What is Fibery?

Fibery's MCP server can now upload local files, so AI assistants can attach screenshots and images.

Fibery's October 22 release is small: rich text accepts multiple files at once, with new upload and upload-by-link options, and the MCP server lets an AI assistant upload files from the user's computer into file fields or rich text. It follows three heavier releases: AI-built custom integrations, Custom Apps as entity views, and a rebuilt AI agent.

What is Hostaway?

Hostaway spreads CoHost to mobile and absorbs French e-invoicing before the mandate

Three strands are shipping in parallel. AI CoHost, introduced in June, reached the mobile app, so property questions, conversation search and financial reports can be pulled from a phone. Operationally, a new Refuse Bookings setting blocks reservations that hourly automated reshuffling cannot fit, closing a double-booking gap at the source. Commercially, French electronic invoicing is now handled inside Hostaway ahead of the phased September 2026 requirement, alongside recent work on OTA-channel invoices and the Booking Website Pro site builder.

Fibery vs Hostaway: editorial side-by-side

F7.5

Fibery's MCP server can now upload local files, so AI assistants can attach screenshots and images.

◆ Current state

Fibery's October 22 release is small: rich text accepts multiple files at once, with new upload and upload-by-link options, and the MCP server lets an AI assistant upload files from the user's computer into file fields or rich text. It follows three heavier releases: AI-built custom integrations, Custom Apps as entity views, and a rebuilt AI agent.

◆ Where it's heading

Fibery is making AI the main builder and operator of the workspace: the agent, Custom Apps, AI-generated integrations and an MCP server that now handles code execution and files. The weekly cadence alternates big AI releases with quality-of-life updates like this one.

◆ Prediction

Expect the custom-integration preview to widen and the MCP server to gain more write actions; another large AI release is likely within a few weeks given the pattern.

H5.0

Hostaway spreads CoHost to mobile and absorbs French e-invoicing before the mandate

◆ Current state

Three strands are shipping in parallel. AI CoHost, introduced in June, reached the mobile app, so property questions, conversation search and financial reports can be pulled from a phone. Operationally, a new Refuse Bookings setting blocks reservations that hourly automated reshuffling cannot fit, closing a double-booking gap at the source. Commercially, French electronic invoicing is now handled inside Hostaway ahead of the phased September 2026 requirement, alongside recent work on OTA-channel invoices and the Booking Website Pro site builder.

◆ Where it's heading

The pattern is absorbing adjacent tools rather than integrating with them: invoicing, compliance, the booking site and now on-the-go assistant access all move inside Hostaway so an operator does not buy a second product. CoHost is following the ordinary assistant path of widening reach rather than taking on new authority — it answers on more screens, it does not yet act unprompted. The regulatory work is the more distinctive bet, since compliance deadlines create adoption pressure a feature cannot.

◆ Prediction

Expect the e-invoicing groundwork to extend to other markets with similar mandates, given how specifically this was built around a national deadline. CoHost's next step is more likely to be acting on reservations than appearing on another screen.
