A good fit for

Independent individual hosts managing 1 to 4 short-term rental properties who want a simple, affordable management tool without complex features.

Know the limitations

Deliberately limited to managing a maximum of 4 properties; not suitable for large property managers or those needing concierge or yield-management features.
Calendar synchronization is via iCal only, so it does not update rates in real time across all platforms.

What you can do

Centralize bookings from multiple platforms to avoid double bookings and manage short-term rental calendars in one place.
Schedule and track cleaning tasks with a shareable link for cleaners to confirm and leave notes, improving operational coordination.

Features

Automatic synchronization of bookings from Airbnb, Booking.com, VRBO, and direct bookings via iCal links.
Operations dashboard showing arrivals, departures, cleanings, KPIs (net revenue, ADR, RevPAR, occupancy), and alerts on a single real-time screen.
Real-time calculation and display of net revenue, average daily rate (ADR), revenue per available room (RevPAR), occupancy rate, and year-end revenue forecast.
Alerts and notifications for new bookings, cleaning confirmations, cost thresholds, and payouts to confirm to keep hosts informed of important events.
Import past bookings from CSV files to integrate historical data and export data in PDF and CSV formats for accounting purposes.
