Properly schedules turnovers from your booking calendar and has cleaners send photos as proof the job was done. The catch is the price per property: $12.99 a month adds up fast, direct sync with your booking software needs the $14.99 Pro plan, and the photo review is another $5 every time. - **Value for money: B.** $12.99 per property a month, under the $15.99 where the category's cheaper quarter ends. But it is per property, so ten homes is $130 a month, and Pro is $14.99. - **Free plan and trial: C.** A 30-day trial with no card needed, and then nothing free. A month is enough to try the scheduler, not to see a full season of cleanings. - **Features: C.** Auto-scheduling, photo checklists, a cleaner marketplace and reports. The listing shows gaps: Standard syncs by iCal only, and photo review by a person is a separate charge. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record, and you have to link your calendars and set up checklists before it does anything. Mobile apps for iOS and Android. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, iPhone and Android, with Airbnb and iCal sync and direct sync to Guesty, Hostaway and other booking systems on Pro.

What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. It costs $155.88 a year. - You could make: Job scheduling, tasks and reports: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page. - You could not: It plugs into other products, Airbnb, Guesty and Hostaway among them, and has an API. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
