Pruvo's consumer service is no longer available. The company moved to a B2B model in mid-2026 and now sells its optimization tools to travel operators rather than to travelers, so the free reservation monitoring people used to forward confirmation emails to is retired. What made Pruvo good is worth restating because it sets the bar for a replacement: it did the rebooking rather than just telling you about it. Most of the remaining consumer tools do not. They email you a lower rate and leave the cancel-and-rebook to you, which means you only capture the drop if you happen to be at your laptop and the old rate is still refundable. Gondola's AutoSave is the closest replacement to what Pruvo did, and it is free. It monitors the rate on eligible refundable bookings after you book and rebooks you automatically at the lower rate. Because Gondola books direct with the hotel, the rebooked stay still earns your points and elite nights.

Gondola is a free hotel booking platform that books directly with all the major hotel chains and independents. Because the reservation is direct, stays booked through Gondola earn your hotel loyalty points, elite night credits, and elite benefits, plus your credit card points, and Gondola adds 3-7% back in Gondola Cash on top. AutoSave then monitors the rate after you book and rebooks eligible refundable reservations automatically when the price drops.

What to look for in a replacement

Ask three questions. Does it rebook, or only alert? Does it cost a subscription? And does the rebooked reservation still earn your hotel points and elite nights, or does it move you onto an OTA rate that earns nothing?

That third question is the one most comparisons skip. A tool that saves you $40 by moving your Marriott stay onto a third-party rate has also quietly cost you the night credit and the base points, which is often worth more than the $40.

Alerts are worth less than they sound

An alert only converts into savings if you act on it while the drop is still there and the original booking is still cancellable. Rates move, and the ones that move down often move back up. In practice a meaningful share of alerts expire unused.

That is the entire argument for automatic rebooking, and it is why Pruvo's consumer product was well liked before it was retired.

Common questions

Is Pruvo still free?
The free consumer service is no longer available. Pruvo moved to a B2B-only model in mid-2026 and now sells to travel operators rather than to individual travelers.
What is the best Pruvo alternative?
For automatic rebooking specifically, Gondola's AutoSave is the closest match. It monitors eligible refundable reservations and rebooks them at the lower rate without you doing anything, it is free, and the bookings are direct so your hotel points and elite nights still credit.
Do any free alternatives still exist?
Yes. Several free tools send price drop alerts on a reservation you forward to them. The difference is that they notify you and you handle the cancel and rebook yourself, where Pruvo and AutoSave do the rebooking.
Will rebooking cost me my hotel loyalty points?
It depends where the new reservation lands. If the tool rebooks you onto an OTA rate, the stay stops earning hotel points and elite nights. Gondola rebooks direct with the hotel, so the earning is unaffected.
