Coco Community

Coliving bookings and automated operations

Coco Community runs a portfolio of coliving apartments in Paris with demanding constraints: changing occupancy, variable demand, high expectations for the guest experience and a need for real-time operational visibility.

The initial need went beyond a booking engine. The system had to connect acquisition, availability, pricing, payments and back-office delivery in one clear architecture.

The objective was to build a complete booking platform with real-time availability, dynamic pricing, Stripe payments and centralised operations.

Approach

We designed the booking layer in Bubble with configurable price calculations based on move-in date, length of stay, actual availability, pricing rules and business constraints. Stripe handles payments and deposits through a clear approval flow.

In parallel, we structured Airtable as the backbone of operations: sourcing new properties, qualifying owners, tracking availability, managing bookings and coordinating internal tasks.

Our solution

Technical architecture

The application separates responsibilities clearly: a conversion-focused booking front end in Bubble, a Stripe transaction layer for payments and an Airtable data foundation for operational management.

This separation limits knock-on effects. The guest journey stays fast and clear, while business rules, statuses, follow-ups and priorities remain manageable by the operations team without complicating the user experience.

Outcomes

Coco Community now has a complete system for bookings, payments and operations at scale. Data is aligned, decisions are quicker and delivery quality stays consistent even during periods of high demand.

Automating routine responses frees the team to focus on more important requests while retaining business controls for sensitive issues.
