Smart rooms for African hospitality

Built by the team behind HMK Living — a hotel suite already running across web, WhatsApp AI, mobile, and desktop. We know hospitality, and now we bring the hardware.

System architecture

Your booking flow, wired to your building

Check-in issues the key, checkout powers down the room, housekeeping gets scoped access, and the owner sees it all — one connected system.

Your pains, solved

The daily frictions we remove

Manual key issuance

App-based cards, created and activated at check-in in seconds — no key cabinets, no lock changes when keys go missing.

Wasted energy after checkout

The checkout scene powers down AC, TV, and lights automatically — and records the savings in shillings.

No security records

A full audit trail of every entry — guests, housekeeping, maintenance — searchable when disputes or incidents happen.

No one to call when it breaks

A Kampala engineering team on WhatsApp and on site, with SLA-backed support contracts — not a factory abroad.

Check-in issues the key. Checkout powers down the room.

Your booking flow and your building finally talk to each other. When the front desk checks a guest in, their card activates. When they check out, the card dies, the room locks, and the power-down scene runs — automatically, every time. We built HMK Living, a complete hospitality platform, so this integration is engineering we've already shipped, not a promise.

Guest experience

In-room control from the guest's phone, plus a WhatsApp concierge for requests — the kind of stay people write reviews about.

Front desk & housekeeping

Card issuance in seconds, housekeeping access windows, and room-state visibility — fewer keys, fewer disputes, faster turnarounds.

Owner analytics

Occupancy patterns, energy saved in shillings, staff access reports, and multi-property comparisons — from anywhere.

Proof, not promises

We already build for hospitality

HMK Living runs on Desishub software today — booking website, AI/WhatsApp chatbot, owner mobile app, and front-desk desktop tool. The automation division adds the hardware layer to a hospitality stack that is already live.
