices is a mess. What if we created an algorithm?" Said, done.

  • 2020

    Many tests later, the algorithm is ready and the name too: We launch Smartpricing! Fate responds: lockdown! But we don't quit.

  • 2021

    Persistence pays off: Smartpricing is among the top 100 startups of the year, 400 customers trust us, and investors too: +350K!

  • 2022

    Revolutionizing the hotel industry knows no borders. We climb the fence to meet our neighbors in the DACH market and raise a 2M seed round. Auf geht's! 🍻

  • 2023

    The team explodes, the client base as well. Do we relax? Nah. First we launch Smartpaying and then we close a €13M round.

  • 2024

    Here we introduce Smartpricing Free and triple the power of Smartpaying, which evolves into Smartconnect. We’re moving like the wind.

  • 2025

    Is still to be written, but the road is marked: continue to help accommodations achieve more and more.

We like to talk about ourselves, but it is nice when others do too

"For me, Smartpricing is about pure profitability. It's like having gasoline that makes your car go 30% faster but uses half as much."

"I used to manage prices with little objectivity, with the risk of making mistakes and proposing the wrong prices. Smartpricing, on the other hand, is accurate and follows the market, just what I expected."

Important things we believe in

We could have made a list of the "usual" values, the ones that are easy to stick to. But empty words were never our thing: we need substance, action, momentum. That is why also here, we shoot for the moon.

Ambition

Ambition

All that is needed to succeed in revolutionizing the hotel and non-hotel industry.

Wisdom

The maximum of competence and talent, but with ethics and humility. Keyword: continuous learning.

Excellence

Humanity

Understood as people and care. Without customers, talents and employees, we simply would not be here.

Innovation

Innovation

It is not just technology. It is about replacing "complexity" with "simplicity." In products, in processes, in communication.
