The story
Founded in 1994 as InnQuest, the company built roommaster as a PMS for independent hotels, expanding through the 2000s into channel management, booking engine, and revenue tools. In 2016 it became Valsoft Corporation's first acquisition, gaining resources to scale globally. In 2025 the parent brand InnQuest was retired and the company unified under the roommaster name, doubling down on AI-powered hospitality and embedded payments as growth vectors.
