How Loop-ah Turns Rooms into Contracted ARR

Hotels don’t buy “loofahs” — they contract rooms. Loop-ah™ installs once, then ships high-GM refills on a predictable cadence. Revenue is recognized on cartridge delivery, so ARR and GP live in the cartridge line while hardware stays a light, fast-payback enabler.

    Industry vs Loop‑ah™ — Savings / Value (USD) — 500 Rooms

    The setup: published programs show modest savings per room. Loop-ah layers operating savings, towel life, and Cartridge GP (investor lens)—so value compounds at portfolio scale.
    What you’ll see: each benchmark is normalized to 500 rooms and to the study’s timeframe; the Loop-ah column models the same timeframe.
    Loop‑ah™ outperforms documented programs—consistently and at scale.
