What does TIDY automate for short-term rental cleaning and maintenance?

TIDY automates cleaning scheduling based on booking calendars, vendor assignment and management, property inspections with photo checklists, and turnover coordination. It pulls booking data from your PMS to auto-schedule cleanings and tracks task completion via a mobile app for staff.

How much does TIDY cost per property?

TIDY offers a Flex plan at 3% per cleaning job (free when no jobs are scheduled), and a Standard plan at $10 per unit per month on an annual commitment. A single property can start free on the Flex plan, making TIDY accessible for hosts of all sizes.

Which PMS and tools does TIDY integrate with?

TIDY integrates with Host Tools, Beds24, Housecall Pro, and ChargeAutomation. It also provides its own vendor marketplace where you can find and hire cleaners, plus a mobile app for cleaning staff to manage assignments.

How does TIDY compare to Turno for cleaning management?

TIDY emphasizes AI-powered scheduling and vendor management with built-in inspections, while Turno focuses more on a marketplace model for finding and booking cleaners. TIDY is better if you have your own cleaning team and want automation; Turno is better if you need to source new cleaners.

Can TIDY scale from a single property to a large portfolio?

Yes. TIDY is designed to scale from 1 property on the free Flex plan up to enterprise operations with custom pricing. The platform handles multi-property scheduling, vendor rotation, and centralized inspection tracking as your portfolio grows.
