Most AI tools for vacation rentals draft a reply and wait for you to approve it. Nowistay's AI co-host replies to guests directly on Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, WhatsApp and email, in 90+ languages, 24/7. It knows each property, each booking and your house rules, answers in about a minute on average, and only alerts you when a situation really needs a human. What you can do with Nowistay Run every channel from one calendar. The channel manager keeps rates, availability and bookings in two-way sync with Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia and VRBO, plus iCal for other platforms, so a change made once reaches every channel and double bookings are prevented. Let the AI handle guest conversations. Check-in instructions, Wi-Fi, parking, local tips, and early check-in or late check-out requests: the AI checks with your cleaning team, confirms to the guest, updates the booking times and adjusts the smart lock code. Automate cleaning and maintenance. Each booking creates missions for your team, with photo checklists and notifications by push, WhatsApp or email. Team members get their own dashboard on their phone, with per-member permissions. Give guests a digital welcome guide. Share it by link or QR code, with videos, PDF export and a shop for paid extras. Available in 8 languages with one-click translation, and updates are live for guests instantly. Send door codes automatically. With smart locks such as Nuki, igloohome, TTLock and Tedee, a code is generated, sent and expired for each booking. Take direct bookings with 0% commission. Add a booking widget to your own website, with Stripe payments, security deposits and length-of-stay discounts. Sell paid extras. Early check-in, late check-out, breakfast or transfers, offered by the AI in the conversation and paid through Stripe. Keep your prices competitive. Demand-based rates through the PriceLabs integration, plus per-channel rate adjustments. Work from your AI assistant. Nowistay is an official ChatGPT app and also connects to Claude: check occupancy, update prices, create bookings or message guests in plain language. Who is Nowistay for? Independent hosts who want to stop living in their inbox, and concierge services and property managers who coordinate cleaners, owners and guests across many properties. Setup is quick: import your Airbnb listings in about a minute, connect your channels, and the AI starts answering guests. Pricing Billing is monthly per property with no commitment: 2 EUR per month for the digital welcome guide, 12 EUR per month for the AI Channel Manager, with automatic volume discounts from 5 properties. Every new account gets 30 days of all features for free. > > Verdict: Rated **5.0/5** by 5 users.

And it is evolving ----- ### "Un logiciel performant, complet et en constante évolution" — 5.0/5 > **Gregory** | *1 September 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Nowistay est un logiciel très performant pour la gestion des locations de courte durée. Le point fort est sans conteste la communication avec les voyageurs : le système de réponse par IA est remarquablement naturel et complet — je n'ai pratiquement jamais d'éléments à ajouter aux réponses proposées. Autre grand atout : le logiciel évolue en permanence et intègre continuellement les dernières technologies. On sent une équipe qui fait vivre son produit. > > **Cons**: Honnêtement, je n'ai pas grand-chose à reprocher au logiciel. Comme il évolue rapidement, il faut parfois prendre quelques minutes pour découvrir les nouveautés, mais c'est plutôt un signe de vitalité qu'un réel défaut. > > J'utilise Nowistay depuis plusieurs mois pour gérer mes locations de courte durée et l'expérience est excellente. La gestion quotidienne est fluide, la communication avec les voyageurs est largement automatisée grâce à une IA d'une qualité impressionnante, et les mises à jour régulières apportent sans cesse des améliorations concrètes. J'espère que cela continuera ainsi encore longtemps — je recommande sans hésiter. ----- ### "A découvrir" — 5.0/5 > **Karine** | *31 August 2026* | Leisure, Travel & Tourism | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Nowistay propose un tarif accessible et un abonnement flexible, avec la possibilité de se désabonner à tout moment. La mise en place est relativement simple et le design est clair, agréable et facile à comprendre. Le logiciel permet de centraliser les réservations et les messages provenant de différentes plateformes, ce qui facilite le suivi au quotidien. La gestion des échanges avec les voyageurs, notamment dans plusieurs langues, est également très pratique. L’outil offre déjà de nombreuses possibilités et représente un véritable gain de temps. > > **Cons**: Certains points pourraient être améliorés. Il serait utile de pouvoir regrouper, dans un même abonnement, des propriétés en gestion gratuite et d’autres en gestion payantes. Le bilan financier manque parfois de clarté, notamment dans la distinction entre les montants bruts et nets. Le prix de référence unique est également peu adapté à une activité saisonnière. Certaines informations transmises par les plateformes peuvent manquer de précision, comme la catégorie ou le nombre de voyageurs. Enfin, les réponses automatiques sont parfois trop générales, les informations ne sont pas toujours mémorisées pour les prochaines conversations et le détail des tarifs ou des réductions appliquées pourrait être plus transparent. > > Nowistay est un logiciel agréable à utiliser et très prometteur. Je ne maîtrise pas encore toutes ses fonctionnalités, mais ma première impression est positive. L’outil propose déjà de nombreuses possibilités et répond à plusieurs besoins du quotidien. Certains points peuvent encore être améliorés, ce qui est normal pour un logiciel en pleine évolution, mais l’ensemble est pratique, intéressant et mérite d’être découvert. ----- ### "Nowistay \*\*\*\*\*" — 5.0/5 > **Eric** | *31 August 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Nowistay se distingue par sa grande simplicité d'utilisation, son ergonomie intuitive et la réactivité remarquable de son support client, rendant la gestion quotidienne particulièrement fluide. > > **Cons**: Il peut parfois être compliqué d'avoir une stratégie de prix globale entre les plateformes et Nowistay avec certaines règles qui s'appliquent à partir de Nowistay et d'autres à partir des paramètres des OTA > > Expérience utilisateur très bonne avec un support très réactif (au délà de l'IA pour le support niveau 1) qui apporte une réponse toujours personnalisée et pertinente Les tutos vidéo sont également un très bon support. ----- ### "my life is easy now, beacuase nowistay answer 85% of questions" — 5.0/5 > **Carlos** | *29 September 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Owner hear ideas and apply them. The panel is easy now and i can use it for my employers to see the calendar and they can see the check in check out. With chatgpt i can speak to chat gpt and it can manage nowistay , block dates etc, but it did not do it so good now, but is ok > > **Cons**: need to answer vrbo messages , i think you can easy apply pricelabs in your own software, no need to pay aditional price labs. > > 10/10 , i like it very much, i told bassel i would like to sell the product here in Puerto Rico and USA , also dominican republic, i will spend my own money in marketing, but i need another name for this region, like AIhostreplay , similar ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/543615/Nowistay) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
