OZLODGE gives hotels, motels, short-stays, student housing and mining accommodation a fully automated self-check-in system — with complete data sovereignty. Your on-premises server stays the authority; the cloud is just a content-blind relay.
Unlike white-label platforms where a third-party vendor controls every lock globally, OZLODGE puts control in the hands of the operator. Your on-premises server is the ultimate authority — the cloud relay is structurally incapable of reading or forging guest commands.
ozlodgeserv runs on your property's LAN and is the source of truth for room assignments, credentials and audit logs — not a vendor's cloud.
Guests check in through the BANOI app, a lobby self-check-in kiosk, or the front desk running the MAOI PMS app — whichever fits your property.
Front-desk check-in, room assignment and physical key programming all run over the local LAN, so a lost internet connection doesn't stop guests checking in.
Room roster sync via /pms/rooms keeps your existing property management system and OZLODGE in step, in both upsert and reconcile modes.
Digital passports and PINs are encrypted end-to-end and never stored in plaintext on any server — including the cloud relay.
Protocol and SDK under MIT, server/app/firmware under GPLv3, and hardware schematics under CERN-OHL-S v2 — no closed clones, no vendor lock-in.
A guest books through your existing channels — OTA, direct booking, or walk-in — and the reservation lands in your PMS as usual.
Guests self-check-in via the BANOI app (geofenced to the property), a lobby kiosk, or the front desk — day or night, online or offline.
At the door, BLE unlock is instant and works with no network connection at all — the lock verifies credentials locally.
