How MediaConnect helps travel channels

REAL-TIME CONTENT FROM THE SOURCE

Connect to 59,000+ hotels with brand-approved, enriched content

For over 20 years, Leonardo has powered the hotel content ecosystem. Now with LUCID MediaConnect, travel channels get instant access to the latest visual and textual content directly from top hotel brands—delivered through a modern API. Pair this enhanced content with rates from any source.

CONTENT THAT GOES BEYOND MEDIA

Detailed metadata, advanced room types, and brand context

Structured data from hotel partners—think advanced room-level mapping, rich categorizations, and 2,000+ of brand-submitted fields. From sustainability policies to dining and meeting space details, all content is categorized, time stamped, and ready for seamless integration.

LEARN MORE Upload Hotels upload high quality media directly to Leonardo’s Content Manager, or it is uploaded via a direct API connection with internal brand tools. Step 1 Categorize All media is given a category that matches OTA standards and accurately describes the image. Room images are matched to relevant room codes by the hotels themselves. LEARN MORE Step 2 Deduplication The first step post-upload is an automatic deduplication scan, ensuring that the media does not match existing content. LEARN MORE Step 3 Optimize We optimize the media to fit channels’ needs, including resizing the content into 14 different sizes, including the original. LEARN MORE Step 4 Brand Approval Our content is always brand approved. The approval engine allows brands to centralize control for use on all travel channels. LEARN MORE Step 5 Time Stamp We time stamp content to ensure that we’re only delivering fresh content. LEARN MORE Step 6 Travel Channel Media is sent to your channel for display, either via a direct API connection or our outbound media sync.
