Start free trialSet up pre-stay, checkout, and review request messages that send automatically. Personalized with guest names, property details, and check-in instructions.
Sync availability across Airbnb, VRBO, and direct bookings via iCal. No double bookings, no manual updates, no platform switching.
Assign cleaners to turnovers automatically. Track task status, upload verification photos, and monitor per-property cleaning costs.
Track revenue, expenses, and profit per property. Categorize costs, store receipts, and see your actual returns at a glance.
Airbnb and VRBO both require a minimum number of active properties under management before they grant partner API access. Every host who joins Session for STR brings us closer to qualifying.
Once approved, calendars, reservations, messages, and pricing will flow directly between Session for STR and both platforms — no more bouncing back and forth between tabs. Until then, iCal sync and manual channel tracking cover the core availability workflow on all plans.
