List with confidence. Book more often.
Stop guessing if your property meets shortlet or rental standards. We're building a verification service where a trained inspector checks your photos, tests amenities, and issues a compliance badge that gives guests a reason to trust the listing.
How Property Audits will work
Here's the process we're building, from request to verified listing.
Request an Audit
Select your property and a preferred date for inspection.
On-Site Inspection
A trained inspector visits, tests appliances, verifies amenities, and captures accurate media.
Digital Report
Get a report with pass/fail items, photo proof, and recommended fixes.
Verified Badge
Properties that pass get a badge on their listing, so guests can see it's been checked.

Why we're building this
"Not as described" is one of the most common complaints in short-term rentals. A standardized inspection gives guests a reason to trust a listing before they book, and gives hosts a clear, prioritized list of what to fix.
- ✓ A verified badge guests can see on your listing
- ✓ A prioritized fix list, not just a pass/fail
- ✓ A report you can keep for your own records
