Salto for boutique hotels.
Boutique hotels are the segment that drove Salto's US growth. Independent owner-operators, design-driven properties, and high guest-experience expectations all point at a Salto deployment that meets brand-standard mobile-key requirements where applicable AND lets the lock disappear into the room design language. Most boutique properties run on Saflok or older legacy keycard hardware and are looking at a replacement window because mobile credentials have become table stakes. We install across the boutique segment with two product lines: XS4 One when brand compliance and cost both matter, Aelement Fusion when the lock is part of the room aesthetic.
