A local rate desk that went worldwide

RoomRateIQ began as a pricing desk for guesthouses around Auroville and Pondicherry — Visitor Centre, Kuilapalayam, Edayanchavadi, Bommayapalayam, White Town, Rock Beach. Badrinath Ganesh runs Blissful Haven in Edayanchavadi and needed a way to see what similar stays were charging, without pretending to scrape Booking.com.

The same engine now covers 25 cities. Travellers compare modeled rates for free and click through to Booking, Agoda, Expedia, Airbnb or the hotel’s own site. Hotels subscribe for the owner dashboard: Demand Index, comps and a calendar.

Who operates it

What we do not do

We do not scrape OTA HTML. We do not sell traveller lists. We do not hide affiliate relationships. Search shows real lodging from OpenStreetMap. Typical from is a market range; the live quote is on Booking, Agoda or Expedia.

The mark

The green square and geometric R stand for rate — a letter that also reads as a price bar. Laterite and bay green come from the Tamil coast the product started on.
