Nowistay overview

What is Nowistay?

Nowistay is an all-in-one vacation rental management platform with a fully autonomous AI co-host that handles guest communication without any host intervention. Built for short-term rental hosts and concierge services managing properties across multiple OTAs.

Core Platform

Nowistay centralizes property management, guest messaging, team coordination, and task automation into a single web-based dashboard. It connects to your existing booking channels and takes over the repetitive work — answering guests, scheduling cleaners, sending check-in instructions, and managing access codes.

AI Co-Host — Fully Autonomous

Unlike other platforms where AI drafts a reply and waits for host approval, Nowistay's AI co-host responds to guests directly. It understands your property details, house rules, and booking context. It handles questions, early check-in and late check-out requests, and escalates to you only when necessary. Works 24/7 across all connected channels and languages.

Multi-Channel Guest Messaging

Send and receive messages through Airbnb, Booking.com, WhatsApp, and email from one unified inbox. Set up automated messages triggered by booking events — confirmation, pre-arrival, check-in day, post-checkout. Messages can be delivered via OTA platform, WhatsApp, or email.

Team and Mission Management

Add team members (cleaners, maintenance, managers) and assign them to properties. Nowistay automatically creates cleaning missions when guests check out. Team members receive notifications with property details, checklists, and schedules. Track mission completion with photo verification.

Cleaning and Maintenance Automation

Cleaning tasks are generated automatically based on booking check-out dates. Assign default cleaners per property or let team members pick up available missions. Maintenance and urgency missions follow the same workflow.

Welcome Books

Create digital property guides with check-in codes, house rules, Wi-Fi info, local recommendations, and more. Rich text editor with image and video support. Available in 15 languages. Guests access them via a shareable link before arrival.

Smart Lock Integrations

Connect Nuki, TTLock, or iGloohome smart locks. Nowistay automatically generates unique access codes per booking and delivers them to guests at the right time — no manual code management needed.

Guest Identity Verification

Built-in identity screening powered by Stripe Identity. Guests verify their ID before check-in. Verification links are sent automatically. Status tracking for verified, pending, and failed verifications.

Channel Manager and PMS Integrations

Nowistay connects with major property management systems and channel managers:

- Airbnb (direct OAuth + iCal)

- Booking.com

- Beds24

- Smoobu

- Lodgify

- Hostaway

Bulk import your properties in minutes. Availability, rates, and bookings stay in sync across platforms.

Payments and Direct Bookings

Accept payments for direct bookings via Stripe. Support for full payment or split payment (deposit now, balance before arrival). Payment links sent to guests automatically.

Key benefits of using Nowistay

Stop answering repetitive guest messages. Nowistay's AI co-host handles guest communication autonomously — it doesn't draft replies for you to approve, it responds directly. You get your time back while guests get instant, accurate answers 24/7.

Never miss a cleaning again. When a guest checks out, a cleaning mission is automatically created and sent to your team. Cleaners get the property address, checklist, and schedule on their phone. Track completion with photos.

Manage everything from one place. Properties, bookings, messages, team tasks, and automations — all in a single dashboard. No more switching between Airbnb, WhatsApp, email, and spreadsheets.

Connect the tools you already use. Nowistay integrates with Airbnb, Booking.com, Beds24, Smoobu, Lodgify, and Hostaway. Import your properties in minutes and keep availability and rates in sync.

Automate guest access. Connect your Nuki, TTLock, or iGloohome smart locks and Nowistay generates unique door codes for each booking. Codes are sent to guests automatically — no manual work.

Give guests everything they need before they arrive. Create digital welcome books with check-in instructions, house rules, Wi-Fi passwords, and local tips. Available in 15 languages via a shareable link.

Verify who's checking in. Built-in identity screening lets guests verify their ID before arrival. Verification links are sent automatically as part of the pre-check-in flow.

Scale without hiring. Whether you manage 5 properties or 50, the AI co-host and automation handle the growing workload so you don't need to add staff for every new listing.

Works in any language. The AI co-host communicates with guests in their language. Automated messages and welcome books support multiple languages out of the box.

Keep your team coordinated. Assign cleaners and maintenance staff to properties, share calendars, create mission checklists, and get notified when tasks are completed.
