Model Context Protocol (MCP) for hospitality connectivity

The NextPax MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that gives AI agents and developer tools direct access to NextPax integration knowledge. It serves both sides of the exchange: partners building on the Supply API, PMS providers and companies building their own property management system and channels and OTAs integrating through the Distribution API. Connected to a partner's own AI tools, it answers integration questions from the official NextPax documentation: API specifications, step-by-step journeys and the meaning of every error, the same source the NextPax support team works from, but instant and available around the clock. Because developers no longer wait for answers, integrations with the Supply API and Distribution API move significantly faster from first API call to certification and go-live. And the value doesn't stop there: after go-live, the same MCP answers the daily questions from support, operations and commercial teams, with live operational context and action capabilities on the roadmap.

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI tools connect to external knowledge and systems through one consistent interface. Launched in late 2024, it has been adopted across the industry, it is becoming the standard way AI tools talk to business systems, the way good API documentation became a baseline expectation a decade ago.

For hospitality connectivity, that means the AI tools your developers already work in can read official NextPax knowledge directly, instead of your team switching between documentation portals, code and support tickets.

Not a chatbot, a socket

The NextPax MCP is not another chatbot. A chatbot sits between you and the system, works from its own separate knowledge base, and guesses when it doesn't know.

The MCP is a socket. It plugs official NextPax knowledge straight into the AI tools your team already uses. Your AI combines your code with our documentation, so it doesn't just quote the docs, it explains what an error means in your integration and suggests the fix in context.

Who the NextPax MCP is for

NextPax sits in the middle of the exchange between property supply and distribution channels. The MCP serves integration teams on both sides.

Supply side, building on the Supply API

• PMS providers connecting their system to NextPax distribution.
• Companies building their own property management system, integrating channel connectivity from day one.

Distribution side, building on the Distribution API

• Channels and OTAs integrating with NextPax to source supply: properties, content, availability and rates.

And once you're live, your whole team

• Support and operations teams with daily questions about how flows work and what an error means — without calling an API or filing a ticket.
• Commercial teams, as the roadmap adds insights like matchmaking, content and pricing suggestions.

During integration, the MCP is your developers' tool. After go-live, it becomes something rarer: NextPax knowledge on tap for everyone at your organization who works with connectivity, people who don't call APIs, in the AI tools they already use such as Claude, Cursor and Codex.

What your AI can do today

• Answer integration questions. Everything in the official NextPax documentation, endpoints, fields, flows, requirements, available in your own AI tool, in plain language.

• Explain and fix errors. Your AI combines the error meaning from our docs with your actual code and suggests what to change.

• Guide you to certification. Step-by-step integration journeys for both the Supply API and the Distribution API, from first request to go-live.

• Work in your tools. No new dashboard, no separate portal: one MCP install in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP-capable tool your team prefers.

How the NextPax MCP fits

The MCP is an access layer on top of what NextPax already provides. It does not replace the APIs, it makes NextPax knowledge available to the AI tools working with them, on both sides of the exchange.

• Supply API — the connectivity PMS providers and system builders build on.

• Distribution API — the connectivity channels and OTAs use to source supply from NextPax.

One connection to 150+ channels, including Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Expedia, and 650,000+ properties. All channels, working as one.
