Duetto has acquired HotStats, a financial benchmarking provider for the hotel industry, in a move aimed at expanding its capabilities beyond revenue management to include a more comprehensive view of hotel profitability. The acquisition brings together Duetto’s cloud-based revenue strategy platform and HotStats’ data on operating performance across various revenue centers such as rooms, food & beverage, and ancillary services.
Duetto, whose platform is used by more than 6,000 hotels worldwide, has historically focused on dynamic pricing, forecasting, and demand optimization. By incorporating HotStats’ benchmarking data, the company is looking to broaden its offering to include insights into costs and overall operational efficiency. This development reflects growing interest across the industry in linking revenue strategy more directly with bottom-line performance.
“By integrating HotStats, we’re moving beyond just revenue optimization to a fuller view of profitability,” said David Woolenberg, CEO of Duetto. “This is a meaningful step in equipping hoteliers with the tools needed to make more informed, data-driven decisions.”
HotStats offers detailed comparisons of profitability across a range of hotel departments, helping operators identify trends and areas for improvement. The company’s CEO, Michael Grove, noted that HotStats and Duetto share a common focus on actionable insights. “Our goal has always been to help hoteliers better understand their financial performance, and we see clear alignment with Duetto’s approach to data and decision-making.”
Jonathan Langston, founder and outgoing chairman of HotStats, added that the partnership marks a new phase in the evolution of hotel performance analytics, stating that the merger brings together two complementary visions under one platform.
The acquisition follows Duetto’s 2024 purchase by private equity firm GrowthCurve Capital, which has supported the company’s expansion and product development efforts. The addition of HotStats represents a strategic step toward building a unified solution that addresses both revenue generation and operational profitability.
The full HotStats team will join Duetto as part of the transaction, ensuring continuity for current clients while enabling new integrations and features across the combined platform. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
In an environment where rising operating costs, labor shortages, and shifting demand patterns continue to challenge hotel operators, the ability to link top-line performance with bottom-line results is becoming increasingly important. By combining revenue and profit data into a single system, Duetto aims to help hoteliers make more coordinated and efficient business decisions.
