> Nowistay is vacation rental management software that lets property hosts and concierge services put their guest communication on autopilot — so they can focus on growing their business instead of answering messages all day.&#10;&#10;If you manage short-term rentals on Airbnb, Booking.com, or other platforms, you know the drill: endless guest messages, coordinating cleaners, sending check-in instructions, handling last-minute requests. Nowistay takes all of that off your plate.&#10;&#10;What makes Nowistay different?&#10;&#10;Our AI co-host doesn't just draft replies for you to review — it handles guest conversations entirely on its own. It answers questions, sends check-in details, and even manages early check-in and late check-out requests without you lifting a finger. You only get notified when something truly needs your attention.&#10;&#10;Here's what you can do with Nowistay:&#10;&#10;Let AI handle your guest messages. Connect your Airbnb, Booking.com, or WhatsApp accounts and our AI co-host takes over. It knows your properties, your rules, and your style — and replies to guests in seconds, 24/7, in any language.&#10;&#10;Automate your cleaning and maintenance. When a guest checks out, Nowistay automatically creates a cleaning mission and notifies your team. Your cleaners get all the details they need — property, date, checklist — right on their phone.&#10;&#10;Coordinate your team in one place. Add your cleaners, maintenance staff, and managers. Assign tasks, share calendars, and track mission completion with photos and checklists.&#10;&#10;Send the right message at the right time. Set up automated messages for booking confirmations, check-in instructions, and post-stay follow-ups. They go out automatically through WhatsApp, email, or directly through the booking platform.&#10;&#10;Create beautiful welcome books. Build digital guides for each property with check-in codes, house rules, local recommendations, and more. Available in 15 languages. Your guests get everything they need before they arrive.&#10;&#10;Connect your smart locks. Integrate with Nuki, TTLock, or iGloohome to automatically generate and send door access codes to guests — no manual steps needed.&#10;&#10;Verify guest identity before arrival. Built-in identity screening lets you confirm who's checking in, adding a layer of security to every booking.&#10;&#10;Connect the tools you already use. Nowistay works with Airbnb, Booking.com, Beds24, Smoobu, Lodgify, Hostaway, and more. Import your properties in minutes and keep everything in sync.&#10;&#10;Who is Nowistay for?&#10;&#10;Whether you manage 1 property or 100, Nowistay is built for hosts and concierge services who want to spend less time on repetitive tasks and more time delivering great guest experiences. It's especially powerful for teams who juggle multiple properties across different platforms and need one place to manage it all.&#10;&#10;Getting started is simple. Connect your existing accounts, import your properties, and let the AI co-host start handling your guest communication right away. Most hosts see a dramatic reduction in time spent on messages within the first week.

## About the vendor

- **Company**: Nowistay

## Commercial Context

- **Starting Price**: €0.83
- **Pricing model**: Per Feature (Free version available) (Free Trial)
- **Pricing Details**: Nowistay uses a per-property subscription model. You only pay for the properties you want to manage — no platform-wide fees, no contracts, cancel anytime.&#10;&#10;How pricing works&#10;&#10;Each property you add to Nowistay can be subscribed individually. This means you can start with one property, see how it works, and add more as you grow. You're never paying for features on properties you don't need them on.&#10;&#10;Plans&#10;&#10;Nowistay offers two main plans per property:&#10;&#10;Guide Plan — 10 EUR per property per year. Includes digital welcome books with rich content editing, multi-language support (15 languages), image and video embedding, and shareable guest links. Perfect if you want to give guests a professional check-in experience with house rules, local recommendations, and property instructions.&#10;&#10;Assistant Plan — 9 EUR per property per month, or 90 EUR per property per year (save 2 months). Everything in the Guide plan, plus the fully autonomous AI co-host. The AI handles all guest messaging across Airbnb, Booking.com, WhatsApp, and email — without you needing to review or approve replies. Also includes channel manager with OTA synchronization, automated cleaning mission creation, team coordination, smart lock integrations (Nuki, TTLock, iGloohome), automated message scheduling, and guest identity verification.&#10;&#10;Free trial&#10;&#10;Every new property gets a free trial so you can test all features before committing.
